azgreg FauxAmish Any chance the original op can change the date to 2022 ? Or better yet "The NFL Thread".
Sneakylong garyt1957 Talking without saying much comes from being under Belichick for all those years. He’s not naturally funny like Peyton Manning and may not be as good in the booth as Romo. But he’ll bring his own set of skills and knowledge. Whether that translates into success is yet to be seen. If Brady has proven anything. It’s a bad bet to bet against him.
Subsonic I listened to an interview by an author that wrote a book on Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. What was interesting is he said their personal characters are exactly opposite of their pubic ones. Tom is just a likeable dude who hung out with him all afternoon. Peyton was corporate and kept him on a stopwatch. I think Tom will do just fine...
Sneakylong Subsonic Tom is just a likeable dude who hung out with him all afternoon. This is what every player who's played with him says about Brady. Guys who expected to dislike him end up liking him. He treats everyone the same. James Harris comes to mind. When he came to the Patriots from Pittsburg he expected to dislike Brady, but ended up liking Brady. Hard to fake likability.
Sneakylong Bucs have a tough schedule for 2022. Bengals, Packers, Chiefs, Rams, Cardinals, Cowboys, Niners, Steelers and Browns.
Sneakylong sdandrea1 Gronk will be back. He just doesn't want to go thru all the OTA's etc.. He doesn't need that anyway. Would love to see Edelman, but don't think that will happen.
Sneakylong rsvman2 Those are all the non divisional opponents. Yeah, the Cowboys seemed to have regressed.
Spuzz Par4QC They don't even need them, wide receivers. Seriously, they should employ the Wishbone offence and be done with it.
MartinD Par4QC Along the same lines - Tom Brady was drafted before one of his teammates for the upcoming season was born: https://brobible.com/sports/article/buccaneers-tom-brady-logan-hall-age/
Sneakylong Par4QC Several reasons for Brady’s longevity. One being he avoids bit hits because he gets rid of the ball so quickly. Being a slow runner is an attribute for him. Being so slow he doesn’t take off running very much and risk injury. Former Pats nose tackle Vince Wilfork said he could beat Brady in a race. Lol
