Tampa Bay Bucs: A Look at New Defensive Coaching Staff of Lovie Smith (Yahoo Contributor Network)

COMMENTARY | Fans of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers may naturally concentrate on the offseason need to improve an offense that posted a league-worst 277 yards per game in 2013. While that task must receive the highest importance, supporters should not forget the bread-and-butter of new head coach Lovie Smith is defense. As a former pupil of legendary defensive-minded leaders, such as Tony Dungy and Monte Kiffin, the Bucs' new coach will surely demand progress on the defensive side of the ball. Yet, even with talent like Gerald McCoy and Darrelle Revis, Tampa Bay still ranked in the NFL's bottom third of defenses last year.
