Antonio Brown signing with Buccaneers

[Sassy Squatch]

Brown is a two-month rental and the belief is it’s a 1-year deal with significant upside for Brown. He comes off his suspension following Week 8. https://t.co/1V0WvNpynE

They looked good the first week without him, but I don’t think the run d will be as good as it was with him long term.

That's why they traded for McClendon, in the hope that it will lessen the loss.

We've been through that 100 times. It's not 1950s anymore.
There's more financial and ritualistic variables.
When the Giants/Jets new stadium was being built. They went to 2 super bowls and 4 conference championships combined ,between 2007-11. They go when it's necasary.

McClendon is nowhere near the player that Vea is.

What could possibly go wrong? Only one football to go around and I think it’s pretty safe to assume AB still believes he is a top tier WR. I look forward to the first sideline meltdown.

No, but he fills the positional need, and was still starting at his age (albeit for a bad team). He's not there to replace Vea's overall ability, but to mitigate the loss.

Better them than us.

I'd be surprised if he ****ed this up. He's been Tom Brady's puppet ever since going to New England. I don't know what it is but Brady seems to know how to control him. Killer blow jobs perhaps?

3 years ago I’d suggest teams first priority was slowing Bell as opposed to Brown. We got the better ex Steeler. Still be more concerned playing Wilson than the Bucs.

I knew this shit would happen. Ever since Brady started forcing balls to Scotty ****ing Miller.

Brady isn't quite as bad as Alex Smith, but he's VEEEERY particular about how you play the WR position, and if it's not just right the way he likes it, he'll. never throw you the ball.

He's a ****ing putz.

Some of the Baltimore radio hosts were discussing this earlier this week wondering if Baltimore should go after him.

One was adamantly against it - "Nothing against his skills, but honestly, do you TRUST AB to follow COVID-protocols? He'd probably infect half the team in the first month he was here."

Gotta say, he has a point. With AB's "peculiarties", would you really trust him off the field?

Somebody needs to see if Burfict has one more in him

Those states have no contenders, and the Bills are small market

Lol that remark didn't have anything to do with AB or football. It was propaganda the host was told to say for more fear of this crap.

The Bills are as much new york as jets or Giants. Buffalo, New Jersey, doesn't matter. I mean they represent that area.
SF, LA, Buff, are very much still contenders for playoffs.
Granted, the Rams crap uniforms might indicate a bad season lol.
