OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[RicoG]

Agreed.

No defensive could have stopped Allen last night. He played as good as one could ever play position. It was incredible to watch him.

He threw impossible to defend passes and ran like a RB. I can't see him keep that up but if he does I don't see any team beating the Bills

Brady as Pats QB is at least 2 or 3 wins. For starters, the Bucs would still stink and that would have been an easy win. Pat's record likely 13-4 at worst and with a 1st round bye.

Bucs without Brady and his buddy Gronk would be a 6 win team.

 

[Lagaffe_07]

It worked...I mean tampa did win pretty easy

But it was not because of the running game. I’ll give the the RZ they run well there. Otherwise it was the same stuff as usual. Run for 2 yds on 1st down and counting on Brady to bailed them out on 3rd and 5+. Eagle we’re teeing off on every 3rd down because they knew they were passing. Imagine what will happen when they will play a good teams that have a pass rush and can cover.

Watching Mike Evans with all those other offensive stars is like watching Dwyane Wade on the Heat or some other star who had to neuter his game to make the scheme work. Evans as the true #1 receiver running all the routes is a site to behold. He is so much better than I thought all this time.

Evans played with bad and sloppy QBs for his 1st 6 years. Brady has had to coach him up the last 2 years and he is really becoming an all round receiver, not just a deep threat and red zone target.

 

[Lagaffe_07]

I don't know what to tell you. They had multiple big negative runs when killing the clock, and those dropped the numbers down.

They had 2 negative runs in the 4th quarter for a total of -7 yards.

Edit: We clearly don’t have the same definition of multiple big negative runs

Remarkable that a majority of MVP voters think someone else is the MVP of the league.

I wouldn't bet on GB winning their game next week either. There is nothing about them that makes them better than the Bucs or even Cowboys, Rams, Bills, and Chiefs.

The only team i fear is the Rams.

 

[RicoG]

Lol. It doesn't take much to get Bucs franchise records.

Nah. They'd probably be 9-8. That's an elite defensive unit.

 

[VectorPrime]

Lol. It doesn't take much to get Bucs franchise records.

Well they have some impressive defensive records. That’s it.

 

[RicoG]

I really hope the Bucs play the Cardinals. I guess I'm rooting for the 49rs.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

Yeah....no one wants any part of the 49ers right now. They've been absolutely balling out for quite some time. Dominant in the trenches, plus Samuel and Kittle to worry about.

By the way, Aaaaaaron is 0-3 against the 49ers in the postseason in his career, but I'd say the relevant game is the drubbing he took in 2019, completely turtle shelling while the team needed him to answer (trailed 34-7 in the fourth quarter), before finally taking advantage of garbage time to pad his stats.

But, knowing the Packers luck this year, they'll get the 49ers with Trey Lance, while Kittle, Samuel, Bosa, and Warner are all out for the game.

He had 3 beautiful routes today

 

[RicoG]

Bucs without Brady and his buddy Gronk would be a 6 win team.

They were 7-9 before Brady with mostly the same players. I say 8-9.

 

[Lagaffe_07]

They were 7-9 before Brady with mostly the same players. I say 8-9.

Without the injury yes. With the injuries probably a 5-6 win team

 

[RicoG]

I would have loved to watch the whole game, missed it until half way through the 3rd quarter.

 

[Pats1971]

They were 7-9 before Brady with mostly the same players. I say 8-9.

7-9 was their high point. lol Team had not won a playoff game in 18 years, now they have 5 in two years.

If Bucs were not to make it to the SB, I want it against SF. I'm rooting for JG. I hope he sticks it to SF and leaves them for a team that doesn't continuely diss him.

But with all JG injuries, it's still hard to figure out exactly how high his ceiling is. If he plays well this playoffs, I wonder if the Pats should take a good look at him again.

 

[VectorPrime]

Brady gonna win 11 or 12 (depends on next years seeding) straight playoff games as a Buc and retire with the threepeat.

I want Brady to win it this year and then walk. So I can stop watching the NFL and listening to idiot media
