So
http://www.buccaneerslockerroom.com/authentic-noah-spence-jersey , usually my X Factor will come out on Tuesdays. This week, however, there were
extenuating circumstances. See, there was only one man that could be the X
Factor and that man was DeSean Jackson. However, since he was in concussion
protocol and it was unclear whether or not he would play, I wanted to wait until
we had a definitive decision either way.That time has come and DJax will
play.When facing his former team, Jackson’s teams are 4-1 when DJax plays. He
has 20 receptions for 440 yards and two touchdowns in those five games. Greg
Auman of The Athletic dropped an interesting tidbit on Twitter about DeSean
Jackson; No player in NFL history has more 50+ yards receptions for the Eagles
and no player in NFL history has more 50+ yard receptions against the Eagles
than DeSean Jackson.Given the usage he saw against the Saints, he propensity to
want to wreck his former team, and the connection with Ryan Fitzpatrick, there
is no doubt that DeSean is the ultimate X Factor for this game. DeSean finished
week one with 146 yards receiving and two touchdowns on five receptions, which
accounted for all five of his targets.Yes, the Eagles’ defense is tougher than
New Orleans. No one is disputing that. Their pass rush is better
Womens Noah Spence Jersey , their front seven is better, and they have the ability to shut offenses down. However, just like New Orleans, they don’t have
anyone that can keep up with DJax.So what are the Eagles going to do? Have a man
on DJax and shadow him with a safety over top? Okay, enjoy getting roasted by
Mike Evans and Chris Godwin all day. Are they going to run zone schemes? Okay,
watch Fitz get DJax the ball on short routes in the holes in coverage then watch
DeSean’s legs do work.This is what was missing last season, what has been
addressed this season, and what DJax brings to the table - a dynamic playmaker
that can create electric plays from anywhere on the field. And if you worry
about him too much, he’ll hurt your team by taking on the attention and allowing
his teammates to flourish in the one-on-one matchups.The Eagles are a good team.
A very good team. But so are the Buccaneers. They have an offense unlike any
seen in franchise history and one that has all the pieces to be one of the most
formidable, explosive, and high powered in the NFL. Pick your poison, Eagles.
And hope you don’t pick wrong.Bold Prediction: DeSean Jackson has two touchdown
receptions of over 50 yards Hall of Fame linebacker and Tampa Bay Buccaneers
legend Derrick Brooks had some interesting things to say about his career on
Hear The Spear earlier this week. Brooks spoke on a variety of topics that touch
on Tampa Bay including the 2003 Super Bowl win
Ronald Jones II Jersey White , Jon Gruden, Bruce Arians, and Jameis Winston. “It was very memorable,” Brooks said of his game clinching pick-six
against Oakland in 2003. “It never gets old man. You’re reminded of it every
year. “We send out an anniversary text. Happy birthday, happy anniversary, doing
something to recognize our accomplishment.” Later in the podcast, Brooks was
asked about his former Buccaneers coach Jon Gruden and his plans in Oakland.
Gruden has obviously traded away fan favorites such as Khalil Mack and Amari
Cooper, who both flourished elsewhere in 2018. Brooks offered some thoughts on
Gruden’s process“I think he will be fine,” Brooks said. “Obviously there’s some
turbulent waters now in terms of where they are and the season they didn’t want
to have.“Coach Gruden now has some assets to really build this team. It’s gonna
be some challenges but I think he’s up for it. Through the changes they’ve made
in the last two years we’ll see where the chips falls.” Finally Brooks talked
about new head coach Bruce Arians and Jameis Winston.“It’s more than solid,” He
said on the hire of Arians. “I think it could be the gem that fell into their
laps in terms of the new leadership there.“His history of working with past
quarterbacks is legendary. I think Jameis will be next on that list in terms of
him making an improvement in his all-around game. And it’ll be needed for the
Bucs to succeed”“Again, I am a fan of the hire and I think they’re going to be
successful and turn the team around.”The entire episode can be found below. The
interview with Derrick Brooks starts at 16:15 and most of his thoughts on the
NFL begin at 37:05.
