The Buccaneers have their sights set on the postseason for the first time in over a decade, and with Tom Brady now the man under center, the prospect of a postseason berth seems more realistic than ever.
Tampa Bay has certainly garnered plenty of attention this offseason with big moves that include both the signing of Brady and the acquisition of All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski. And while there may be some bandwagon fans jumping aboard this season, it seems one lifelong Bucs fan has high hopes for this team heading into 2020.
See what former Buccaneer and current Cowboys defensive tackle Gerald McCoy had to say recently.

McCoy was a franchise favorite during his nine-year run with the Buccaneers. What’s sad about the prospect of Tampa Bay making the postseason in 2020 is that McCoy won’t be a part of the team. Despite a stellar career with the Bucs, McCoy never got to the playoffs. Maybe that’ll change this year with the Cowboys. Plus, I think the NFL would love the idea of a Cowboys-Bucs playoff game.
