In my personal opinion I believe the Bucs will have a 9-7 season and there are a few reasons why I believe this.  The Bucs have been struggling to get out of the cellar in the NFC South, and I believe this is finally the year that it happens.

Although they currently have one of the most difficult schedules in the NFL, which should not be ignored, iron sharpens iron.  A revamped defensive scheme along with two years in Coach Koetter’s offense should do the team well.  If the newly acquired players flourish in their new environment, based upon the pre season, it should be a good year.

Look to see an extraordinary  jump from our quarterback Jameis Winston.  This will be the year he sets his name in the same ranks as Cam Newton, Andrew Luck, and Russell Wilson.  The young guns across the NFL will soon be taking over.
