Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Carlton Davis has a message for anyone who is overlooking his team after Tom Brady retired.
"We're about to do it to 'em," Davis said, per Tyler Dunne of Go Long (h/t Shanna McCarriston of CBS Sports). "Anybody who feels we've lost Tom—and lost something—is going to be in for a rude awakening. A rude awakening. Tom was a great addition for us, but obviously it's a team sport. Obviously, you need components to be successful. We still have those components. And I'm only getting better."
The defense will be a major part of Tampa Bay's effort to win a third straight NFC South crown, and the cornerback is not lacking confidence in his unit.
