On Thursday Authentic Jameis Winston Jersey , the official Twitter account of Sunday Night Football on NBC posed a question: of the NFL teams with one Super Bowl win, which is the best franchise? ber of those teams being the answer to the question. But that’s not really what I took away from that graphic. What really hit me as I looked at those teams is just how much worse the Bucs have been than the rest of them in recent history. It got me thinking about Tampa Bay’s status in the NFL, which definitely isn’t a good one right now.The Eagles won the Super Bowl last year. The Rams are playing for the Lombardi Trophy this year. The Chiefs and Saints just barely missed out on playing for their second Super Bowl victories this past Sunday. The Seahawks made the playoffs this year and have been a solid team for the last several years, even playing for a second trophy the year after winning their first. The Bears got to the postseason this year as well, and appear set to contend for the foreseeable future behind a young quarterback and a defense with a ridiculous amount of talent.Even the Jets (yes, THE NEW YORK JETS) have played for an AFC Championship this decade. Sure, it’s fair to say that New York has had a rough time since that loss in the 2010 playoffs. But even still, that franchise has had success more recently than the Bucs. Tampa Bay hasn’t been to the playoffs in this decade. It hasn’t won a postseason game since winning the Super Bowl on Jan. 26, 2003. That’s just sad, folks.The good news is, the Bucs might be one good year away from losing their “laughing stock” status. Talent hasn’t really been the main issue for Tampa Bay Youth Demar Dotson Jersey , which is why hopes are high for the team under new head coach Bruce Arians, who has a proven track record. Plus, at least the Bucs have a Lombardi Trophy. Everyone go ahead and wave at the Bengals, Bills, Browns, Cardinals, Chargers, Falcons, Jaguars, Lions, Panthers http://www.buccaneersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-bryan-anger-jersey , Texans, Titans and Vikings. I guess things could be worse... Julio Jones will report to training camp with the Atlanta Falcons, the team said late Wednesday after reaching an agreement to renegotiate the star receiver's contract next year.General manager Thomas Dimitroff announced the compromise about 16 hours ahead of Thursday's 4 p.m. reporting deadline, removing a major distraction hanging over a team that is again expected to be one of the top contenders in the NFC."We have had continued dialogue all offseason with Julio and his representation," Dimitroff said. "We have come to an agreement with Julio, and we will readdress everything in 2019. I appreciate everyone's hard work and communication on this."The Falcons had informed Jones several weeks ago that they wouldn't be able to renegotiate his current $71.5 million package, which still has three years remaining and included $47 million in guaranteed money.Jones, who makes an average of $14.25 million a year, was unhappy with his deal after a flurry of new contracts during the offseason dropped Jones down the list of the NFL's highest-paid receivers.Tampa Bay's Mike Evans , Cleveland's Jarvis Landry and Kansas City's Sammy Watkins are among those now making more per year than Jones, a two-time All-Pro and five-time Pro Bowler who caught 88 passes for 1 Lavonte David Jersey ,444 yards last season.Jones skipped offseason workouts at the team's training facility as well as a mandatory minicamp to demonstrate his unhappiness. His next option was to hold out during training camp, which could have led to fines of $40,000 per day.Neither side wanted to go down a path that could've damaged what has otherwise been a good relationship. So, it looks as though Jones will get a new deal in 2019 鈥?not as soon as he would've liked, but a year earlier than the Falcons would normally agree to renegotiate a long-term contract.Atlanta is eager to pair Jones with another former Alabama receiver, Calvin Ridley, who was this year's first-round pick. The team hopes that Ridley, as he develops, can help to lure coverages away from Jones, who is often blanketed by two or three defenders.The Falcons said salary cap limitations prevented them from discussing a new deal with Jones in 2018 . The team already agreed to a five-year, $150 million extension with quarterback Matt Ryan Authentic Chris Conte Jersey , the most lucrative deal in NFL history, and is now focused on working out new contracts for defensive tackle Grady Jarrett, offensive guard Jake Matthews and safety Ricardo Allen."This adjustment does not impede us from working on other extensions with other key members of our football team," Dimitroff said. "We will continue to work on those contracts going forward."Jones hasn't talked with the Atlanta media in months, keeping a low profile during the contract brouhaha. In one of his rare public appearances, he told TMZ that he has a good relationship with the franchise that pulled off a blockbuster trade with Cleveland to make him a first-round pick in 2011."I'm just working on getting myself better," he said. "There's no bad blood between me and the team or anything like that."Jones hasn't been totally estranged from his teammates during the offseason. This month, he took part in Ryan's private passing camp in California along with about a dozen of his teammates.All throughout the contract talks, Jones remained in the good graces of coach Dan Quinn."Sometimes football and business intersect," Quinn said after Jones skipped the three-day minicamp. "That's OK and that happens a lot."Follow Paul Newberry on Twitter at pnewberry1963 . His work can be found at s://apnews/search/paul%20newberry
