The Bucs will try and improve from what was a horrible season a year ago, as they embark on the 2010 Tampa Buccaneers Schedule. The Buccaneers struggled their way to a disappointing 3-13 record out of the NFC South, but a solid draft and higher hopes for 2010 has spearheaded their off-season workouts and eagerness to get the season started.
Tampa Bay struggled mightily on offense last year, tabbing only 15 points per game, while surrendering an average of 25 points to their opponents and giving up at least 24 points in nine of their first 11 games in 2009.
The Buccaneers will need to improve their play in their NFC South division, as they tabbed just a 1-5 record on the year. If Tampa Bay is to have any chance at competing for the 2010 division crown, it will start with the record in the NFC South.
