2. The NFC South favorites

Ultimately, the goal is to win.

If the Buccaneers sign Tom Brady, they’re automatically the favorites to win the NFC South.

Who cares if New Orleans brought back Drew Brees?

When you combine Tom Brady- one of the greatest QBs in NFL history- with the Buccaneers’ wide receiver core, and then add on that Tampa Bay defense, you are talking about a team with all the pieces in place to make the playoffs and compete.

Brady would elevate the talent around him and would be a guy that Tampa Bay could rely upon to make the plays to win close games.
