Is Tampa’s defence good enough to drag Brady to a Super Bowl like Denver’s did with Manning?
That's the thing, they quietly had a very good defense last year. Todd Bowles might not be a good coach, but he's a great coordinator. Brady just needs to keep it to 25 turnovers and they'll be a playoff team.

They were good against the run but pretty bad against the pass. But they are young I think so they could be a sneaky good team.
Plus, Panthers will probably suck, ATL will probably suck, NO who knows. Could be a sneaky team.
I think the Bucs get in as a wild card, maybe win a game, then get blown out like Dan Marino's Dolphins in 2000.

Pretty bad against the pass isn't really accurate, they were in the top third of the league in DVOA against the pass playing a couple rookies in the secondary for good chunks of the year. Which is miles ahead of how bad they had been the past decade where they were exceptionally bad.

I was going by yards per game and points per game mainly.. But I do see the more analytical stats have them a little better which is nice to see. Yes they have been brutal this passed decade haha.
Go draft a QB this year or next and let Brady go in 2 years and be set up.
With that in mind, I reached out to local and national media members to gauge their thinking right now about a possible college football season. I gave them three choices:
(A) The season will start on time.
(B) The season will be delayed.
(C) There will be no 2020 season.
I received 55 responses. The vast majority, 42 of the 55 (76.4 percent), believe there will be a college football season, but it will be delayed. Nine (16.4 percent) said the season will start on time. Just four (7.3 percent) said the season will be canceled.
think it's too early to say. Over here, the big soccer leagues are preparing to restart games in May in empty stadiums, I have no idea if that's something the NFL would even consider. If not, I wouldn't be surprised if it was delayed by a couple of months.
NFL might be the only sports league in the world that could survive without live gate because the TV deal is so huge. Cap might have to go down a bit to make it work, but it's not like baseball or hockey which desperately need the gate money to be viable.

A couple of positive tests could shut it all down.
Oh for sure...but i'm assuming that the money juggernaut the NFL is, will be able to deal with all constraints imposed on them by authorities.
Whether it be everyone who will be in that stadium on gameday has to to test on wednesday and be cleared as negative by Saturday (doable now) and be in a hotel/facility from that testing day forward to game completion. Maybe limit where games are played to a dozen sites or so. Or maybe two sites per division and structure games to be played saturday and sunday if the ncaa isnt going to be going.
They just have so many more resources that other leagues dont (sans the NBA) and dont rely on in game attendance nearly s much as others...that they will find a way. They would own the airwaves with the most ridiculous ratings ever if it gets to that point.
Its funny though because usually training camp starts in late July and Im not convinced that will be doable safely at this point. Not sure how that affects things down the line. Maybe a 12 game schedule? Its why i dont believe we see NHL hockey again until very late this calendar year, if at all.
All guesses at this point cause thats all anyone has.

Picked a bad year to try and return with the best class of WR maybe ever assembled.
Quote:
Former NFL wide receiver Percy Harvin told ESPN's Josina Anderson that he wants to return to football.
Harvin, who has not played since the 2016 season and battled numerous injuries throughout his career, told Anderson that he is "ready to return to the NFL."
"I thought I was done, but that itch came back," Harvin told Anderson on Tuesday.
Might get a look as a depth guy or special team returner...he was really good at that at one time.
They wouldn't let Bret Hart just drop it when he was leaving, so I want a match, complete with a 1997 Survivor Series, Montreal screwjob type result. BB in the role of Vinny Mac ring-side watching Gronk get prematurely counted out.
