Will The Band Get Back Together?
March 13th, 2022Well, the Bucs got the lead guitarist back. Can the rest of the band return?
Joe is confident the Bucs are going to lose free agents over the next few days. Legal tampering begins tomorrow and the free agency dinner bell rings on Wednesday.
The Bucs have a bunch of top-shelf free agents. First is tight end Rob Gronkowski. This evening reacting to the breaking news that Tom Brady will return to the Bucs, former Belicheats general manager Scott Pioli said on NFL Network it is a virtual certainty Gronk will return to the Bucs.
Then there is Ryan Jensen. The Pro Bowl center is expected to hit free agency. But earlier today, Joe read a note from Jeremy Fowler of BSPN typing that the Bucs were still negotiating with Jensen to return. Does Brady coming back lure Jensen back to the Bucs?
Scuttlebutt at the combine from what Joe heard was that the only way Ali Marpet was going to play in 2022 is if Brady returned. Maybe. Now that Brady is back, does Marpet change his mind about retirement?
Joe is very hungover typing this from his Aria Resort and Casino hotel room. But Joe’s mind is racing 100 mph now.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:45 pm
He needs to call Ali Marpet ASAP!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:45 pm
Putting the band back together. We are the favorites. Everyone else is in third place
March 13th, 2022 at 7:46 pm
One more run!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:46 pm
Gronk will come back because Brady will be here!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:47 pm
Yes get the band back together and add Von Miller.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:48 pm
Just resign everyone but give them the bulk of their money during the next few years when the cap EXPLODES
March 13th, 2022 at 7:48 pm
Gronk Never Left
He has been in the building all off season
March 13th, 2022 at 7:48 pm
The band won’t due, we need a shot in the arm … Tre Burks #27 .. remember Godwin won’t be there at first Brady needs targets
GoBucs!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:48 pm
Add Vonn!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:49 pm
Bucs baby.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:50 pm
yes…
God is good !!!
and Tommy B is even better !!!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:50 pm
Fournette. Suh. JPP. Cappa. Gholston. Whitehead.
That is who they need. And if Marpet is inclined, and healthy, him.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:50 pm
Most of our free agents will be back and we’ll add more. Brady changes absolutely everything! Tears of joy tonight!!!!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:51 pm
So Tom wanted to make sure that some of the key free agents were coming back.
As soon as we resigned Aaron Stinnie, he knew.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:52 pm
Somewhere Jason Licht is sobbing with relief..
March 13th, 2022 at 7:53 pm
You poor b@$tards have me for another season. Where you at Ben Green and NE Pat’s Fan, we’re getting the band back together.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:55 pm
I’m pretty sure the timing i for a reason. Before Free Agency starts. LFG
March 13th, 2022 at 7:56 pm
We back!!!!!
March 13th, 2022 at 7:57 pm
Hopefully Marpet will unretire and we can get the offense line back.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:57 pm
To all the brady haters
Suck it
Orlbucfan crying herself to sleep tonight
Ndog just spit out some guys junk
March 13th, 2022 at 7:58 pm
Bring them all back.
And get Lenny back on board.
Please.
March 13th, 2022 at 7:58 pm
Who are some bigtime FA’s looking for a ring???
March 13th, 2022 at 7:59 pm
Unfortunately, this team is going nowhere without a better defense.
We’d have to find a way to upgrade TWO corners. Let Davis go sign with another team, he’s highly overrated. SMB and Dean just aren’t consistently good enough. If they start, we aren’t making a deep playoff run. It’s just that simple.
We also have to find a way to improve the Pass Rush. Any game where the pass rush is getting stuffed, our D gets CRUSHED. Our secondary isn’t good enough to create “coverage sacks.”
March 13th, 2022 at 7:59 pm
I’ll bet Godwin coming back sealed the deal.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:00 pm
Do you think AB and BA will kiss and make up?
March 13th, 2022 at 8:01 pm
wow how do all you back stabbing fair weather fans shatting all over him the last few months. Shame on you. DumbBelle, Oneilbucyall and the rest of you TB12 haters, SUCK on THAT!!! Now if Gronk and AB come back another SB run. Karen Roger’s just shat himself.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:01 pm
We got 13,14,87 need no else.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:02 pm
The Trask era can wait another year. Happy times!
March 13th, 2022 at 8:03 pm
Wow. Brady probably got buthurt bucs were going in on d. Watson.
Im glad hes back but theres alot of work ahead to shape the roster.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:04 pm
You missed if a. Brown be back ? Lol
March 13th, 2022 at 8:04 pm
Marpet needs to.come back
March 13th, 2022 at 8:04 pm
List,
AB??? Hahahah. That pirate ship has sailed.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:05 pm
Yes!
This changes everything…
Kick the salary cap can down the road for another year.
Add them void years like they are going out of style.
Mike Evans, Shaq, D. Smith, C. Godwin, C. Brate – will be restructured.
Succop and Pinion may be cut or restructured.
That should clear enough space to bring the band back together.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:05 pm
Holy crap. I didn’t believe it. I thought it was too good to be true. It was either that or I died and found out, to my surprise, there is a heaven. Whatever the reason I am super grateful to have the GOAT back. IDK about AB. That’s a deep stretch but Jensen perhaps. Gronk perhaps. Marpet talked out of retirement? All unknowns right now but I’ll tell you what is known. That sound is known. The sound you just heard of shattered glass was empty Crown bottle number 1 from Mike Florio being slammed in disgust. He’s having trouble walking but bottle number 2 is being deployed. Suck it Florio.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:05 pm
Division is open to a win, need to redo a few deals and bring back weapons.
I’d like to see a surprise weapon like Larry on a cheap deal. Chris has to get a long term deal done. And it would be nice to keep Lenny he had a lot of chemistry with Tom he trusted him.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:07 pm
bring everyone back that you can…this year is gonna be wild…
all the guys who were expendable because tommy was gone – now all must come back…
gronk
big red
lenny
marpet***
cappa
etc…
***if tom has to go down by the river and rip that little banjo out of ali’s hand and smash it on a river rock, i’m sure he will***
March 13th, 2022 at 8:07 pm
Maybe Edelman on a 1m/y plus bonuses run. Is Amedolla still in game shape? I heard Malcolm Butler is coming from retirement. Haha.
Gronk will have to return.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:09 pm
Go get a. Humphries.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:10 pm
and…
we are gonna get first dibs on some good free agents, like the pats corner…
dudes are gonna wanna come play with tom…
it’s just how it is…
tommy b is a buccaneer !
March 13th, 2022 at 8:10 pm
***if tom has to go down by the river and rip that little banjo out of ali’s hand and smash it on a river rock, i’m sure he will***

March 13th, 2022 at 8:10 pm
Yay no criminals now get the others signed 😊
March 13th, 2022 at 8:10 pm
Lead guitar, heck we got the composer back. We got ‘buddy Holley’, back.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:10 pm
and a quick little shout out to gisele for secretly making tom just “slightly miserable” during his extended fam time 🙂
March 13th, 2022 at 8:11 pm
Thank you Giselle!
March 13th, 2022 at 8:12 pm
Again….Pay Brady…55 million. Pay Gronk….= Win Super Bowl.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:12 pm
Don’t be calling anyone names, Listnfrmafar. You talked way more than your fair share of sh*t about Brady hating BA, tired of the culture, wanting to play in SF, ad nauseum. Now that you’ve confirmed that you’re a troll, we can ignore you completely.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:12 pm
Adam, it’s not a banjo, it’s a ukulele!
March 13th, 2022 at 8:12 pm
Clearly there was Glazer Brady meeting. Especially with the Man U Renaldo meet and greet in London today. I wonder what the Glazers offered outside of his contract as retaining Tom is a huge financial gain for their franchise.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:13 pm
ukelele
March 13th, 2022 at 8:13 pm
ok i will stop posting but have one last thing to say:
“IT’S A GOOD TIME TO BE A BUCCANEERS FAN…………AGAIN”
🙂
Tommy B x The Glazers = #TheNewAmericasTeam
March 13th, 2022 at 8:14 pm
Man, can you believe we missed out on Wentz?
March 13th, 2022 at 8:16 pm
Thank you Tom Brady !
March 13th, 2022 at 8:17 pm
I heard AB just jumping jacked his way back on to the field at the Meadowlands!!
March 13th, 2022 at 8:17 pm
Can’t wait to see Tom in person at a game again. Maybe homeopener.
Season Ticket sales back up again, advertisers happy, NFL making more money, and Skip, Colin and Shannon get to talk Tom every day.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:17 pm
Pretty epic timing by Brady, the day before legal tampering.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:18 pm
Cmurda, spot on. Florio is a fool. He knows nothing. He’s still clinging to some SF angle. He’s a click bait fraud and anyone who buys his book is a bigger fool.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:18 pm
I guess San Fran said no. Where you at Oneilbucyall & DumbBelle the Brady haters.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:19 pm
L.F.G!!!!
March 13th, 2022 at 8:19 pm
Where is that Saintsfan troll now?
March 13th, 2022 at 8:21 pm
No.. last year proved it doesn’t work to bring everyone back. And not really possible anyway. We got some guys that are legit overrated. Let them go and let someone else overpay. We need to get younger and faster at some key areas. And the draft picks this year will be very critical.
Also, elevate Trask to backup. He’s likely the QB in 2023. He needs to use this year to get ready.

Somewhere other NFC South teams just threw up a little bit.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:24 pm
Will someone can Arians… Please
March 13th, 2022 at 8:29 pm
Wait, did he agree to come back so Bucs could trade him?
March 13th, 2022 at 8:29 pm
You darn right Marine Buc. You darn right.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:30 pm
@List. No way. No way at all. Read his post.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:32 pm
I have no idea what Marpet is thinking, but I’d have playoff Lenny and Gronk on speed dial. Very tough schedule this year and we need them both.
No way we field the same team again. TB helps us upgrade on FA’s.
I’d hate to pick up JL’s bar tab tonite.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:32 pm
Cmurda, if you’re right, the guy has balls or he hasn’t seen the schedule yet.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:33 pm
Listnfrmafar, if you read his twitter, it’s clear he’s coming back to Tampa. There will be no trade. However, I’m sure he has some tentative agreements with lots of free agents coming back and new ones to come here.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:34 pm
@ alvinscissorsharper:
tom said it’s a banjo…so it’s a banjo…whatever tom says is law lol
March 13th, 2022 at 8:35 pm
seems pretty obvious the tom has great relationship with ownership…
and that goes a hella long way
March 13th, 2022 at 8:42 pm
List, guess he really hates his head coach huh?
March 13th, 2022 at 8:43 pm
Good news is no need to waste the 2nd rounder this year
March 13th, 2022 at 8:49 pm
Cue: “My boyfriend’s back and you’re gonna be in trouble…”
March 13th, 2022 at 8:54 pm
Check out part of Florio’s story about Brady coming back. Seriously. Tell me you can’t picture him slamming down the bottle of Crown that I spoke of earlier. It just pains him so much. Florio has made him self an Enemy of the State. Good luck to you sir.
Florio says-
It seemed that perhaps he wanted to leave the Buccaneers and play for a different team. In the end, he decided to remain with the Bucs.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:55 pm
@List. I’m going to go with—– he’s got massive balls.
March 13th, 2022 at 8:57 pm
Go get Gilmore to replace davis. I hope they go defense again with the first pick in the first round.
March 13th, 2022 at 9:01 pm
Betcha…Bucs sekk out season this week. Hottest ticket in NFL. Monday Nights…Octoberfest Game in Munich….AWESOME! This will be the best season ever, LFG
March 13th, 2022 at 9:02 pm
Now Carolina or the Saints need to make a splash. No risk to them now. They’re playing for the season after next now.
Glad I don’t work tomorrow. Where did I put that Avocado Vodka?
March 13th, 2022 at 9:05 pm
Bray is ‘Back in the Saddle Again’. Yippie Kay Aye Yay! Where I get my LFG Buc Hat? This is so exciting now. Me so Happy about it!
March 13th, 2022 at 9:10 pm
Thank G-d TB12 is coming back. All of you that said ‘he absolutely isn’t,
let’s move on ” are eating crow right now.
Let’s Go ! Go BUC’s !
March 13th, 2022 at 9:11 pm
Hopefully Marpet will pull a Gronk and unretire too !
March 13th, 2022 at 9:17 pm
Maybe they are bringing him back to trade for Rodgers, then GB will trade TB fir Garoppolo. Lol
March 13th, 2022 at 9:20 pm
Return the front line and beef up that secondary. Get Von Miller and Gilmore then it on to the SB.
March 13th, 2022 at 9:28 pm
Let’s Go!!!!
To @Sh!tlist.
I’ve been a fan of the Bucs since I was a kid, wearing my Wilder and Giles jersey back in the day to the Ole Sombrero, with it’s awesome metal bleacher benches.
I belong on Joe Bucs Fan.
You, @Sh!tlist, do not. You’re a bandwagoner @Sh!tlist. You’re not a true fan. I loved John Lynch, I still have his jersey, when he played for us, but I could NEVER root for or follow the Denver Broncos when he played for them.
My loyalty and heart are only with one team, the Bucs.
By following and bandwagoning like you do @Sh!tlist, you show everyone how you aren’t a true fan of the Bucs of the Patriots.
It’s your disloyalty that people find distasteful. You’re Two Faced Fan @Sh!tlist.
If you called on to the late and great Steve Deumig’s show, God rest your soul Big Dog we miss you, and told him that you’re a Pats fan who roots for the Bucs he would have gone off on you and made you one of his promos for stupid callers.

March 13th, 2022 at 10:09 pm
Hi I’ve been a bucs fan since 1979. We had many tough years. My message to Tom is I never liked him in New England but always respected his ultimate abilities. That can never be compromised. You went from a less favorite to my favorite. I give you all the credit for making this team the contender they have become. I know with out your all out leadership none of the things that have transpired would have been a reality. You are the best player I’ve seen in my fifty years of watching football. Thanks for giving us another year. Go Bucs!
