NOPE! Team isn’t deep enough. They’ll win the division but won’t go far in the playoffs. Injuries will catch up to them like last year. Julio Jones and Akeem Hicks arleady nicked up.
It takes a lot of luck to win an SB. The Bucs have the talent but injuries, ref calls, bounce of the ball and even schedule…a lot of variables adding a large does of LUCK to the equation.
Having said that…if I had to pick just ONE team to bet on it would be the Bucs.
We are intiimately aware of the Bucs depth because of our fandom. We may have opinions on starting lineups, QBs/WR’s Defenses across the league but does anybody really know about other teams depth. E.G. If the Niners hadn’t literally been forced to keep Jimmy G they would be totally hosed right now.
Do we give the Niners credit for smart move in keeping him? Or do we think they’re lucky that nobody else would pay market value for him. IMHO its a bit of BOTH.

The Injury list unfortunately can take anyone out of contention.

One game at a time…lets get to 10 wins first.

“Defense wins championships”, and that defense is scary good, at least, so far.

Yes. D is kicking ass and the O will steadily improve.

What Madmax said. I get that these polls are fun and all but its way to early in the season for this.
