Broussard believes that the first 4 games will be the most challenging for Brady and his Buccaneers roster as they face potential contenders. The Buccaneers will face the Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Green Bay Packers, and the Kansas City Chiefs to begin their campaign. While all 4 will present challenging situations, Brady will up to prove the predictions wrong one more time.

Are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with Tom Brady 2022 SB favorites?

The Buccaneers are in one of the easiest divisions in the NFC South and will be a favorite to clinch the title easily. But they will face a lot of competition from within the NFC Conference, similar to last season. The franchise will be among the favorites to lift the Vince Lombardi Trophy, but only after they put in the hard yards in every game.

A huge reason behind Broussard’s prediction for the upcoming NFL campaign for the team rests upon Tom Brady. The 15-time Pro Bowler was the shining light for the Tampa Bay fans in a difficult stop-start season.

He ended the season while recording 5,316 passing yards, 43 TD passes, and 12 INTs.

The legendary Buccaneers QB will be entering what could potentially turn out to be his swansong season in the NFL. Amidst recent reports, the Buccaneers appear ready to go all in to win big in the 2022 NFL campaign.
