No, them trying to “highlight” their new editions more than the already established players has done that.

Something was off with them vs the Giants too.

It did seem like they were just forcing AB into the game before giving him a chance to learn the playbook.

Who they highlighted at the skill positions didn’t matter. Their Oline got manhandled.

They ran the ball 4 or 5 times and fournette got 1 carry.

More excuses. The Saints own that team.

Their WR group was probably the best in the NFL.

I have no idea why they would potentially upset that. The chances that Brown doesn't say something that pisses someone off at some point is basically nil.

The Saints owned the line of scrimmage on both sides. Yes, sometimes it’s really that simple.

Agreed. Saints O line was pretty solid as well.

I can’t imagine Godwin and Evan’s were happy about adding Gronk and Brown to siphon off essentially all of their targets. Should have invested in more OL instead

I can't imagine anyone on the team liked it when Brown got a first down reception and celebrated like he got a td, down 0-31.

I'm curious to see how this Bucs team handles some adversity.

Winning makes a lot of things tolerable, but I get the feeling that locker room has serious potential to be toxic. Brown and Fournette both have reputations for making messes, and who knows how the Brady/Gronk "we're the Patriots, do what I say" dynamic plays out when shite goes wrong.

tom brady sucks under pressure. the saints manhandled their line and kept pressure on him.

This is def a sign....... you are NOT gonna win an NFL game by rushing the ball only 5 times..... yes the Saints dominated them early , but they still had a chance to run an offense with some balance and keep that hot Saints off the field.... what I saw was panic by the Ztampa offense.

Nah adding gronk is fine, oj is always hurt.

Adding brown? Definitely something is gonna be up in the wr room. That's Evans and godwins room 50/50 and now they have a distraction

The WR room has been just has hurt as the TEs like OJ Howard so your logic is a little inconsistent

Well I really don’t care about how many so called weapons they have. The Saints got pressure on Brady all night. That’s how you beat a Brady led team. And the Saints offense was on fire.

Yeah but gronk is not a headcase and a cancer who complains about targets, so bringing him in isn't a bad idea.

While Godwin has been hurt, other guys have stepped up but it's a clear 1a/1b last year. Brown ruins that
