Fri, 10 Feb 2012 10:30:00 PSTBuccaneers Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) -
The Bucs are rebuilding their offense around quarterback Josh Freeman.
While it's true Freeman took a big step backward last season by throwing 16 touchdowns and 22 interceptions, new coach Greg Schiano believes Freeman can revert to his 2010 form, when he went 10-6 with 25 touchdowns and only six interceptions.
The biggest strength of the team may be the offensive line. Starting left guard Jeremy Zuttah, who played for Schiano at Rutgers, is an unrestricted free agent. But left tackle Donald Penn, center Jeff Faine, right guard Davin Joseph and right tackle Jeremy Trueblood return.
Schiano plans to take some of the pressure off that offensive line by making the Bucs a run-first club that uses play-action passes to take shots downfield.
