Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy won’t have to look far Sunday to find a role model for his defense. He sees the unit that will oppose his offense Sunday — the Broncos defense — as the gold standard.
Tampa Bay, 1-2, is on the other end of the spectrum this season giving up an NFL-high 101 points over their first three games. The Broncos, 3-0, rank in the top-10 in total defensive yards, passing defense and points allowed giving up 57 through three games. The fewest points the Bucs have given up this season is 24 in their lone season opening win against Atlanta.
