What the Buccaneers didnt do in the 2020

The are doing their best to put themselves in position for the era in Tampa Bay to get off to a roaring start. They are already one of the biggest winners of the offseason after succe sfully wooing the six-time champion to join the pirate ship in free agency and were even able to talk tight end out of retirement and execute a trade with the to bring him aboard. Those two moves alone should drastically improve the Bucs heading into Jason Vargas Jersey 2020, but they didn't stop there.Arguably the team's biggest need heading into the 2020 draft was along the offensive line. After all, Tom Brady -- while still able to lead a team to a Super Bowl -- is no spring chicken as he'll begin next season at age 43. One bad hit and things could light up in flames under center for Tampa in short order, so ensuring that TB12 is protected during his time in Florida was priority No. 1.The interior of offensive line is solid in Tampa with with center and left guard , but that unit did rank 23rd in pa s protection Ian Kennedy Jersey in 2019, according to Football Outsiders. With that in mind, tackle was an area they needed to attack. They did so by trading up one spot to No. 13 overall to secure Iowa offensive tackle , who was looked at as one of the top tackle prospects in this cla s. The 6-foot-5, 320 pounder has experience playing at both the left and right tackle spots, but will likely find a home at right tackle in Tampa Bay. He graded fourth among qualifying tackles in his cla s (per Pro Football Focus) and has unreal athleticism that should help the entire line improve in the seasons to come.This is especially important for the version of Tom Brady the Buccaneers are getting as the quarterback did complete just 32% of his pa ses when under pre sure last season, which ranked 30th in the . Overall, this acquisition of Wirfs is a slam dunk and much needed. While this was one area that was filled and the Buccaneers did a great job at this draft in general, there are still some questions that need answering on the roster that we'll highlight below.1. Clear up the situation at RBOutside of bringing in an offensive tackle, the running back position was one that many people pegged the Buccaneers to addre s rather early at the draft. They did select out of Vanderbilt in the third round, but that hardly clears up whatever they are trying to mold in the backfield. Vaughn has the ability to catch pa ses out of the backfield, which has proven to be a rather lucrative spot in a Tom Brady-led offense, but Willie Wilson Jersey he is a bit hit-or-mi s and may not be entirely sturdy in pa s protection. That lack of experience as a blocker may curb his ability to see the field early in the year.This was also a bit of a reach taking him where they did, but understandable after the club elected to trade both of its fourth-rounders (Wirfs trade up, Gronkowski deal). Utah's was also still on the board, which may have been a better selection. looks like he'll remain Tampa starter heading into 2020, which isn't exactly what many envisioned prior to the draft. As a team in 2019, the Buccaneers ranked in the bottom-10 in the league in total rushing yards (1,521).2. Draft a QB to develop behind BradyPrior to the draft, general manager Jason Licht noted his belief that Tampa could afford to draft a young quarterback to groom behind Tom Brady. Well, that was before they shipped away two fourth rounders to the Patriots and in deals that helped land them tight end Rob Gronkowski and offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs. That seemingly took them out of the quarterback market at the 2020 draft.They Brian Flynn Jersey could have brought in Georgia's in the fifth round, but elected to draft wide receiver out of Minnesota at No. 161, just a handful of picks before the quarterback went off the board to the at No. 167. Tampa does have its backup already in-house in , so this isn't a huge need for 2020, but it will be something for the club to think about soon. After all, Brady Salvador Perez Jersey is only signed through the 2021 season and will be 43-years old when Week 1 rolls around. 3. Spend a premium pick for the defensive lineTampa was able to retain some key figures along the defensive front in Shaq Barrett, and earlier this offseason, but they still did lose and . They added out of Nebraska in the sixth round, but they didn't use a premium pick to really inject some top-tier talent combined with that youth into the rotation. Given the reach for running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn in the third round, Tampa may have been better served going the defensive tackle route in that round with or and addre sed running back in the later rounds. Suh only signed a one-year deal with the club and will begin the 2020 season at age 33, so the club may want to look for a long-term answer in the interior sooner rather than later.

Brett Favre explains why NFL quarterback

NFL fans got an inside look into the mind of a J.D. Martinez Jersey quarterback on Monday when ESPN decided to mic up for the ' 33-0 blowout lo s to the , and it was quite the haunting look.Although players get mic'd up all the time, it's very rare that you actually get to hear anything notable. However, that changed on Monday.In a game where Darnold struggled from start to finish, the viewer got an inside look into his frustrations with New England's defense when he ," which has nothing to do with the fact that Halloween is le s than 10 days away. Sam Darnold is micd up and he came to the sidelines and said, Im seeing ghosts.(Via ) Dan Roche (@RochieWBZ) So what exactly does it mean when a quarterback is seeing ghosts?Brett Favre answered that exact question this week . The Hall of Famer pointed out that it's something that usually happens to young quarterbacks. "Seeing ghosts is, 'I thought the guy was blitzing, I saw the safety back up into deep coverage,' and then you watch Matt Barnes Jersey the film and that's not the case," Favre said. "It's really nothing other than being a young player, being exposed to a lot of stuff, and really not so much thrown to the wolves, I don't think Adam Gase did anything wrong."To put that in layman's terms: The Patriots defense hit Darnold so often in the game that he started throwing the ball earlier, even on plays when no one was close to him. As Favre mentioned, that can be the feeling where you think someone is blitzing, but there's not actually anyone there. Here's a look at one throw Darnold made before a rusher even got near him. Man Darnold is completely spooked. Out there shooting fadeaways in the red zone. Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) As Favre also mentioned, the ghosts can be in the secondary. If you think you see a safety in coverage, you might not throw the ball, when in fact, there's no safety there and your receiver is wide open. According to the Ol' Gunslinger, his old coach with the , Mike Holmgren, used to talk about "seeing ghosts" all the time."That's a term that Mike Holmgren would say to me quite often," Favre said David Price Jersey . "My first one, two, three years with the Packers. It's not a new term. Quite frankly, I'm not surprised. A young player -- a quarterback, especially -- will have a tendency to see ghosts. You hear the term a lot, 'It's slowing down for him,' and that is kind of the opposite of seeing ghosts."According to Favre, a quarterback is more likely to be seeing ghosts at the level because players are more athletic and defenses are more exotic. "You go from one level -- high school to college, college to pros -- and each time, there's sort of a maturation level," Favre said. "In high school, you may have one or two really good players, either on your side or the other side. College, then you got eight, maybe nine, maybe 11, which would be rare, but when Brandon Workman Jersey you get to the pros, that pool of really good players becomes bigger, and so you're facing more exotic defenses or better talent, and the speed of the game is fast. This is the learning curve for him."Despite Darnold's struggles against the Patriots -- he threw four interceptions and ended with just 86 pa sing yards -- Favre thinks the second-year quarterback still has the talent to be a good player in the NFL. "I don't know Sam Darnold, just my interpretation of what I see, I think he's going to be really good if he can survive the onslaught," Favre said. "You got to go in and play, you got to go with all your guns blazing, and if he makes mistakes, he makes mistakes. The key is that you learn from them, and you're going to make more. He's going to see more ghosts, and over time, the thought is that you see le s and le s, and you become very familiar with your offense, and I think that's something that's often overlooked. I mean, this is a new offense to him."It's a good explanation from Favre, who clearly understands what Darnold is going through. Now, the Jets quarterback just needs to put the entire "seeing ghosts" thing behind him and move forward, which actually might not be that easy. The fact that Darnold's "seeing ghosts" comments aired on Monday with Jets coach Adam Gase and both calling out ESPN. Of course, it wasn't ESPN Pedro Martinez Jersey 's fault, an NFL films representative had to approve the audio from the mic'd up segment before it was allowed to be used on-air, so if the Jets want to be mad at anyone, they should be directing their anger at NFL Films.

2019 NFL Draft Potential top-15 pick Jef

Mi si Carl Yastrzemski Jersey sippi State defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, considered a in April's , may not hear his name called on the first day of selections. According to a report from ESPN.com's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen, Simmons suffered a knee injury during training and it is believed to be a torn ACL. From and me: Mi si sippi St. DT Jeffery Simmons, projected to be a top Blake Swihart Jersey 15-pick in April, suffered a knee injury during training that is thought to be a torn ACL, per league sources. A statement to offer clarity on Simmons' injury is expected to be released today. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) If the diagnosis is confirmed as a torn ACL, Simmons will presumably sit out some or all of his rookie season in order to rehabilitate, and it will be difficult for teams to know what kind of player they are getting if and when he returns to the field.Simmons, who had 30 tackles for lo s and seven sacks Babe Ruth Jersey during the past two seasons as Mi si sippi State and is considered one of the top available defensive linemen in the draft, was already facing questions regarding off-the-field i sues. He had previously been informed that he would not receive an invitation to the Combine due to the league's rule regarding i sues of violence. Mi si sippi State DT Jeffery Simmons a potential top-10 pick and Colorado State WR Preston Williams have been informed they wont be invited to the Craig Kimbrel Jersey scouting combine because they don't meet the criteria under the NFL's policy about past i sues involving violence, sources say. Tom Peli sero (@TomPeli sero) As we wrote at the time, the lack of a combine invite for Simmons is since the NFL instituted a rule in Rusney Castillo Jersey 2016 that it would not invite prospects who had previously had i sues with violence to the combine. Simmons was seen on video in 2016 striking a woman. Mi si sippi State allowed him to enroll in the school anyway, ultimately suspending him for one game.

2021 Super Bowl Chiefs make major change

When the made it to LIV in Miami last season, they traveled down to South Florida a full week before the game. However, that won't be happening this year due to the pandemic.With the trying to keep the teams Yasiel Puig Jersey as safe as po sible between now and the kickoff of Super Bowl LV, the league is taking every precaution and that includes keeping the Chiefs in Kansas City for as long as po sible.According to ESPN.com, the Chiefs until the DAY BEFORE the game. That is not a typo. The Chiefs will Mike Moustakas Jersey be landing in Florida on Feb. 6, just one day before they play the in Super Bowl LV. The change in the schedule will allow the Chiefs to keep the testing routine they've been following all season to prevent the spread of COVID-19. If the Chiefs had flown down a week early for the game like they did last year, they would have been in a new city where they likely would have run into hundreds of strangers, which isn't something you want to deal with during a pandemic.For the Buccaneers, they won't really have to make any changes this week and that's because they're about to become the first to ever play a Super Bowl in their home stadium. Basically, this means that the Buccaneers can keep their regular season routine that they would normally have for a home game. With the Chiefs not heading to Tampa until Feb. 6, that means one of the NFL's key events will be undergoing a major change. Super Bowl Adam Duvall Jersey media night will still be held this year on Feb. 1, but the entire thing is going to be done virtually, which means no awkward interviews with costumed reporters or people dre sing up like a young Andy Reid. Best costume at Media Night so far? The guy in the full "punt, pa s and kick" Devin Mesoraco Jersey Andy Reid outfit. John Breech (@johnbreech) The Super Bowl itself is also going to look slightly different and that's because Raymond James Stadium is only going to be about one-third full.The NFL has announced that 22,000 fans will be attendance with 7,500 of those . Not only will each fan be required to wear a mask at the Super Bowl, but the NFL will be handing out a KN-95 mask . Although the lead up to the Super Bowl is going to have a different feel, it's still against , which means you're Brandon Finnegan Jersey definitely going to want to be watching when the game kicks off on Feb. 7 on CBS (6:30 p.m. ET).

Broncos Brandon McManus chasing NFLs lon

There's a sense of optimism surrounding Homer Bailey Jersey the entering the 2020 season. While they reside in arguably the toughest division in football, they appear to have their quarterback of the future and spent this past offseason beefing up their offense. Denver's defense has long been one of the best in the league, and their stars like are finally back healthy. One of the more underrated players on the Broncos is kicker , who is after an record this season.During a , McManus revealed that he is after the NFL's longest field goal record, which is currently held by . Back in 2013, Prater hit a 64-yarder while playing with the Broncos. With his big leg coupled with the thin air in Denver, McManus believes he has a shot to break this record in 2020, and says he will buy everyone in Denver a beer if he can pull it off."I have a big leg, and I've always Tony Perez Jersey wanted to have my name etched in history," McManus said. "I know I can make that, my teammates know I can make that. In training camp, with live rushes, I've made it from 73 yards."Claiming to make a 73- George Foster Jersey yard field goal sounds almost ludicrous, but there is video evidence that does appear to support this. Broncos K Brandon McManus nailed a 73 yard FG during practice today..... 73! (via ) NFL Update (@MySportsUpdate) The longest field goal McManus has made in a game was a 57-yarder he converted back in 2015. During a game with the last season, Broncos head coach Vic Fangio sent his kicker out to attempt a 65-yard field goal attempt, but then changed his mind and brought the special teams unit off of the field. Scooter Gennett Jersey "They alter the mechanics and it affects him the rest of the game," Fangio said after the Broncos beat the Chargers, 23-20, . "I'm going to say that that decision not to let him go out there for the 65-yarder led him to making the 52 and the 53-yarder." Ever since his opportunity to break the record was taken from him last year, McManus has been vocal that he Joey Votto Jersey would like a chance to at least attempt a record-breaking field goal. Fangio will be inclined to call his number should the Broncos find themselves in that kind of situation this season.

Cowboys training camp 2021 Five intrigui

When Mike McCarthy was named the new head coach of the , ending the decade-long era of disappointment tied to the Jason Garrett era, there was a lot of hope for a quick turnaround. One COVID-19 pandemic later, the entire was faced with lack of an offseason Sergio Romo Jersey and the subsequent attempts of managing an outbreak while attempting to keep the regular season on the tracks. Fast forward to 2021 and while the pandemic is still ongoing, vaccines being made available have allowed for a traditional offseason, and that means the end of any and all excuses in Dallas.It's truly time to put up or shut up, and everyone in the building -- from the mountaintop that is owner Jerry Jones down to the valley of the 90th man on the roster -- knows it, hence the firing of defensive coordinator Mike Nolan after only one (atrocious) year. In replacing him with former Legion of Boom maestro Dan Quinn, the Cowboys have infused new life into their defensive unit, and their offensive compatriots are high on the hog with the return of , , and starting tight end readying to join after the latter had a career-best year in his absence due to injury.Even special teams has an air about it, with major changes having been made there as well. This means that, going into training camp in Oxnard, California, the Cowboys have a slew of roster battles equivalent to pools of kerosene waiting for a hot match to be to sed their way. That'll happen/begin on July 20, and as the pads start slapping. Leading up to roster cuts at the end of August, these are five camp battles that will, in large part, dictate how the season unfolds in Dallas; and HBO's "Hard Knocks" will make sure all the world gets eyes on it.Ring the bell.LB Battle RoyaleI expect this clash to include everything short of tables, ladders and chairs. is entering a contract year after having seen the Cowboys opt to not exercise his fifth-year option, and he's used it as motivation heading into training camp. isn't technically entering a contract year, , because the Cowboys can save millions by moving on from him in 2022 and using a first- and fourth-round pick on and , respectively, sends the glaring me sage that they'll have no i sue doing just that if he doesn't blow the doors off of this coming season. But wait, there's more, because veteran safety is now mostly a linebacker for the Cowboys and there's also the matter of promising young talent like , (if he can remain healthy) and a potential sleeper in undrafted free agent . Hines is expected to force at least one uncomfortable roster decision in August Adeiny Hechavarria Jersey , and Parsons and Cox are set to push Vander Esch and Smith to either new heights or out the door in a few months. Mix in a lot of Neal and this is an absolute Royal Rumble.Insert "woo!" here. vs. Bet you didn't see this one coming on draft weekend. When the Cowboys gave Joseph the nod with their second-round pick (44th overall) in April, it was because he's quite the force on the field. So while there were pre-draft red flags waving about, his football ability leveraged the pick into a forgivable one with a boom-or-bust potential. Contrarily, the club was dragged over a Daniel Robertson Jersey bed of nails for using a third-round pick (99th) on Wright -- many believing there were much better defensive options available at the time as it instantly became clear that Quinn pounded the table for Wright. Weeks later, it's Wright who's hit the ground running in impre sive fashion and Joseph now finds himself needing to have a fantastic camp in order to keep Wright at bay.After mi sing much of minicamp and showing up out of shape, the rap artist known as "YKDV Bo sman Fat" is going to have to raise his bar because, so far, Wright can do no wrong. vs. To extend or to not extend, that is the question. When it comes to Williams, the Cowboys have a decision to make and they'll have to make it fairly soon -- sources telling CBS Sports there've been no groundbreaking contract talks as of yet between the two sides. The former second-round pick is entering the final year of his rookie deal in Dallas and is set to hit free agency in 2022, if allowed. This will not be a franchise tag situation, so scrap that thought, but instead one where Williams will have one more year to prove he's not only a starter in the NFL, but also an above average one. He's improved in his durability and his overall play, but the Cowboys adored what they saw in McGovern as a pre-draft prospect who can swing on the interior offensive line, and he flashed in a big way when given the chance due to a ravage of injuries acro s the O-line in 2020.It's po sible McGovern can, at minimum, make the Cowboys adjust their long- Oliver Drake Jersey term position on Williams with a stellar camp and beyond. and Williams better lace up his gloves going into a pivotal fourth year. vs. Ever heard of Wally Pipp? While you type that name into Google, allow me to point out there could be a similar situation brewing in Dallas at the defensive tackle position -- more specifically, the 3-tech. Hill made great strides to begin last season in his campaign to become the permanent starter in that role, but a torn ACL ended his season and forced the team to move Gallimore over from 1-tech (nose tackle) and hope the rookie could adapt quickly. Well, he did, at least mostly, and Gallimore became more and more polished and impactful as the season wore on. With his needle pointing due north and Hill looking to return from a devastating knee injury with the added handicap of trying to adjust to a third defensive coordinator in as many years, the third-year talent has a lot of pre sure on him to somehow beat back Gallimore this summer.There are battles aplenty acro s the defensive interior and behind the starting edge rushers C. J. Cron Jersey -- -- but you'd be wise to draw a red circle around the bout between a returning Hill and an aggre sive Gallimore. vs. Hey, punter battles need love, too. Sure, there are more glitzy battles that could be named here, but being shinier doesn't inherently mean they're more important. And when it comes to flipping field position, one of the most important tasks in the sport, you'd better have the right guy putting a boot to the ball. It's for this very reason the Cowboys decided to move on from longtime punter as they usher in a new-look special teams unit, but the initial belief was that they'd award Niswander the position after he joined the team in 2020 due to a sidelined Jones -- going on to impre s right out of the gate and for the remainder of the season. It was not to be, however, because special teams coordinator John "Bones" Fa sel . With neither Niswander nor Anger under contract beyond 2021, the stage is set for what could and should be one of the most intriguing camp battles for the Cowboys. You'll get a kick out of watching this one unfold.

Giants clinch fifth straight losing seas

The lost to the , 37-21, on Sunday to clinch their fifth consecutive losing season. New York is currently 4-9 on the season with four games remaining on the schedule.It Joey Gallo Jersey continues a recent trend for the Giants.Since making the playoffs in 2016, the Giants have accumulated an 18-46 record (that's not including the current 2021 season). During that time, the team has had four different head coaches and struggled to maintain any level of consistency.During the 2017 season, Ben McAdoo served as the Giants head coach and lost 10 of the team's first 12 games before being fired.When McAdoo was fired, Steve Spagnuolo took over as the interim head coach and the Giants went 1-3 over the final four games of that season.Over the next two seasons, Pat Shurmur served as the franchise's Drew Robinson Jersey head coach and also had his fair share of struggles. He had a 9-23 record in his two years with the Giants before being fired following the 2019 season.Joe Judge is the current Giants head coach and went 6-10 in his first season with the team in 2020.One of the biggest reasons for the Giants' struggles has been the quarterback position. That was obviously something that the franchise didn't need to worry about in the 2000s when they had two-time MVP under center. But the team hasn't exactly enjoyed a ton of stability at the position since he retired after the 2019 season.Prior to Manning's final season, the Giants selected quarterback with Matt Moore Jersey the No. 6 pick in the 2019 . Jones' tenure in New York has been inconsistent.
