导出博客文章TAMPA, Fla. -- Gerald McCoy knows better than to draw any conclusions from
preseason success.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers led the NFL with 16 sacks -- one more
than the Denver Broncos, however the four-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle isnt
ready to declare the team has fixed its pass rush.Its only preseason, it doesnt
count until Sunday, McCoy said looking ahead to the Bucs regular-season opener
against NFC South rival Atlanta.Yes, its a positive and we can build off that.
Weve shown that we can get there, but ... everything changes when it counts, he
added. Game plans, matchups, tempo all that stuff changes. So, its a positive we
can build off of, but it doesnt matter until Sunday.Bolstering an inconsistent
pass rush and improving a porous secondary were the teams top priorities during
the offseason. The Bucs finished with 38 sacks last season, when opposing
quarterbacks completed 70 percent of their passes and threw for 31
touchdowns.General manager Jason Licht signed defensive end Robert Ayers Jr.,
four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Brent Grimes and linebacker Daryl Smith in free
agency, then used the clubs first two picks in the draft to select cornerback
Vernon Hargreaves III and pass rusher Noah Spence.Another key move was Coach
Dirk Koetters decision to hire former Atlanta Falcons coach Mike Smith as
defensive coordinator.Players have embraced what they describe as a
multi-faceted, aggressive scheme that produced encouraging results during the
preseason. Thirteen different players had at least half a sack, with reserve
Jacquies Smith leading the way with four.McCoy, who led the Bucs with 8+ sacks
last season, is confident the team is capable of replicating the success in the
regular season.Ayers had 9+ sacks for the New York Giants in 2015, and Spence is
a second-round draft pick out of Eastern Kentucky who likely would have been a
first-rounder if not for off-the-field issues he had early in his college career
at Ohio State.William Gholston is the other starting end, backed up by Jacquies
Smith, a third-year pro who entered the league as an undrafted free agent and
had 13+ sacks for the Bucs over the past two seasons.Now we can actually
game-plan people, single out some guys, find some good matchups, McCoy said. In
preseason, youre kind of just going, beating the guy in front of you. Its still
going to have to be that, but we can game-plan guys, the quarterback
protections, those kinds of things.Koetter also likes what hes seen, adding the
team is developing the type of depth necessary to have a consistent rush,
beginning Sunday against the Falcons Matt Ryan.I also think our defensive staff,
led by Mike, is doing a really good job of moving those guys around, the coach
said.Theyre really playing offense with defensive players. Thats what offenses
do, they move guys into different positions to try and get them on matchups, and
our defense is doing the same thing with the pass rush right now.---AP NFL
