In 2017, the Tampa bay Buccaneers were regular features on NFL Network’s show “Good Morning Football”, as they were the trendy team of that season to potentially make a playoff run.
We all know how that ended, as do the folks over at GMFB.
They got burned from drinking thew hyped up Kool-Aid just like we did, and even though the hype for the 2018 Buccaneers will surely be somewhat tempered, unlike last season, Peter Schrager, one of the hosts of the show, still noted what massive changes the Bucs made to their defense from last season on the show on Thursday.
Most home makeovers are luxurious and fancy. The @Buccaneers ? They tore it all down and got nasty this spring. @PSchrags says the Tampa Bay defense went ugly this offseason… and he loves it. pic.twitter.com/eo87JZSfT3

“They went from being an overpriced, inflated bunch of softies to one of the angriest, meanest defenses in the league,” Schrager said.
Schrager was impressed with the kind of turnaround the Bucs were able to pull on their roster, specifically the defensive line.
Are you just as impressed? Or are you still pumping the brakes?
