The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are preparing for their playoff game for Wildcard Weekend. After winning the big game a year ago, Tampa Bay is hopeful to make another run for the Super Bowl. Star wide receiver Mike Evans opens up on what Tom Brady means to this franchise.

According to Rick Stroud, Evans claims that Brady's preparation during the postseason is just a ramped-up version of what he does in the regular season. As long as Tom Brady is under center, the Buccaneers will have a fighting chance in the playoffs.

This approach makes sense, as Tom Brady is following the exact same process but with a bit more intensity. Why make drastic changes when you're already experiencing success in your preparation? The Buccaneers are in good hands and they should be able to remain competitive whenever Brady chooses to retire.

For the young players on this team, they're witnessing how the best player in NFL history prepares in the playoffs. This will likely leave a lasting effect on the organization as a whole, which is great news for the Buccaneers.

Tampa Bay is set to take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the first round of the postseason. It should be a great matchup, but it's one the Buccaneers should win. We should see Tom Brady connect with Mike Evans often throughout the playoffs, as he's the best weapon available in the passing game.

Look for Tom Brady and the Buccaneers to make a long run in the playoffs as they chase after a second consecutive Super Bowl title. It'll be a tough journey, as this year looks to be a wide-open race.
