Anyone else getting “Dream Team Eagles” vibes from the Bucs?

I can’t remember which year, 2012 maybe? But do you remember when the Eagles loaded up their roster with all of these “stars” which included Vick and Nmamdi Asmough (remember him?) with some ridiculously high contract among many other household name players? They even dubbed themselves “the dream team”  anyway, the Bucs this year are looking A LOT like that “dream team” eagles team then.

if Brady's arm allows him to throw downfield this season.  Bucs are gonna be nasty.  Not sure how certain that is though. 

I mean he would float one occasionally in NE but he has been playing old man small ball pretty consistent for years now.  Talent nor that offense is geared toward what Brady has grown accustomed to. 

I mean, Tom keeps playing and eventually he gonna have a Peyton season.

18-1 losing in the Super Bowl to the Cam Newton led Patriots.

I mean that would be awesome.

Accepting the fact the Panthers got no shot this year...that would be a fantastic storyline to watch play out.

That was an interesting team.  One thing to remember is that they spent all of that money on Nnamdi Asomugha who was one of the best man corners in the game, then used him in a bunch of zone concepts and even had him playing some safety.  It was weird, particularly since Nnamdi had poor instincts and reaction times in zone coverage.  Which also leads to reminding everyone that the offensive line coach for the Eagles was promoted to be the defensive coordinator around that time, and was the DC of that team.

I feel like this team has better leadership and direction.  Particularly since we are talking about Brady vs Vick.

      Might as well declare this front office regime dead if that's the case.  There is no reason that should happen.

      Well unfortunately nothing to us. But he has been giving to the rest of the league. He's been so bad he was getting opposing defenders all kinds of accolades and salary increases. Now though he's taking back. You can't lose to a Bryce Young led offense and not expect swift ramifications ya know?

      Updated 2025 draft order

      Full disclosure I responded to this before fully reading the whole post. As if I had, I’d have laughed at you saying you haven’t seen a full route tree from him, as that’s EXACTLY what he has in his bag.  That right there just shows you haven’t watched him at all outside of the downfield highlight reel plays.  He already runs a full NFL level route tree, at all 3 levels.  As I’ve said numerous times before, XL is the big bodied possession guy, while T-Mac would be the true outside #1 who can do it all and a perfect compliment to XL.   Want to draft someone else all you want, that’s totally fair.  But don’t try and say he’s just a big bodied WR who lacks quickness and can’t run a full route tree, as it’s just the furthest thing from the truth.     And it’s okay, after you watch some more clips, you can admit that you were wrong and I’m not showing my own bias towards him.  It’s not like I’m advocating for someone who should be a late 1st rounder or even a mid 1st round pick, this is someone who’s been mocked as high as #2 by a lot of experts lately. The kid is a stud and he has every tool in his bag that you’d want an outside #1 to have.
