Toughest Remaining Team?

  1. 1. Who is the toughest remaining team, other than Buff



Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Seems like most think the Afc representative is going to take it all this year. Pretty wild that Josh is the only qb without a SB ring out of the four left, that def makes it a more difficult road... but im going out on a limb to say I think the Bucs are the toughest out left.

 

All these teams have crazy weapons and I do think that the deciding factor is going to be experience, and Brady knows this routine better than anyone.

If we can push past KC, I think buf/tb is a coin flip 50/50 game. Helluva ride but wouldn't have it any other way!

I voted Bucs.  I know they aren't the best team left. But you can not discount Brady.  His presence and the emotional carnage he has caused this franchise is a hurdle that must be overcome.  Like the Bulls finally getting past the Pistons.  The Bills must get past the Patriots (done) and Brady.

Yep, Brady is still the scariest out to me.

 

Never ever afraid of an Andy Reid team, I’ll give him props though for last year. Never afraid of the Packers either. If one of these 2 teams win it all this year, oh well, anything’s possible.

Chiefs narrowly are IMO, but all 4 remaining teams are pretty dangerous and legit shot at winning it all.

Well yes, I am assuming healthy Mahomes in that regard obviously.

I took the Bucs because that defense was swarming last week. We already knew they had an offense and Brady is gonna be Brady. Devin White though looks like the year 2000 version of Ray Lewis.

I like the enthusiasm, I hate the comparison...let the guy make the pro bowl before we compare him to an arguably top 3 linebacker of all time

To my super stooopid and untrained eye, the thing holding the Bucs back from being firmly mentioned as the best team in the NFC is Bruce Arians. Bare with me here. Bucs play like a collection of great players, not a team. Their defense is top notch, but offensively it looks like Brady is playing in BA's system, they don't look like they are on the journey together. It looks like Brady runs the plays in BA's playbook and calls the plays asked at the line. They aren't terribly methodical which is Brady's strong suit.
