OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[carmelo15]

You think so? Rodgers for whatever is a very bad matchup for the Rams!

There defense can get after him and Ramsey can erase Adams while there offense puts up numbers. I don’t see GB getting passed either LA or Tampa

The past two games the Rams defense hasn't been able to slow them down. The Packers move Adams around and in the slot as well

I doubt LA can go to GB and beat them in January...Packers are getting reinforcements too, including David Bakhtiari who didn't play vs Tampa last year, and Jaire Alexander.

 

[Tottie]

Speaking of LA's defense did you guys see that last game Donald had 15 pressures. 15. How is that possible? Did they not double him or chip him? Coaches should be sent to the curb.

Yup Bakhtiari is a top 3 tackle in the game so he will definitely help. They did lose Billy Turner though and he was having a monster season for them in the Oline.

That's what I was getting at! A Rams/Packers Divisional round matchup will be a very interesting game,as would a Cowboys/Packers Divisional round matchup! A Cowboys/Rams wildcard matchup would also be all kinds of fireworks! Of course I would love for Tampa to lock up the 1 seed when all the smoke settles! However after further examining this year's playoff landscape,I think the 2 seed just might be the easiest path to the Superbowl in the NFC!

I blame Kliff Kingsbury 100% for that buffoonery!

 

[amfootball]

I really want Tampa to get that top seed. They are undefeated at home.

 

[venecol]

The #2 seed scenario works as long as Rams stay at #5. If Arizona falters and loses division to Rams, they now fall to #5 and Bucs would play Rams in Tpa, if top 4 hold serve (assuming Boys stay at #4).

The second seed will be the easiest path

With Hopkins now missing the rest of the regular season in Arizona, Dallas should get the 3 seed.

Packers vs. Rams/Cards divisional

Bucs vs Dallas divisional

Rams could sneak in as the 3 seed too

Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins suffered a knee injury on Monday night that will likely keep him out for the next few weeks.

Hopkins is expected to miss the rest of the regular season with a sprained knee but could return in the playoffs, according to ESPN.

Surgery is a possibility but Hopkins will get a second opinion before deciding on that.

DeAndre Hopkins likely to miss rest of regular season, return for postseason - ProFootballTalk

Cardinals’ WR DeAndre Hopkins is expected to miss the rest of the regular season with a sprained knee, but the team is hopeful to get him back at some point in the postseason, leagues sources tell me and @JFowlerESPN

Hopkins is seeking a second opinion with Dr. Neal ElAttrache. It is still uncertain whether Hopkins will need surgery. But either way, his regular is believed to have to come an end.

That is a huge loss for Cards especially given their remaining schedule.

I think we all may be underestimating that the league likes the story of a 44 year old Brady winning MVP especially since he just won SI sports person of the year and has broken multiple legacy records this season.

The Lambs might end up winning the division! I hope not! The 49ers aren't going anywhere either!

Yeah. I feel that way too. If Covid does not completely decimate them, they are surging right now. Beckham looks rejuvenated too which is scary.

and for the past 20 years the mvp always goes to the QB with the highest stats on a good team.

It will be no different this year IMO. I think we may still have Patriots PTSD at play too thinking that Brady will be snubbed. His perception in the media did a 180 once he left us and went to Tampa and won the SB. He is almost universally loved and revered now. I don't believe the voters are looking to not give it him because of any bias even though there may be some from a few, I think they genuinely respect what the guy has been doing this year at his age as defending champ which is why his odds are so high right now to win it.

NFL.com has Rodgers as 1

Rams would be better with Woods over Beckham. Beckham just saved from from outright disaster.
