Tom's mental ability to quickly analyze defenses and react accordingly has always been his greatest strength.

This is the defining trait of a franchise QB. Brady has off the charts intangibles and a competitive fire. No one will say that he is the best athlete on the field but he knows how to win. Peyton Manning is a poor athlete but was cerebral and studied his craft the hardest. Our next QB has to have these traits, not just the strongest arm or the fastest 40 time.

TB12 deleted their congrats stuff…I have a feeling he’s done but something got out that wasn’t supposed to yet.

FWIW, an article I read earlier, which was from cbs sports, said those closest to him were expecting him to make an announcement this coming week.  The thinking being he respects the game too much to overshadow the games tomorrow or make the announcement during Super Bowl week.  Waiting until the dust has settled from the Super Bowl would put the Bucs in a lurch, assuming his decision is to hang them up.

Those same people expect he will retire, but nobody has said he has finalized that decision.

Both Peyton and Brady had huge arms in their primes. They were just statues. They definitely had to rely on their brains when they got up in age but these weren’t some chad Penningtons. They could chuck the fug out of the ball.

      Legette as a TE

      "Listed at 6'3"" He measured 6'1" at the combine, he'd be better off in a Cordarelle Patterson or SF Deebo type of role than as a TE.

      This is good on many accounts. We've talked about his game management skills and being overwhelmed trying to do too much.  We've talked about his inconsistent offense and how maybe it would be better if someone else was the oc.  We also saw how bad idziks offense was in the preseason.  This move along with bevels hire addresses all of this.  They know they can't back into the playoffs with a losing record again. They are actively trying to improve.  Will it work? TBD. But they are definitely trying and seem to have a plan
