- PK Gay wins the job and retains it, but struggles much more than he did at Utah (XPs no longer being a Pressure-neutral confidence/rhythm gaining free swing but rather a crucial nail-biter + much heavier air than the high, dry clime of Utah + high stakes + TB legacy).
- Giveaways recede toward the mean (but certainly don’t vanish).
- A few injuries on the OL/DL test our depth and the results are...not good.
- Ronald Jones continues to struggle, his snaps are limited, and he may not survive the season.
- Arians takes advantage of JW’s athleticism in the RZ Tight so we see small uptick in performance there. However, we’re still NFL average to below in the RZ because the Running Game is still an unreliable mess.
- Defense forces many, many more negative plays and TOs than it has annually in the last 5 years.
- LVD and White start off hot, but one of them gets bitten by the injury bug.
- We play 6 DBs on 50+ % of snaps on defense.
- Chris Godwin and OJ each have really big years (see below).
- Jameis throws for a ton of Yards and 30+ TDs Passing/Rushing, but still too many Giveaways.
