WEBVTT - Which Defensive Player Could Take A Leap in 2021? | Bucs Insider

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Um, good morning, Bucks fans. It's time for Buccaneers Insider Live,

0:00:08.000 --> 0:00:10.360
<v Speaker 1>presented by Miller. Like Casey Phillips, here was senior writer

0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 1>and editor Scott Smith and as always, this is where

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>we take your questions, So any of those that you

<v Speaker 1>have head on over to Facebook and underneath our live

<v Speaker 1>video you can leave your questions and comments there as

0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:23.840
<v Speaker 1>we get people a chance to start submitting some of those.

0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:26.080
<v Speaker 1>We've had a lot happen over the last week. We've

0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:30.600
<v Speaker 1>got minicamp happening here. Finally, the whole team, veterans, rookies,

0:00:30.720 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 1>everyone out on the field together. So yesterday was the

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:37.080
<v Speaker 1>first day of that. Got to hear from Bruce, Chris Godwin,

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.479
<v Speaker 1>Alex Cappa, a few different people. Afterward, I wanted to

0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>hear just some of your initial takeaways from either watching

0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 1>practice or listening to everybody talk afterward. Well, the first

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:47.959
<v Speaker 1>good thing was that all eighty nine players were here

0:00:48.320 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 1>and most of them were in action. We have eighty

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.199
<v Speaker 1>nine right now because of the Cameron Kenley situation, we

0:00:53.200 --> 0:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>were at ninety UM, so all of them were here,

0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:57.600
<v Speaker 1>all of them were out on the field. There were

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>six guys that didn't practice. UM. John Franklin O, j Howard,

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Antonio Brown, Demican, Sue, Jordan Whitehead, and uh the rookie

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Darden, which was the one kind of surprise. He

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>must had a very slight hamstring tweak from last week

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:15.319
<v Speaker 1>according to Bruce Arians, and it's so minor that Aaron

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 1>said he might actually practice on Thursday. And in fact,

0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:20.399
<v Speaker 1>all of these guys seemed to be some variation of

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.360
<v Speaker 1>he's very close from Bruce arians estimation, and he said

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>at the end of kind of running down all those

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 1>different injury situations that all of them should be fine

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:30.959
<v Speaker 1>from the beginning of training camp. So I don't know,

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember a season where we've been kind of

0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.040
<v Speaker 1>this assuming all those goal as well as we hope

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 1>we've been this healthy heading into a camp. And speaking

0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:40.639
<v Speaker 1>of that guy who was out there who hadn't been recently,

0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:44.759
<v Speaker 1>Joe try On, he had missed all of his rookie

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.959
<v Speaker 1>minicamp in times like that, a little bit of an injury,

0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 1>and Daniel had asked what you thought of him? I

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:51.960
<v Speaker 1>know that yesterday was a very small little glimpse into it,

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:54.960
<v Speaker 1>but either from coach talking about him or what you saw,

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 1>what were the initial thoughts on Joe try On, Yeah,

0:01:57.160 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>well he looked like he was running around very well.

0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Uh coach at all, We said that he thought he'd

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>be back by the mini camps. He basically hit the

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 1>target that was expected. Um, they took it carefully with

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>him over the last few weeks. And uh, you know,

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>at this point, in these type of practices without pads,

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 1>without anybody wanting to get really close to a quarterback,

0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:20.160
<v Speaker 1>especially Tom Brady, Um, you know, it's a little hard

0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.400
<v Speaker 1>to tell how good a pass rusher is. But coach

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Arian said afterwards that he looks slippery in shorts, and

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:27.839
<v Speaker 1>not every guy does. So I guess if you look

0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 1>good rushing the past her right now in shorts, that's

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:32.880
<v Speaker 1>a good sign, you know, for what he'll looked like

0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 1>when the pad's going. Yeah, that's a great And something

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>else that has happened since our last show was Julio

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Jones getting traded. And so anytime a big name either

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 1>comes to or leaves the division, we always want to

0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about how that might affect the Buccaneers. So what

0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>were your initial thoughts on that? And and hey, I

0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.440
<v Speaker 1>guess the Buck still will get to see him technically

0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:56.160
<v Speaker 1>this year just only in the preseason. Yeah, um, well,

0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 1>my thoughts are that went pretty well. You know, he

0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:01.959
<v Speaker 1>got traded out of our division. This is a guy

0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>that was averaging fifty yards in one touchdown per game

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 1>against the Buccaneers in his career. And uh, he not

0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.959
<v Speaker 1>only got traded out of the division, but out of

0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:13.679
<v Speaker 1>the conference entirely, and to a team we wouldn't play

0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:16.920
<v Speaker 1>in the regular season. Um. I don't think necessarily that

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>our defensive backs would have the same feeling about it.

0:03:19.560 --> 0:03:22.079
<v Speaker 1>I think they liked the challenge. You know, he was

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 1>hurt for a number of games last year during the

0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>second half, and I'm pretty sure he didn't play in

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>either of the two games against the Buccaneers. So that

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>was the last chance for a while that some of

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 1>our guys like Carlton Davis are going to get to

0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 1>see him. And I'm willing to bet they would appreciate

0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.920
<v Speaker 1>the challenge. But you know, as a fan who doesn't

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>have to play out there and just wants to see

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.000
<v Speaker 1>the best possible situation from the Bucks, I like seeing

0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Julio Jones out of the coup. Yes, I would agree

0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:46.960
<v Speaker 1>with that. Um yeah, I'm sure. By the way, and

0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:50.480
<v Speaker 1>who guess who does play the Titans this fall? Who

0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 1>the New Orleans Saints. Well, there you go. I love it.

0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>They just can't get away from him exactly, and they

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 1>could be a prime competitor for the Buccaneers and for

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the division tie also that worked out. Well, yeah, that's

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>a good point. And we also had Kyle Trask officially

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:08.200
<v Speaker 1>signed yesterday. Um, I wanted to hear where where do

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we stand on you know, rookies being signed, And I

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>know people tend to always ask about sort of the

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 1>salary cap situation and how we determine that at this

0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>time of year compared to once you get down to

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>the final roster and all of that. Yeah, the two

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.680
<v Speaker 1>guys left to be signed our third round offensive Lemon

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Robert Hainzi, and the first round that we were talking about,

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Joe trying And it's a pretty common UM pattern to

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:35.280
<v Speaker 1>get your lower drafted guys signed first. So now we're

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 1>down to the last couple and Joe Tryan will probably

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 1>be last. You know, I think most fans understand now

0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.240
<v Speaker 1>that these contracts are pretty much slotted in under the

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 1>current CB A depending important where you picked a guy,

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 1>there's a certain amount that they're going to get there's

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 1>a little leeway here and there, but it's got to

0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:53.799
<v Speaker 1>be a four year deal. There's not a lot of gifts,

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.679
<v Speaker 1>so a lot of it is just paperwork. I think

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>now there's a little more give with what happens with

0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:01.160
<v Speaker 1>a first rounder, but are talking about the last pick

0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:03.240
<v Speaker 1>in the first round, so I don't think it'd be

0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:05.920
<v Speaker 1>very hard to get it done. But it's not surprising

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 1>that he's one of the last few left. And have

0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:12.000
<v Speaker 1>we got any sense on what the team looks at

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback situation as of looking at who's getting reps

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 1>with who and now that Kyle Trask is signed, when

0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>this is our first chance to see all four quarterbacks

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.159
<v Speaker 1>out on the field together. One indication have we gotten

0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.360
<v Speaker 1>They did the two fields thing that Bruce arians really

0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:27.360
<v Speaker 1>likes to do to get more reps for more players

0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>with so many guys in the field. Um so in

0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>the first mini camp practice yesterday. There's another one going

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 1>on right now and I'm sure they'll do the same thing,

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 1>but yesterday they split it up with basically the starters

0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 1>and the primary reserves on one field and the younger

0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>players and the guys a little farther down the deep

0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:44.760
<v Speaker 1>chart on the other field, which allowed all those young

0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>players to get a lot more snaps and they would

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 1>normally get. And you had Tom Brady and Blaine Gabbett

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 1>working with the starters and Kyle Trask and Ryan Griffin

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 1>working with the with the younger guys, and I think

0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:59.760
<v Speaker 1>that's what you would have expected. Ryan Griffin signed with

0:05:59.800 --> 0:06:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the Bucaneers, resigned with the Buccaneers knowing they had told

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 1>him they intended to resign Blaine Gabbert as well, and

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:07.400
<v Speaker 1>that they might look for a quarterback in the draft,

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>So he knew the situation coming into it. And Bruce

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.599
<v Speaker 1>Arians wanted to make it clear the other day that

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't see Ryan Griffin as the odd man out. Um,

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 1>it's a competition, you know. You can easily look at

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 1>it and say Lane Gabbert is probably the leader to

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 1>be the primary backup to Tom Brady, and you certainly

0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't expect the Buccaneers to cut second Rod Picktile Trash,

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>so he probably end up being your third quarterback. And

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Griffin was asked if what if the situation was

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:35.200
<v Speaker 1>that they kept those three but with expanded practice squad,

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 1>you could get spot on the practice squad and he's

0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 1>He basically said he was up for whatever would work. Okay,

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Mike asked, with it being a seventeen game schedule, do

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you see any players ever being a healthy scratch as

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:48.600
<v Speaker 1>a way to keep them fresh? You know, I hear

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that idea a lot, and I don't think so. I

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:54.760
<v Speaker 1>don't think so. Um. You know, you look at player

0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you look at coaches when they're down towards the end

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:58.479
<v Speaker 1>of the season and they got a nice lead in

0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:00.800
<v Speaker 1>their division, and you know, with some exceptions, they tend

0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.719
<v Speaker 1>to keep wanting to play those guys. You know, I

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 1>think they I think you'd be more likely to see

0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>more substitutions on a game by game basis. So maybe you,

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.640
<v Speaker 1>instead of mitigating the snaps by thinking you're not playing

0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:16.200
<v Speaker 1>this game and there's eight snaps that we don't worry about,

0:07:16.760 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, figured out those eight snaps by taking them

0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 1>out of games along the way, Because do you want

0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 1>to be sitting in a game that ends up being

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 1>because every game is important, we know that, right. It's

0:07:25.680 --> 0:07:27.960
<v Speaker 1>week thirteen and you decide to help the scratch Chris

0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Godwin and then Mike Evans gets hurt and knock on

0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 1>wood and you need a receiver there and it's a

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.960
<v Speaker 1>close game, and you're like, well, Chris Godwin standing right there,

0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 1>but we made him actively. We can't use them. I

0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>don't think any coach wants to put himself in that position. Yeah.

0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a great point. Jermaine asked, will you

0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 1>guys be attending the ring ceremony and have you gotten

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>a glimpse of the rings yet? Yes? And no, but

0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I think the second one will be too. Yeah. Yes,

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 1>at some point we're gonna have to write about it

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:58.720
<v Speaker 1>and so on. So right, Yeah, I I know a

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>way that I could see them cock up, I've heard,

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:02.840
<v Speaker 1>but I've chosen not to because I want to wait

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>and actually see the real things. I won't have to

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 1>write about it ahead of time, and so I am

0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>choosing to wait until I actually get to see my

0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:13.120
<v Speaker 1>ring sitting there before I look at it. It It was

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:14.880
<v Speaker 1>very tempting. I felt like a kid at Christmas again.

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:16.880
<v Speaker 1>It's like you know where your Christmas presents are hidden,

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and you're deciding if you're gonna look or not. Um,

0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>did you? I never? I never looked for the presence.

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 1>I didn't either. I didn't one. Yeah, I didn't either,

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:27.320
<v Speaker 1>because I'm like then it's no fun. Then you then

0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:29.080
<v Speaker 1>you already you already know and you take all that

0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 1>you want to open one or two on Christmas. Heave yes,

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that. Um. Sean Asia asked what are

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 1>your expectations from Sean Murphy Bunting and Carlton Davis this year? Well,

0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think we keep talking about guys making

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a leap, are improving from one year to the next.

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if we have to keep talking about

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Carlton Davis that way. I think he's already there. I

0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>think he's already one of the best cornerbacks in the league,

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>one of the one of the few guys, one of

0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:57.880
<v Speaker 1>the handful of guys that a team can take and

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 1>put on a guy like Jolio, Joe Are, Michael Thomas

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.000
<v Speaker 1>and have a good feeling that they can shut them down.

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 1>And there's not like guys that you can count on

0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 1>doing that. And the fact that the Buccaneers have that

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:10.880
<v Speaker 1>confidence in him makes me think they think he's one

0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>of the best cornerbacks in the leg and I do too.

0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Sean Murphy Bunting, in both of his first two years,

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:18.240
<v Speaker 1>has really finished strong. You know, there were some struggles

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>that he acknowledged along the way last year, but coming

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>down the stretch and then especially in the playoffs, Um,

0:09:24.040 --> 0:09:26.680
<v Speaker 1>he was a big time playmaker. And he is a

0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.880
<v Speaker 1>guy that could take a step forward in terms of

0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.080
<v Speaker 1>just being more consistent from a week to week basis.

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 1>And he knows that the coaches know that, and and

0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 1>that's something we might see from him that could make

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:38.440
<v Speaker 1>this defensive better next year. This year, Yeah, you know,

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:42.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying people asking about the idea of complacency. Do

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 1>you think the team is going to be as fiery

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.880
<v Speaker 1>this year after already winning one? And you know, are

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:49.680
<v Speaker 1>do they seem as hungry as they were last year?

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:52.200
<v Speaker 1>And I know that was something that Bruce arians was

0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.959
<v Speaker 1>asked about yesterday. So what was the indication that you

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.959
<v Speaker 1>got about where the team stands in terms of the

0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 1>fire to to go for two? Yeah, that doesn't seem

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>to be a problem with these guys. Um, they seem

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:05.319
<v Speaker 1>very much out in I think part of that has

0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:07.520
<v Speaker 1>to do with the commitment that the Buccaneers made to

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.640
<v Speaker 1>keep that entire roster intact. I mean, if you're Lavonte

0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 1>David and Devin White and Rob Gronkowski and all those

0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:18.000
<v Speaker 1>guys and you see the team really making an effort

0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 1>to make it as possible as possible for you to

0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>be in a good position two defend your title. UM.

0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that's a motivating factor. And also just the

0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 1>fact that nobody's done it since Tom Brady's Patriots since

0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:32.559
<v Speaker 1>two thousand three and o four. I mean, breaking through

0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.079
<v Speaker 1>and winning the Super Bowl was amazing last year and

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 1>can never be taken away from these guys. But imagine,

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, their legacy, especially in Buccaneers history, if they

0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:42.960
<v Speaker 1>can win two in a row, and you know, it

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't happen a lot, especially anymore in the NFL. So

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:47.679
<v Speaker 1>I think that carrot is just as strong as it

0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>was last year. UM. And on the practice field on Tuesday,

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>UH coach afterward, Coach Areans made a point of saying

0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:55.680
<v Speaker 1>there was no complacency at all, and he's not really

0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.360
<v Speaker 1>worried about that happening. He said, if he doesn't way

0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:00.440
<v Speaker 1>up to say anything, he said he had Nye out

0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>for it when practice started and he didn't see him.

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:04.080
<v Speaker 1>But but he said he doesn't have to say anything

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 1>because if if it's somebody on offense and they're not playing,

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 1>they're not their effort isn't up to par. They're gonna

0:11:09.920 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 1>hear from Tom Brady, and if it happens on defense,

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna hear from Levante David. So I think it's

0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:16.199
<v Speaker 1>very well self policed. That is true all And we'll

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>close with this. Rob asked, with all the returning starters,

0:11:18.800 --> 0:11:21.840
<v Speaker 1>are there any rookies that could slide into a starting spot.

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 1>It's not obvious, no, barring injury. We always have to

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 1>say barring injury, right, Um. I think the closest thing

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.000
<v Speaker 1>you could say to that is Joe try And wouldn'tsarily

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.400
<v Speaker 1>necessarily be starting a bunch of games, but he could

0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:34.680
<v Speaker 1>be playing a very large role as part as maybe

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:36.880
<v Speaker 1>the third guy if he is ahead of Anthony Nelson

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in the rotation with JPP and Shack Barrett, and maybe

0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the Buccaneers choose to give Shack and JPP you know,

0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:45.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe I know the guys who want to come off

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the field, but maybe just a little bit less per game,

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>going back to that seventeen game season question, just to

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>preserve them along the way. So he could end up

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 1>with a role that's pretty big. But I don't see

0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:57.680
<v Speaker 1>how he's a starter. And otherwise, Kyle Trask Robert Hainzi,

0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Darden, the two linebacker as Brittain Stewart and Chris Wilcox.

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Those are all positions that are very well established a starters.

0:12:04.800 --> 0:12:08.320
<v Speaker 1>So again, barring injury, UM I don't see it. Okay.

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:12.200
<v Speaker 1>All decision of Buccaneers and Sider Live presented by Miller Lte.

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for joining us, thanks for those great questions, and

0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 1>we'll see you next week
