Time to put a bow on the 2016 season for the Buccaneers. This means one last report card for a team which had its first winning season since 2010 and won more games this year than it had in the last two combined.
The owners, players and fans alike are all surely disappointed the Buccaneers didn’t find themselves in the post-season pool following their Week 17 victory over the Carolina Panthers, but there’s no denying the feeling of anticipation as this team looks poised to take the next step towards Super Bowl contention.
9-7 may not earn the franchise a playoff spot, but it sure earned them some love from the fan base as they notched six wins in their last eight games.
We know how the team did, now let’s break it down by squads and pass judgement one last time before we put the 2016-17 season to bed.
