Bucs drafted Scott and Trotter to go after the QB too not just Bain so I just think Bowles is set in his ways.

We will see a lot less blitzing this season.

Not true, nor is it backed by any historical data. 

If anything, it will be the exact opposite. 

Thank you, DH.

Knees knees are connected to his piehole on some of his takes. This one was just stupid. Bowles will always blitz more and then blitz again.

If we keep the same blitz rate we will be more effective because we have superior talent than recent years.

But, you said we won’t. 

So, which is it?

Look Bowles historian.  I think we will have less blitzing by a considerable measure.  But if we do or if we don’t, the defense is going to be better.

If we have Vea we should absolutely be better since we have better talent on our defense. Offense if healthy should be better too. There's not really any excuses in my book for Bowles this year.

Look Princess, it’s not my fault you want to flip-flop between takes within 14 hours. 

Draw a bubble bath, put on some Sarah McLachlan, and gently massage your bean. 

Good news, the rough part of your current cycle only lasts a few days.

It’s funny that any fan would be concerned with any approach to defense as long as we are better.  We could blitz everyone on every down and as long as we improve a ton, I will be happy.

Nowhere to go but up... We will def be improved.

Will it be enough? Will it be a function of talent or will Bowles create a delta in production via his play calling and timely blitzing?

I think time has passed Bowles by but the pass rush should improve.

I think all three phases of our team improve over the injury riddled crap we saw last season.  

Alas, many on here won’t enjoy it.  

 

There isn’t a single poster on here who has seen more Buc’s games than I have.  There’s a jaded Buc’s fan in all of us if you have been here long enough.  I refuse to be some cynic who wants to be on the side of “I told you so” like some Colin Cowherd honk, when we appear to have made improvements just about everywhere.  It’s August.  Try to be optimistic with this team.

You're correct, as that's something you don't have to worry about very often. Like, not at all.
