    Ben loves him some BA.
    BA loves him some Ben.
    BA’s starting QB is (likely) retiring.
    Could Ben be enticed to come to TB and “retire” with his former OC? :hmm:
    Stranger things have happened. :shrug:

    If Leftwich was there yeah. Maybe. I think
    Arians will be golfing with Ben more likely.

    Ben has retired and I very much doubt the Buccaneers (or any team) would even want him at this stage.

    The Bucs list of free agents is huge, they will try their best to work some cap magic but they are still going to lose some really key guys. 2021 was an all-in year but it looks like their Super Bowl window is closed now. Wouldn’t be surprised if this factored in to Bradys decision.

    No. Ben retired, officially. I fully believed that if he got a good offer he would take it, but either I was wrong or his agent kicked some tires and realized there's not much of a market for Ben anymore.

    On top of that, BA likes to go deep. Ben can't throw deep anymore.

    Never say never but they drafted Trask so they will probably roll with him and see what he can do.

    A big fat no. Then again I said the same thing about Mario Lemieux.

    It all depends if BA can convince Antonio Brown to return to the Bucs. I mean if we are speculating on a fantasy might as well include the whole family, no?

    Let's see how great of a HC Arians is without Brady, he couldn't make the playoffs with Winston.

    I don't believe he will be on a roster come the opening of the 2022 season, but, if a contender loses their QB mid season or beyond he might take the call.

    Why would Ben want to be directly compared to Brady. No veteran QB would be willing to go there.

    I think it's special that Ben was on one team. Brady, Brees and Manning don't have that. Wilson and Rodgers won't either I don't think. Ben is the only elite QB from his generation we know will be with one team.

    I`ll say it`s possible. I like contrarian thinking.

    However, more like 10% possible.

    It's not a likely scenario, Ben going to Tampa.
    It was a little painful to watch Ben this past year - something like Peyton Mannings last.
    Tampa most likely will watch the Rogers situation, if nothing there I'm not really sure what plan B would be.
    I hope Gabbert isn't the plan, that's worse than Winston.

    I read your other posts and agree it would be fun to speculate. But now that you posted it ESPN is going to pick it up and run with it.

    Watching Ben play this last year I would say absolutely not happening.

    What did you see in Ben that suggests he has a year left in that body?
