Three years after winning the Super Bowl, and two years after almost pulling off a near-miraculous comeback against the eventual champion LA Rams in the playoffs, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers roster has holes everywhere. As someone who still sees the Ronde Barber 92-yard pick-six in his nightmares, you’ll forgive me for thinking one simple thought regarding this matter:
Good.
But I digress. Tom Brady’s fearsome desire to set the NFL single-season record for pass attempts and completions (which he managed, completing 490 of his 733 attempts) drove the Bucs to an 8-9 record, yet somehow this was good enough to earn a division title.
