Antonio Brown “Is 100 Miles Per Hour”
July 31st, 2021Antonio Brown is not the fastest receiver on the Bucs. That honor goes to Scotty Miller.
However, Brown’s truly elite gear is measured very differently.
Joe’s talking about practice. Actually, it was Bucs QB coach Clyde Christensen talking about Brown practicing. He explained to CBS Sports Radio that Brown is so impactful and revved up at practice that he impacts the entire roster.
“He gave us a jolt last year. He gave us a little energy surge, if you will” Christensen said of Brown. “He provides it seven days a week, too,
“When he hits the football field, he’s unique. …The way this guy practices, once he hits those stripes, it’s on. You know, he is 100 miles an hour. So I think he helped us in every way, practice-wise as well as production-wise come Sunday … He raises the tempo of practice. He raises the tempo of how we do things.”
Brown’s reputation as a high-energy practice freak preceded his arrival in Tampa. That’s why Chucky signed him to play in Oakland.
Chucky had stated that watching Brown practice during his BSPN broadcast days was intoxicating and he had never seen a harder worker.
The Bucs’ “jolt” from Brown last year, the one Christensen referenced, was about arriving in midseason, Joe believes. He added a spark and Joe has heard stories of defensive players gravitating to Brown to study his pre-practice workouts and warmups.
Christensen placed Brown in the big bucket of Bucs that were not 100 percent healthy last year. \
He added that Brown is “humming” in practice already following offseason knee surgery and his looking “really, really good.”

(Borat) Very NICE!!

Borat jokes never get old.
I love Antonio’s intensity.
Ronde Barber and Steve Smith practiced the same way.
That’s what extended their careers so long.

Is Scotty Miller faster than Jalen Darden though????
July 31st, 2021 at 7:09 am
Scotty is faster, Jalen is quicker.

AB has that X factor, as do our main core of elite receivers
We have the top receivers in the NFL
And TB throwing the ball
Who could ask for more

I’ll say it once more…..MAGA “Make Antonio Great Again”……
I just can’t believe it…..Antonio Brown is our #3 WR…..There isn’t a better #3 in the NFL.

Straight line speed like Scotty is nice, but good speed and dynamic moves and cuts are mo better. 🙂

I was not in favor of bringing AB in last year. However, considering that he burnt all his bridges n was in desperation mode to redeem himself with the Bucs via consultation, mentoring, advice, guidance, counseling, all under the tutelage of the one n only, “Am I my brother’s keeper” GM/Coach/QB,Tom Brady. Only then is when I had a change of heart. AB is an example of true redemption. If Randy Moss n Brandon Marshall can do it, so can AB.

Comparing Scooter and AB’s speed is like comparing a Dodge Demon and a C7 Corvette. The Dodge is gonna be a bit faster straight line but get them on a track and the C7 will out perform the Dodge Demon.

Tbbf, maybe the best 3 receiver of all time…..
July 31st, 2021 at 10:22 am
Last time I saw Steelers at Tampa on T.V., 4th Quarter AB broke both a safety and corner’s ankles for a TD. If my memory is correct.

I’m not sure Scotty is the fastest on the team anymore. I think it’s Darden
July 31st, 2021 at 12:51 pm
I can easily see Brown leading our receivers in every category this year. I can also see him being off the roster by week three. It’s going to be a fun season.
July 31st, 2021 at 1:34 pm
I still say he has not proven himself. He sucked throughout last year, and because we had injuries he produced a LITTLE in the post season.
Good enough for depth in a pinch, but not nearly as good as some people here have convinced themselves.

“I’m not sure Scotty is the fastest on the team anymore. I think it’s Darden”
Based on what?

Jamel Dean might have something to say about who is the fastest Buccaneer

Yall love AB …. Hated on him till he on your team lol
July 31st, 2021 at 3:31 pm
Evans, Godwin, AB are not the best trio all-time. 2021 yes but all-time, no.
Moss-Carter-Reed
That was ridiculous.
Gary Anderson missed 38 yarder. Still hurts.
July 31st, 2021 at 4:55 pm
Yeah those 3 recievers made Dante Culpepper look like a great QB

“Yall love AB …. Hated on him till he on your team lol”
The Brady effect bro lol. So much hatred you have for him because he’s not your QB. It’s hard to determine who will be the top dog of the three starting WR, but AB will be nasty year two.

For years, AB was the best WR in the NFL.
If he keeps his head on Straight- this guy will be the best WR in Football again.
He has skills for miles. At his best- he couldnt be covered.
I wanna see that again
