Whats up Slim! Been many a years ago and we talked ballgames. Tampa for me. Hard to beat a team 3 times. Concerning is the defense though. Lots of nice pieces for Tampa but I just can’t figure out where they keep slacking. They have speed with those backers which is a plus vs a back like Kamara. Size at CB but the secondary seems to be slipping of late.
Tampa needs to take shots down field early. Incomplete or not they need to push the D back. They have good pieces all around by position. I like them better coming more under the Radar as the hype drifted away. Saints are solid also but seem weak a LB vs TE and Speed. CB on paper looks good and playing really good of late. They had problems early on which was odd. Saints will always be a force vs the run. Tampa has a good line and backs, they can lean on them a bit. Both Brady and Drew just don’t seem to push the ball upfield with shots these days. Well balanced game for both teams all around. Should be a good one. Be nice to see Brady work Goodwin and Brown a bunch here. He seems to like Evans though. If the Bucs spread it around more and stick with running it I believe all around they have the advantage.
Tampa will be the play imo. GL
They are top 1/3 imo. Not great but not bad by any means. DC Bowles is High Pressure guy. Stats are so subjective I wouldn’t get to wrapped up in them. I’d say you find Tampa Top 7 sacks, Blitz % and KD.
Saints and Brees are just not a team that uses a lot of time in the pocket play wise. Drew takes sacks on those few PA calls. He just doesn’t seem to care about long plays or extending them. A bit to the tune of what the poster above mentions. It’s always a plus if you can gear a lot of pressure but vs the Saints I don’t know if it’s a must have due to their system.
