OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[VectorPrime]

No Gronk or AB. That's not good at all. This may be closer than I thought.

Bears are worse. Bucs are better. It’s not on the road on a Thursday night.

Doesn’t Arians usually give specifics about injuries? I wonder what AB is dealing with. Seems like every time he reaches his peak connection with Brady, he gets sidetracked with an injury that no one even noticed.

LOL Brady bringing the Michigan smack:

Ankle sprain

Ankle sprain

Wondering about severity.

Hope it’s a low ankle sprain

I don't have anything on that. But, I'm assuming that we'd already have heard about it if there was a strong chance of him missing next week's game against the Saints.

I’d like to see the Bucs run that ”pony” formation with Fournette and Bernard in the backfield next to Brady. Patriots ran it at times with White and Burkhead. It’s rare to have two stellar YAC running backs.

idk. Gronk was almost a game time decision after a week of at least being limited at practice. That was almost a month ago.

Graham out for CHI.

I'd run it down their throats if I'm the Bucs. Quinn and Gipson are out. A bunch of front 7 are banged up.

That's a good thing....









for Chicago.

PFF article on Bucs use of personnel and tweaks to their run/PA play.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' offense, a test case of multiplicity and counter-punching

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost a few steps from 2020, and instead of relying on quarterback Tom Brady to solve it all in the dropback game, the offense found another way to punish defenses.

Graham out for CHI.

Graham as in Jimmy Graham? That hasbeen is still in the league?

Potential HOF the Bucs have on offense:
Brady and Gronk for sure.
AB almost a certainty.
Evan's building a strong case.

Defense is not so obvious to me:
Which ones have a decent chance of Lavonte David, Suh, JPP, Sherman.

 

[RicoG]

Bucs roster have 8 players who has the resume to be considered in the HOF.

How about the Pat's roster the last couple years.
Edelman was close in my opinion but needed at least one more strong playoff run and a couple seasons.
Does any of Gilmour, Hightower, White, Mccourty have enough of a resume to be considered for HOF.
Anyone else I miss not inc BB?

He scored a TD in their loss last year but yea.
