Tampa Bay is also #5 overall in yards allowed per play.Bucs are #7 overall against the pass and #27 against the run.Bucs are tied #5 overall in sacks (with Ravens and Bengals).Bucs are #2 overall in terms of forced fumbles.Bucs scoring defense is #32 in the NFL.With the bye week coming up I think Lovie and his staff can sit down and address the red zone woes that has been the problem with the Bucs. Overall, the defense is the surprise of the season thus far.Lavonte David and Kwon Alexander need deeper drops to disrupt pass patterns and make cleaner tackles. It seems to me there is a lot of miscommunication on the backend with the safties and poor angles. Defensive line is playing top ball but there is room for improvement in containing mobile QB's.Overall, I am satisfied with the defense and I think there is room for improvement.
