    I would say you must be confusing the roll of a HC for GM or owner?? But if a player has enough star power they can play the role of GM indirectly so I'm not tripping about your statement. Either way it's more of a business move than a personal one and I'm sure even Ben would understand/acknowledge it as such.

    Brady, Gronk, and AB. I remember the Washington R. tried signing great players past their prime and it was a failure. I think it may work out well for the Tampa Bay Bucs.

    What is in that water in TB?? They won the Stanley Cup. They are in the World Series. (should lose) Now they want the Super Bowl.

    Tampa Bay is all in this season, the NFC is weak this year no dominant teams, this move makes Tampa the favorite to make the Super Bowl.

    I guess they figure it does not hurt to give him a try. The AB who was considered possibly the best WR in the NFL no longer exists.

    I was just thinking if Tampa Bay did make some noise the talking heads would pretty much gush over them. It would make me sick for sure.

    Shortened seasons? It's a retirement community after all.

    A) There is still an ongoing investigation, I don’t think it’s written in stone that he is eligible to play after his 8 game suspension

    B) He hasn’t played football in about 2 years and is 32 years old. I think there is little chance he comes in and sets the world on fire with whats left of this season. He could very well struggle like AG Green has, although Green is coming off an injury.

    If anybody else made this thread the person who created this one would run in and say "Who?" "Not Steelers related" So I ask why hasn't this been moved? Where's the consistency?


    This is exactly why everybody wants to vote @SDOT for MOD in 2021. Bringing consistency back!

    He did but he looks so fragile to me now. I will be very surprised if he makes it through the year healthy.

    Grasping for straws all trying to prove Belicheat wrong. Brady, Gronk and AB will never win the big game without him.

    I also got a kick out of who started the thread. I remember when AB was mentioned in threads a few years back that same person would say "who".

    I guess that depends on what shape AB has kept himself in over the last year+. His physical conditioning was always a huge part of his success. 32 doesn't seem that old when the quarterback is 43. Either way, he probably doesn't 'set the world on fire', but I can see him contributing (barring a mental issue).

    He ain't ironed out his legal issues either. They could get in his way.

    Lev and AJ Green, both show that it’s not so easy to just waltz back on the field and start lighting it up after missing considerable time.

    Maybe he can get it turned around ..Brady likes weapons and Bill probably limited the targets AB could get a game we will probably see a different approach with Air Arians .. I hope his DK price is low I going to have a stack or 2 ..

    If AB hasn't lost his speed, they can always convert him to DB...:sneak:;+);+)

    I’m sure he is in great shape but as we all know, there is being in shape and football shape.

    I also think there is a big difference from playing QB and WR. If he’s even lost a little bit, getting open may not be as easy as it used to for him.

    I put him around 60-70 yards a game and 3 TDs on whats left of the year when he suits up.

    That's probably about what I was thinking. Contributing, opening up opportunities for others, maybe a clutch catch here and there too.
