Jameis Winston is well on his way to being the face of the Buccaneers franchise for a long time. He completed over 60% of his passes in 2016 and threw for 4,000 in each of his first two seasons.
But he doesn’t belong on this list yet.
So who does? As we go back and look at Bucs history starting in 1976, there is one overriding theme. That theme is defense. Even when the Bucs were going winless, they had players like Lee Roy Selmon on the defensive side of the ball. In the late 90’s into the 2000’s, you all know the names. Warren Sapp and company will live in fans’ memories for decades to come.
But, believe it or not, we can go through and find five quarterbacks that belong on this list. None of them are named Jameis Winston, and not Steve Young either.
We start with number five.
