The Tampa Bay Buccaneers make it to Super Bowl 53 in Atlanta after an incredible bounce-back season.
A season after the Eagles pulled off the impossible the Bucs stun the world by making it to the big game.
After a Defensive Player of the Year campaign from Kwon Alexander and great campaign from rookie sensation Ronald Jones, the Bucs are Super Bowl bound for the first time since 2003!
Jameis Winston utilizes his new running back to add emphasis to the play action pass. This allows him to find one of his five receiver weapons in the end zone 40 times in the 2018 NFL Season.
In their own bounce-back season under Jon Gruden the Oakland Raiders surprise everybody by making the Super Bowl beginning the post-season as a wild-card team.
Must Read: Joint Practice Offers Chance to Change Mentality
The Raiders defense improves after the high-risk pick Maurice Hurst proves he should have been a first-round pick and the combination of him and Khalil Mack make a threatening defensive duo.
Derek Carr and his trio of wide receivers with Amari Cooper, Martavis Bryant, and Jordy Nelson prove to be a top-tier passing offense.
While Doug Martin is still a below average running back, but the Raiders don’t need him much with Jalen Richard and Marshawn Lynch proving to be an admirable duo themselves.
Jon Gruden’s moves this off-season may not help the Raiders in the long run, but he does know how to take a good team away from a good coach and take them to the next step.
In a rematch of the 2003 game the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have a good chance at snagging their second Lombardi Trophy.
