Saints can handle a Brady-Gronk Reunion in the NFC South

The New Orleans Saints are the reigning NFC South Champions. A Brady-Gronkowski reunion in Tampa will seek to dethrone Brees and the Saints. Here are few reasons why the Saints can handle this reunion in the NFC South.

I think we can and will handle it. The only thing I worry about is the league wanting the bucs to succeed because of Brady and Gronk. My gut says they want to see a Brady vs Belichick super bowl.

Saw this on Bucs reddit page, I chuckle

5 years ago I would have been worried about Gronk and Brady reuniting in Tampa. Not now.

Just about my sentiments. Brady and Gronk could be 100 years old and on ventilators, and I'd be terrified that the league is going to screw us just to advance that narrative.

They are used to going up against the Dolphins, bills, and jets lol

Oh ya & twice a year

They are up for a rude awakening

The only challenge in the division is really us. Atlanta is a question mark. Carolina has no chance.

Also, one of the weakest AFC divisions on the schedule. KC and the other three from the AFC West.

And TB plays the Giants and Rams while we have the Eagles and 49ers, who should be better again than the former two.

Division is going to be incredibly tough this year. Carolina is by far the weakest team and I could see them winning 6-7 games.

The Bucs will certainly be better, even if it’s with these old guys joining. I’m not scared of playing them by any means, but they should be better league-wide, I’d think. Will definitely be interesting to see what kind of season they have.

Gronk is Gronk dude still is a matchup nightmare I guarantee you! We were decent against TEs last year not named Kittle , Gronk is on that level or better Does this make our need at LB more pressing ? no I sure wouldn’t mind seeing 16 Healthy games from Analonze though

How is Gronk's in-line blocking as a TE? I seem to recall he was OK, at best, and I don't hear about Tompa Bay picking up any quality o-linemen. Those new toys in Florida are gonna get broke.

One of the best in the league. Not quite Kittle but he’s very good. We’ll see though. He certainly lost a lot of weight in retirement, I’m sure he’ll put most that back on though.

That reunion doesn't bother me in the least. One or both will never make it through a full season. Brady got his pay day, the Bucs will sell tickets...that's the main plan here. Plus Brady is in for a rude awakening when he finds out the NFC South is not the AFC East. Our worst team is better than both the Jets and the Fins.

Honestly, if the Bucs win the division and become the first team to play at home in the Superbowl I will probably be done with the NFL.

The league sucks at advancing matchups. The Chiefs won it last year.
