Tom Brady and the Bucs Oline (1 Viewer)

[Nightshade]

I can see this turning out really bad, Brady has never been much of a scrambler and at 41 years old he's basically a statue in the pocket now. Winston is a mobile and still got sacked a lot.

Wires will help but the rest of that line is shakey at best.

Cam Jordan, Marcus Davenport and Zach Baun should have their way with Brady.

Depends on who is guarding his receivers.

Even worser now he is 97 in dog years.

We have a great O-line, but Brees helps them by getting the ball out quick.

The Bucs had a slightly below average o-line last season. Winston took a lot of sacks because Arians system pushes the ball down the field and the play has to develop, plus he’s not the best of decision makers. I believe that the o-line can easily be average or even above average with Brady’s ability to get the ball out quick and the upgrade at LT from the draft.

Let’s add Everson griffen too so he really can’t move.

.

OP may have meant Wirf but I agree that wires would also help. If they can get away with it.

It was the grace of God that they landed Wirfs who was the best player they could have had at that spot. Tom will still have to show that he can excel out of a New England oline

 

[Super]

Man I didn’t realize he was only 26. Is that true.? If I think he made a very wise long term decision to come here and learn from a real QB and coach.

I just don't think they have the players for that style. They have big, downfield playmakers at WR. They don't want to run a bunch of curls, outs , and slants all season. And their coach doesn't want them to either. Bruce Arians sold the Bucs soul thinking he is getting 2007 Brady. That's the type of offense he expects to run.

This has the potential to blow up horribly if they think they are going to run the same offense Jameis just did.

Totally agree. Arians wants a vertical, downfield passing attack. At least he did last year with Jameis. Let’s see if he changes to better suit Brady’s game at this late stage in his career.

He wont have a guaranteed 6 wins in division before the season begins.... He will face three very good QB's... one of whom is the GOAT rather than 3 journeymen,,, He wont have the protection he is used to.....

I imagine he is counting on the refs to bail him out as they always did.... And in that he may be right
