Buccaneers defensive front takes strides forward vs. Dolphins

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers took on the Miami Dolphins in their annual preseason clash last night, coming out on top with a final score of 16-14. The Bucs first team played a pretty solid game last week in Pittsburgh against the Steelers, and this week, the depth behind them took a step forward in their first home game.

Coming into the season, we knew the defense was a problem. This was due to a lack of pass rush and lousy play in the back end. Last week in the first look at the new scheme the pass rush was actually alive, and the secondary even got an interception from Vernon Hargreaves that was called back.
