I thought last year the Buccaneers were the most entertaining team in the NFL. Thanks mainly to Famous Jameis and the roller coaster of events he orchestrated on the field.
This year could be a Netflix mini series in the making.

So long as they shore up the depth on the offensive line, they will be a force to be reckoned with. Need I say that the Super Bowl is here in Tampa next year, how nice would that be for Bucs fans

i also wonder if brady has enough left for this offense to reach it's potential. as we saw last season, once some of these old QB's start going downhill, it's a pretty steep drop. he isn't exactly the best deep ball thrower for a guy like evans even when he's 100%. but, this team could be a top 3 team if they can protect brady and get a pass defense. just cutting winston's 50 projected int's by half or more will mean more W's for this team. should be interesting. if we have a season.
i'd avoid the team wins total over though. and i guess i won't be playing as many TB team total points overs next season. they were money last season.

Tom Brady goes from the worst collective TE unit(minus the Bears) to what I'm seeing as the best.
Gronk, OJ Howard and Cameron Brate.
3 TE sets will be scary to defend against TB. Question is will Arians deploy them and how often?
BTW, Tampas defense was horrible vs the pass last year. Stout vs the run.
TB12 should help time of possession and cut the int's by half at least. That alone will be a shot in the arm for Tampas pass D. They all ready had offenses playing one dimensional ball.

Under, Tampa will draft/trade for secondary help and offensive line depth, and with minimal picks, try and steal a RB (Cam Akers? Noles) in there somewhere. Todd Bowles is a good DC and the Bucs defense showed much improvement over the previous year. The secondary will be young but better. How much better remains to be seen. Remember too, many of Jameis' TO's put opponents in good field position and allowed them to work a short field instead of the length of the field where you can be more aggressive in your play calling. With Brady and his intelligence and decision making the defense should be in a much better position than they were last year. Turnovers not only take points off the board for your offense, it puts points on the board for your opponent, and no one was worse, historically, than Jameis.

Analytical rankings can be weird at times. I find these guys trying to explain anomalies the best they can, and I applaud them for "trying". Analytics is still fairly new to football.
Tampa's D per dvoa:
#1 vs run
#12 vs pass
#32 overall
Go figure...

Undermysac, you misread Football Outsiders DEF Efficiency Ratings. That #32 ranking was for the 2018-2019 season where they yielded a horrible 29 points per game.
TB finished the 2019-2020 season with the #3 DEF in WEI ranking which emphasizes late-season results.
