The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had a rollercoaster of a season in 2024. The team started out better than we could have expected. They even gave the Lions their lone loss of the season, but despite that, they have struggled to find their footing on solid ground.
As a Bucs fan reading this, I know you want NFC South teams to struggle, but it is important to understand those teams as much as you do with Tampa Bay. That means our coverage this offseason is going to be complete.
Let me lay out the talking points and things to look for as this Bucs team enters December and beyond.
Coaching Staff Coverage
A coaching change isn’t expected with Todd Bowles, but if something were to happen, we, of course, would have you covered. The more likely things to see occur would be staff changes on defense and offensive coordinator Liam Coen getting some head coaching interviews. Last year we saw Dave Canales head to the Panthers to overhaul their offense, Coen could be tasked with something similar around the league.
If they are going to see staff overhauls, we will make sure you have a strong understanding of who could be coming onto the staff.
Free Agent Coverage
The Bucs have several big-time decisions to make in free agency, none larger than Chris Godwin. Coming off an injury that has seen him be taken out for the season, the team is expected to be in store for a tough contract negotiation.
Outside of Godwin, other players who are seeing their contracts expire include Joe Tyron-Shoyika, Lavonte David, William Gholston, Justin Skule, and Anthony Nelson. We could be looking at a very different team on defense, especially. Whatever moves they make, we will have them covered from every angle for you here at Bucs Wire.
NFL Draft Coverage
Now, for this part, some people may check out or stay tuned in. The NFL Draft is the biggest event on the football calendar outside of the Super Bowl. Every team and its fanbase get excited, and the results lead to new hope being eternal for every fanbase.
We will be doing draft reports on the Bucs’ and other teams’ needs in the NFC South. Winning the division seems to be an up-in-the-air calendar event from season to season. This Bucs team is the closest of any to having sustained success, but others are hot on their heels.
We hope you stay tuned to Bucs Wire, where we will keep you informed about everything related to the team and the NFC South.
