Bruce Arians: I’ll “Steal Some Ideas” From Tom Brady & Patriots Offense Is Similar To Bucs’
March 24th, 2020
Bucco Bruce Arians says he can’t sleep because he’s so eager to get rolling with his new quarterback, Tom Brady.
They will dive in together and figure where everything fits, Arians explained on national radio today.
“We share very similar philosophies,” Arians told The Rich Eisen Show. “Just throw it to the guy who’s open, and that’s what he’s always done. I think he’s a perfect fit.
“My philosophy’s always been great collaboration with the quarterback, no matter who it’s been. It’s the offense of the Buccaneers. He’s going to come in, he’s going to learn the terminology. He’s all-in. I can’t wait to get started. We’ll steal some ideas from him, whether it be third-down, red zone. What his favorite stuff is, I’m sure it’s in our offense already. Watching their tape, very, very similar stuff. I love collaborating with great minds, and that’s one of the greatest minds ever.”
Brady’s enthusiasm level was extraordinary when they talked, Arians said, and the head coach felt great about the reality of Brady coming to Tampa when they hung up the phone.
“His excitement level was off the charts. I couldn’t wait to go to practice,” Arians said.
Interesting to hear Brady say how the plays Brady likes already will be in the Bucs’ playbook. None of this should be very complicated. The challenge will be the rest of the Bucs, not Brady, performing under extreme pressure.

I’m so jacked up for these two red asses to go all out with an old school mentality. This is exciting as hell!
I hope to catch a game for a JBF party with Joe’s and the Sage.

“The few enlightening commentators and analysts on this site know very clearly
Since the day Jason Gump Licht wobbled into the drs of 1Buc Place , his ineptitute and downfall was and will be proven again this coming year is
He is absolutely clueless building a offensive line”

Joe’s….don’t bury the lead! Ia BA having a boy or a girl?
March 24th, 2020 at 8:40 pm
Joe’s…you give arse clowns like faker, realist and others carte blanche, but you don’t let one of my many alter egos criticize you one iota of a cracker! I say good day sir!

Sounds great. The meeting of 2 great offensive minds. You can bet Arians did not think in the same mode when game planning for Jameis more like how he could get Jameis to play closer to his ceiling and minimize the bonehead plays. Touchdown Tommy will bring a lot to the table mentally and will (if not already) energize his team mates and the fan base hopefully at 43 he will still be able to keep it together on the physical side and stay on the field…….

Yeah it’s really similar they just didn’t have receivers who could get open and separation!! Look what he did with Moss and Cooks!! When he had them the offense looked REEEEALLY similar!! Brady is going to show what this team can do!! It’s going to look like Fitzpatrick made it look for 2 games!! I’m just worried about the season being cut short because of peoples stupidity about this virus!! In 2018 80,00 people died of the flu just in America.. 9 million people caught it!! Those are waaaay higher numbers than this is even globally and that’s just the common flu!!!! Did you ever fear or worry about the flu that year?? Naaaa I’m betting you didn’t!! Because the media didn’t tell you to!!! … A bunch of people died over night in Italy and it gave the press free reign to use scare tactics!! Notice how the narrative is always how many people are dying not how many are living! If you were told by the doctor you have a disease that can kill but you have a 98% chance of surviving it wouldn’t you feel pretty good about those odds??? But no that’s not the way they put it because that doesn’t make people scared!!! It’s a sham!!!

Who says one guy can’t make you a Superbowl contender. He is our big missing piece. We just need to fill some small holes to get to the big game. Licht, start off by signing Suh!

Heinous winston couldnt manuver the pocket, 1 step and brady makes a defense whiff. Very excited

His favorite target used to be Gronk. Let’s hope the Bucs look to get the TEs involved. We certainly have two good ones.

Chip Chipperson says
“one of my many alter egos criticize you one iota”
Well, see? There’s your problem.
• Using multiple usernames avoids accountability
• Criticism of the owners of the website is a sure way to get completely banned
• The people you mentioned have used the same usernames for years.
And finally:
• Too many people assume the Joes single them out…that often is not the case. Sometimes the server runs slow, and it takes time for a comment to post. The system says a comment is being moderated when that happens.
And the system is automated. It sometimes flags comments that it isn’t sure is acceptable. This could be for a wide range of reasons, from a word or phrase to a symbol used or an apparent link. Or using HTML coding in a post.
Usually, one of the Joes approves them shortly, but keep in mind if they spent all of their time watching the comments, they would not have time to find news for us.

Ironically, my response got moderated. But I’m cool with that. It’ll show up.
March 24th, 2020 at 10:44 pm
Pretty much Chip we have posters allowed to babble whatever outlandish garbage they want. Even one notorious poster that I cannot name whose name starts with a T ( I can’t say his name or I will be put into moderation) said in the past it doesn’t matter if a player beats women all that matters is production. So yeah I for one don’t understand how moderation works there is no rules on this site some users are allowed to say whatever garbage they want and others get thrown into moderation just for saying someones name.
March 24th, 2020 at 10:45 pm
Man you literally aren’t allowed to say anything on here.
March 24th, 2020 at 10:46 pm
Hey can the Joes make a rules list. there are so many people that for random words with no meaning behind them get thrown into moderation on this website and with no basis of a known rules list we don’t know what and what not to say.

Throw it to the open guy.Comp[lete the pass to the open guy.
Well said, Tom. OK maybe this will work out ok as long as guys are open inside 20 yards downfield. When the opposing defenses start pressing and blitzing I hope the line can pick up the blitz and I hope Methuselah can grunt out a 30 yard floater once in a while.

And we have spotted the idiot. SorryJack you are the winner. It is morons like you that compare COVID-19 to the flu. The lowest estimates right now are the this virus is 20x (2%) more lethal than the flu (.1%). Imbeciles like you are the problem. Believe it or not the MSM is much more accurate than your state run media news. Stop watching Tucker and Hannity and Trump’s twitter feed. Listen to the experts who basically say idiots like you are the problem.
March 25th, 2020 at 8:49 am
SorryJack maybe you would be ok with 1.8M people dying from the flu but many Americans are not. This virus is 20x (2%) more lethal than the flu. Listen to what the experts are saying and ignore that state run media outlet I am sure your getting all your talking points from.
March 25th, 2020 at 9:37 am
TouchDownTampaBay…you didn’t dispute much of what he said. Not saying he’s right….but he is right that….. During the 2018-2019 season, the CDC estimates 16.5 million people went to a health care provider for the flu and more than 34,000 people died in the U.S. The prior season saw 61,000 deaths.
These are facts that can’t be disputed!
March 25th, 2020 at 11:16 am
Ok ‘87, and if 16.5M people get this virus approximately 330,000 people will die. Comparing flu related deaths to corona virus is nonsensical unless you’re going to put in terms of percentages.
March 25th, 2020 at 11:20 am
Also, this virus is much more contagious than the flu so unchecked many more people would acquire it. That of course ignores the fact that will do have a vaccine for the flu.
March 25th, 2020 at 1:23 pm
Let’s keep the virus off this site… plenty of it elsewhere. Dreams of Brady playing in BA’s offense are getting me through this mess.
