Dirk Koetter Disappointed In Buccaneers' Offense

Despite getting arguably the biggest win in a decade, head coach Dirk Koetter was disappointed in the Buccaneers’ offensive output.

Defeating the Seattle Seahawks is no small task. Yet, this Tampa Bay Buccaneers team managed to do so on Sunday in convincing fashion – at least, defensively. After going up 14-0 after their first two possessions, the Buccaneers never scored again. The defense held the Seahawks to one field goal and kept them out of the red zone for the entire game.

When Koetter spoke the to the media on Monday, he was happy with the win, but noted it just wasn’t quite good enough;

It’s hard to argue with his point. Roberto Aguayo missed a field goal and the Buccaneers had plenty of scoring opportunities after that first quarter and never capitalized.

If this team is going to legitimately make a run at the postseason, they have to take advantage of every opportunity they get. They can not afford to settle for field goals in the red zone or blow chances after the defense gets a turnover. Playoff teams capitalize. Championship teams capitalize. The Buccaneers have to find ways to do the same.
