Cam sucked, they also paid him 500K guaranteed, so they obviously knew what they were getting, even if their hopes were high on a revival. BB won a playoff game with Testeverde. He won ten games with Cassel and probably would have gone far in the playoffs if the NFL's seeding wasn't such a mess and let teams with losing records get in.So Belichick's got all the answers for Mac jones as well, right? We should be expecting a Super Bowl title soon. But then again, what happened in 2020 with Cam? Didn't have all the answers to the test that year? Bledsoe in 2000? Kosar and Testaverde? Funny how having all the answers only works with Brady.
Mike Evans is their #1 WR. Gronk's pretty good also, so are all their other weapons. Just because Tom didn't have a couple weapons didn't stop them from scoring.You're hopelessly ridiculous. You said the Bucs had basically the same exact team. I point out how WRONG you are by reminding you they were down their #1 and #3 WRs and your reply is being without your #1 and #3 WRs doesn't matter. ************.
The 2020 Bucs learned a hard lesson in week 9 when they set an NFL record for fewest rushing attempts in a single game and got thrashed by New Orleans. How do we know they learned a lesson?Here again you're WRONG. Go ahead tell me this doesn't matter either:
2020 Bucs Rushing Offense:
Attempts: 29th
Yards: 28th
Because they led the entire 2020 NFL postseason in rushing attempts, rushing attempts per game and ran their offense through their RB's, they rode Fournette like a rented mule.
He led the NFL postseason in rushing attempts, yards, rushing TD's and first downs... he also had the 4th most receptions, so when they weren't running him they were passing to him. Ronald Jones was 4th in attempts... they clearly ran the ball in the postseason.
WRONG is what you are all the time... you should probably stop disagreeing with me so much.
They averaged 78 yards rushing per game in the 2021 postseason.2021 Bucs Rushing Offense:
Attempts: 31th
Yards: 26th
Winston sucked... that's a revelation?The Bucs run a pass first and often offense... this was before Brady even got there. They were 1st, 2nd & 1st in passing offense from 2019-2021. The big difference was transitioning from Winston to Brady which cutout a ton of inefficiency, mistakes and turnovers. That's right, Brady made the difference, he made the Bucs a Super Bowl contender. They probably could have been the #1 seed last season had their offense not completely fallen apart with injuries... that second Saints game they were without Brown and then Evans and Godwin went out before halftime. They still managed to get by (on one occasion with a miracle finish by Brady) until the Rams matchup when they just didn't have enough firepower to get through it. Too many injuries and a collapse on defense ended their season.
You don't recall 2001, 2003, or 2004?I don't recall a season when Edelman, Brown and Pattern were their 1-3 WRs. I mean what's your point here anyway?... because he won with lesser WRs he then should have been able to suddenly get by with Grayson and Perriman over Godwin and AB?
In your defense you were probably five years old, but that must be where your reimagining of Brady as a magical superhero savior comes from.
Brady won rings with a lot less than the Bucs had in 2021, it took a team and realizing that running the ball to keep opponents on the sideline is an option. I suspect that's why Brady got Arians fired... even Tom knew better.
Peyton Manning was coming off a broken neck and could only play because he borrowed his wife's HGH prescription... oh yeah, and after he got beat out in the regular season as starter by Brock Osweiler... but you must have forgotten that... along with his 59% completion percentage, his 9 TD's/17 INT's ratio... or his career low 6.8 yards per attempt and 224 yards per game... funny how you forgot all of that, or how he retired immediately after his rushing attack and defense carried him to his final ring.The 2015 Broncos had Peyton Manning, one of the greatest QBs of all-time, and he actually was a detriment to the team winning.
2000 Ravens had a good running game, not great. Lewis and Holmes didn't receive any accolades in the 2000 season. Their passing offense was bottom third in the league, which is being polite, so I don't care who their receivers were, their QBs sucked. Their all-world defense gets 85% of the credit for that Super Bowl... probably more in the postseason when they gave up 3, 10, 3 & 7 points.
Again, you're meandering, so try to stay on track... we're talking about the 2002 Bucs... more than half of those players didn't make the pro bowl. Their offense ranked 18th in scoring and 24th in yards whereas their defense was 1st in both. In 3 postseason games their defense forced 13 turnovers... they completely dominated that season start to finish. The rest of their team was mediocre at best.
We can talk fantasy football if you'd like but otherwise I think we've established here that we're talking actual football.
Right the 2012 Ravens and yes they were an average team THAT season...
Offense:
15th in yards
15th in first downs
15th in passing
11th in rushing
Defense:
17th in yards
21st in first downs
17th in passing
20th in rushing
Those are actual rankings and they reflect an average team. They limped into the postseason but their quarterback caught fire and carried them to a Super Bowl title.
You have a sht ton of excuses for why a large number of average QB's won rings... I mean you go on and on with the excuses and all you do is reinforce my position that you don't need the GOAT to win rings.That Super Bowl result is an anomaly because you had the unprecedented occurrence of a head coach inexplicably benching a vitally important player which had an obvious detrimental impact on the outcome of the game.
Exactly... in your mind Tom Brady is the only good QB to have ever played the game. You're a delusional fanboy.There's only one GOAT... that's how it works. If I had an example of another quarterback dominating postseason game-winning drives then I would give it to you. There isn't one.
