Brown is a two-month rental and the belief is it’s a 1-year deal with significant upside for Brown. He comes off his suspension following Week 8. https://t.co/1V0WvNpynE

Uh, Gronk looked pretty good in his last outing. I watched him flat out-accelerate a DB, put a move on another and dust the guy, and lay a big block on a DE. Not saying Gronk will be all-world Gronk this season, but he's trending up, and in the last game he looked pretty good.
And he doesn't have to be all-world; the Bucs have a lot more weapons than NE had the last few years he was there. He only needs to be above average as a NFL TE, basically not a weakness on the team, and he'll have earned his money.
AB could be a similar kind of addition. IF he still has most of his speed, his other abilities will make him the most dangerous WR on that team.
Of course, his off-the-field issues might make him the most dangerous player on that team before the season is over as well . . . [Reply]

Imagine being Chris fucking Godwin.
Coming off a monster year where you’re looking to make big money and Brady comes into town, you give him your #, he fails to get you the ball, then bangs the table for your team to sign AB :-) [Reply]
The Bucs lost to the Saints and Bears, and should have lost to the Chargers if not for inane playcalling late in the first half. They are a highly penalized team with a QB that is afraid of taking hits, and they haven't used Evans well at all this season, and Brown's signing will only exacerbate that.
The NFC resembles the mid-80s to mid-90s AFC, so they may emerge if someone upsets Seattle, but they are not a team to be feared. [Reply]

If the Chiefs play like the did against the Raiders they won't. Still think the Chiefs thought they could wander on the field and beat the Raiders. Didn't happen. [Reply]
