Why would the Packers be in front of the Bucs when A. The Bucs beat the Packers Head to head and B. The Bucs won their division and were a higher seed.....
Make it make sense.

Ok? The Packers beat the Cowboys in the playoffs. Do you honestly believe that the Bucs gonna beat the Cowboys? No
The Cowboys shit the bed against the Pack. They just didn’t show up. That game was more about the Cowboys shitting the bed than the Pack actually being good.
This is grade school level analysis.
We're not talking about "would be". We're talking about the 2023 season.Jonny wrote: ↑Sat Feb 10, 2024 1:14 pmThis is grade school level analysis.
You and @real bucs fan are being utter homers with this logic. The Raiders beat the Chiefs this year. The Panthers beat Texans who beat us and we beat the Panthers twice. The Packers beat the Chiefs. The Packers looked like the better team in SF.
Bucs could be a better team than the Packers, I believe they are in the same tier in the NFC. We had the same record, they have a younger, more talented roster yet to realize it's full potential. We have proven SB winning vets who are still in their prime. I believe they have the better QB and HC and may have likely upgraded at DC. I don't think it is egregious to say Packers would be better than Bucs in 24.
If Bowers' tape is anything like Howard's no thanks. OJ fell because teams put the tape on and saw what kind of player he really was. Every team except the Bucs of course.Grahamburn wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2024 4:58 pm I do remember O.J Howard being regarded and mocked rather highly. Top 10.
Bowers could fall. Lot of QBs, WRs, OTs, and defensive prospects littered in there.
If he dipped into the 20s it would enter my mind.
Bowers definitely has the production to back up the hype.Bootz wrote: ↑Tue Feb 13, 2024 5:19 pmIf Bowers' tape is anything like Howard's no thanks.

And yet they came into the game saying that didn't matter while also being favored by 3.5 points.
Both outlooks are optimistic imo. Because with the current core that includes Baker, this team has gotten used to winning and competing against some of the best teams. This automatically increases the expectations and standards for ownership, GM, Bowles and players. The Dallas loss in 22 playoffs was a bad taste in the mouth that has been washed out. Those predicting Falcons to win NFC South don't account for a champions' tenacity.13F11B wrote: ↑Wed May 15, 2024 7:57 am There are two ways to look at last season.
1. The Buccaneers were a middle of the road team that overachieved in defeating the Eagles
or
2. The Buccaneers took the better part of the season to gel and were a top 4 team at the end of the season
Given how up and down the league is both options barely have an impact on the upcoming season, but option 2 is the more optimistic of the two.
