Five Reasons Dirk Koetter is a Step Up for the Buccaneers
Some were surprised when Lovie Smith was fired by the Buccaneers after only two seasons. However, it was a good move, and a step up for the team.
The Buccaneers made an interesting move following the 2015 season. Relieving Mike Smith of his duties after last season did create some questions. The Bucs did improve by four games in 2015. Not only that, but at 6-6, they were in the heat of the playoff race. It fell apart in the final four weeks, but one could argue that Lovie did have them on the right track.
