OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[Pats1971]

I'm convinced nobody is stopping the Tampa offense with a healthy AB and Gronk. We have to remember the Bills going into the game had the #1 defense in a lot of metrics. Those 33 points were not easy

Nobody threw on the Bills the way tampa did today.

 

[amfootball]

Yeah. I was really pleased with the Tampa passing game overall. That is the best defense and they really had their way with them during stretches of the game and Evans was a monster. Great to see. Will need that in the post-season.

I didn't watch the game only portions I saw the play were TB sneaked it in for a 1st why was he fighting vs the Bills Lineman?

Bucs coach Bruce Arians on Tom Brady sacrificing his body to run for first down. “That’s enough of that ****.”

 

[Deus Irae]

Bills entered the game as the league’s No. 1 defense, allowing 272 yards per game. The Bucs shredded them for 303 total yards in the first half alone. Tom Brady went 19 of 26 for 216 yards with one TD pass to Mike Evans and another TD rushing.

Breshad Perriman’s shirt says it all: “Beyond your wildest dreams.” Said it feels “amazing” to catch a 58-yard touchdown from Tom Brady in overtime.

Well, there's that one team that didn't allow a single passing TD to Tampa...do you remember which one?

 

[Deus Irae]

Bucs defense held Bills offense to 2-for-13 (15 percent) on third downs in today's win. Tampa Bay hasn't allowed that many attempts and given up so few conversions since a 2005 loss to 49ers where they went 2-for-16.

You can clearly see it. He’s looking to the left for Evans/Godwin. Scans to the middle. Then sees Perriman has a linebacker on him and releases immediately.

Arians on Perriman: “He had a great year here (two) years ago. … He’s the best third option we have right now.” #Bucs

Miller and Johnson are looking for the number of the bus they just got thrown under...

That was exactly the type of route Vertical Miller can’t run.

I keep watching it over and over. Brady completely manipulates the defense with his eyes has everybody shifting left moves in the pocket sees perriman and puts the ball right out in front of him so he can catch turn and go for the touch down.
Just perfection. So fitting for that touchdown to be his 700 career touchdown.

Before Bucs beat Bills in overtime today, NFL teams that were outscored in the second half by 21 points or more were 1-58 since Nov. 2015, the only exception being the Browns' 41-35 win over Titans last year.

Since Tom Brady came into the league in 2000, NFL teams were outscored in the second half by 21 or more points 252 times, and managed to still win just three times before Bucs did so today vs. Bills. Worked out to a 1.2 percent win rate.

 

[Deus Irae]

Bucs can clinch NFC South title and their first division crown since 2007 with a win at home vs. Saints next week. If Bucs lose that game, they still clinch the division with any Bucs win or Saints loss in the final three weeks.

Eh that was a weird game which we lost btw. I can see us beating Tampa but it would have to be a great game by our offense. That game Gronk didn't play

I mean it was raining, but Mac played just fine in that game. Also, we didn't have Trent Brown, who is obviously a major part of our offense, and Rham. And it was Mac's 4th game as a pro. Pretty sure we can hang with them if we meet again.

The game that made Brady 1-0 against Bill?

Yes, his worst game of the season

I think Brady takes a win over stats every time.
