Be an interesting year for story lines.

Gronk hasn’t played a full season in over a decade. This whole thing is Brady (and now Gronk) trying to prove it wasn’t Belichick that won those superbowls.

Im not worried a bit.

I thought he was physically hurt and all the injuries mentally put him out of the game, so he hung it up and went off to the WWE. The Pats are trading him to the Bucs for a 4th round pick. Meh.

Roger that.

Saints can fly under the radar all season long.

Lucky to make it a few games and I don't wish for him getting hurt either. . He already has gone down numerous times. Both of them will wind up on IR. Should just ride off in the sunset. Brady rode that defense the entire season. That ain't gonna happen over there.

I guess since he got voted off the masked singer, he decided to go back to football.

Not worried one bit. Our defense will FINALLY get the recognition it deserves but if they get fournette I might worry just a little

I hope they say we'll finish last in the division and we go totally ignored.... all the way to the SuperBowl!

Re: Buccaneers sign Gronkowski
 
Though I'm not concerned about what everyone else is doing in our division, it was a solid low risk move for the Bucs and a good return for the Pats as well. We just need to do us and get over that hump.

I can't wait to see this look on Brady's face at least two times this season.

The only thing the bucs will win is the Emmy for media build up to a 8-8 season . If that o-line don’t step up and protect Igor there going to throw Tom, gronk and Arians in the Gulf of Mexico

On the flip side, if the marriage of Brad-kowski proves to be a dangerous reunion, I can’t wait to see them carve up the Falcons and Panthers twice a year.

Well there’s a chance for the NFC South to be the best division in football, wouldn’t be surprised if 3 teams make the playoffs

True Dat! I just hope that we are one of them.jk I do believe that the NFC will be dominant again. Several years ago we were the dominant division but that was because those teams were built to beat the Saints. Fortunately they could not maintain those teams and we've been the dominant team in the NFC since Drew got here.

Gronk may have a little left in the tank. I'm not taking this signing lightly like some members seem to be. Tom will need a player to run short patterns and Gronk will be there for the dump off passes.

RaginCajun83 04-22-2020 05:31 PM

Re: Buccaneers sign Gronkowski
 
I’m not taking it lightly either, the Buccs will be very competitive this season. Makes it even more important to draft a LB in round 1

This is Tom Brady's call 100%. He needs a player he can trust and to help bring others along.

It most likely signals the trade of OJ Howard.

If the Bucs run up the score on teams, then Brees may have to do what he did in those 7-9 years even with a good defense.
