Terminating Bowles would be a complete house cleaning because it would be all of Arian's staff and Arians himself at VP.
I don't see them doing that, especially if Brady is moving on/retiring
that's the thing though....other than SF and maybe Miami; Tampa is the best spot for Brady in terms of talent and ability to win.
i can see him walking about if the Bucs win superbowl this year but good lord only die hard buc fans think we have a shot. Everyone else saw how much we struggled with a third string QB led Arizona nose dive team haha
so if SF or MIA dont want Brady, does Brady move on just to move on or does he see we are only a few reloads away from being 2020,2021 superbowl contenders again?
We have bent over backwards for the guy so if it means getting rid of a coach (Arians...erm i mean Bowles), and means keeping Brady. I think we are all for it...
Give Brady Gronk, Jensen, maybe upgrade LT and let's see him put up 30 burgers each game again.
Interesting idea.
I think Brady retires. I think he is great and many Bucs fans think he is great, but I think he probably sees some of his skills eroding. Just being fair and trying to be real, not a shot at Brady.
If he did stay here and Payton was out there, Payton is not coming here because we'd have to trade for him, so that would mess up the most common speculated plan for Brady.
Also, aren't we in rough shape now in terms of the cap? Cant profess to follow it, so that's why I ask. Haven't we sold our soul to win such that we are almost forced to clean house on some guys. If so, inconsistent with taking one more shot with Brady?

so yeah Brady did take a step back but he did go through a divorce which is not easy. Also, as you know, coaching and offensive line holding him back.
there is no denying Brady needs help, hence he had an embarrassment of riches winning with Tampa. Take out Gronk, AB, rehabbing Godwin, Jensen, Marpet, Cappa....and you see the result...
i'm suggesting that the goat is still in there but need to reload team.
there's ways around the cap except im not sure with Brady counting $35M against the cap anyway next year. If he re-signs, we can probably push that. If he doesn't, we are in trouble and likely tanking next year with Trask/Gabbert/Winston
i don't see a scenario where if Brady leaves that we try to compete next year.
