Tom Brady retires Shaq Barrett believes Buccaneers will still be 2023 Super Bowl contenders without the GOAT

The are now in the market for a new quarterback. That need comes Andre Dawson Jersey off the heels of from the NFL earlier this week, marking the end to his 22-year career and his two-year stint as quarterback of the Bucs.While brief, Brady's tenure in Tampa was wildly succe sful. The team went a combined 24-9 in the last two regular seasons and was able to win Super Bowl LV during the 2020 season. This year, they won the NFC South for the first time since 2007 thanks to a 13-4 regular-season record. Brady also played at an MVP level, leading the NFL in pa sing yards and pa sing touchdowns in 2021.Naturally, that's a GOAT-sized hole to fill for the Buccaneers, but there does seem to be confidence in the locker room that they'll be able to figure out the quarterback position and still be a force in the NFC."We most definitely are still going to be contenders," said linebacker Shaq Kerry Wood Jersey Barrett, . "We've still got a lot of guys on the team who are hungry to have a taste of being in the Albert Almora Jr Jersey playoffs, to have a taste of winning a Super Bowl. And I know the front office guys, they loved having a taste of the succe s that we had. So if anything, it's a replication. Whoever it takes, we're going to get those guys, and then the guys are going to make it happen, whatever we have to do. The offense has got to pick it up, the defense has got to pick it up, the special teams whatever it is, we're going to make it happen." Barrett said that he didn't try to convince Brady to return, but did tell him that he would love to have him back if that's what he chose to do. Of course, Brady decided to hang up his helmet, leaving the Bucs Cole Hamels Jersey in need of a new QB."Trying to find somebody to replace Tom Brady is impo sible," said Barrett. "There's no other Tom Bradys out there. So we're going to try to find the next best player and help them be the best person they can be, and then rally around him and try to build a contender again." 2021 second-round pick is currently the only quarterback under contract for next season with slated to be an unrestricted free agent. While Tampa Bay could look to promote from within with either one of those signal-callers, they could also dip their toes in the free agent/trade market to see what's behind that door. After all, when they did that back in Ron Santo Jersey 2020, they fetched a pretty good haul in Brady. Can they replicate that this offseason? We'll soon find out.
