POLL Bold stuff: Pick your AFC and NFC opponents in the 2017 Superb Owl

The Bucs were in a Tough Division last year, went 4-2 and Finished 2nd. Then added the most weapons any team has added since the end of the season. While Losing Nothing, well an average at best Safety, who was replaced.

Well they may have added the most unproven weapons since season's end?

Last year I thought it would be Arizona all the way vs New England.

If LB Jaylon Smith turns out good I say Dallas vs New England. Patriots are adding part to help Brady even more and this SB becomes the most watched TV event in the history of our country.

I guess Jackson is Unproven. Even before Goodwin was picked by the Bucs I was on record as saying he would be the best WR in this Draft. Howard can be a complete Bust and Tampa has still gotten Dangerous on Offense. People wonder why they did not take a RB earlier. Safeties will not be in the Box, All RBs get better when there are only 7 men in the box. Add in Brate and no Team in the NFL has improved on one side of the Ball as much as Tampa.

Dirt and Strongo back together...

 

[NEhomer]

Nice to see you back again Dirt.

 

[Rock Strongo]

Pats and GB or Pats and Dallas so far.

 

[Carnzo]

I picked Pat's Cowboys earlier without thinking about Dallas not really having a quality back up QB.
Shit, may as well stick with it, the TV build up would be epic.

All rookies are unproven. Could they become superstars? Sure Tom Brady was picked #199. Anything is possible. Like Tampa NE ans already strong roster didn't lose anyone of significance. Through FA where they picked up multiple proven players they vastly improved on both sides of the ball. Just saying it's not as clear as you'd like to make it sound that Tampa is clearly the most improved. I'd submit Cleveland, SF and Oak may be on the same level of improvement as Tampa if not better.
Let's get though camps and see who's on the 45 man game day rosters and then re-evaluate?

Not especially. We are keeping the same exact offense. Ryan will be given more flexibility and control over the play calling from the line. If anything we should be able to play faster and with more freedom. It'd be different if the QB was inexperienced or we were changing the offense but neither is the case

Your full of crap. I don't care if you got the last OC play book, the new OC well just be trying to call the plays in a similar fashion , but with his own twist. In short, the offense will definitely be different this year. You can take that to the bank. Being very familiar with your new OC, I'd brace myself for a massive disappointment if I was you.

Maybe. As of now Ryan will be doing the majority of the play calling from the line until Sark is fully ready so I'm not too worried. Ultimately talent wins out most of the time anyway

See already the play calling will be different ( with the QB calling the plays). Besides defense usually wins over offense. I'd be worried if I was you. Also one last note....your going to hate your new OC, bank on it.

Well yeah the play calling will be different. 2 different people aren't going to call the sane exact game. Ultimately the execution should be the same though and that's all that concerns me

MIght be the only thing that concerns you now, but give it some time.

Jackson is not a Rookie. The Draft was just Icing on the Cake. The scheme in which these players will play in is Tailor Made for them. Forget Rookies, Jackson and Evans alone will make it so much easier on the RB and Brate. Add in a Howard or Goodwin and its just a Bonus.

You may be right. Only time will tell but right now I'm excited about the ability to play faster. Could lead to even more production. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just not worried right now

RB and S were pre draft concerns and they still are. Howard is likely going to be a very very good player. The FAs add to the teams roster. Again I'm just not sold they had the best off season. Nor do the so called pros. Nice upgrades but I'm thinking they need to get a WC to make the playoffs.

Giants Vs Steelers

Big Ben or Eli gets a 3rd ring.

 

[Rock Strongo]

pats and GB or pats and dallas it seems.
