Buccaneers passing offense can mask lackluster rushing attack
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers rushing attack has gotten off to a slow start. It may not matter if Ryan Fitzpatrick can continue to shred defenses through the air.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have enjoyed a rocket start to the 2018 campaign. Ryan Fitzpatrick has taken the league by storm leading the Bucs to a 2-0 record for the first time since 2010.
The Bucs boast the top passing offense in the league as Fitzpatrick has thrown for 819 yards. Behind Fitzpatrick’s arm, Tampa Bay is averaging a robust 37 points per game.
The only issue with the Bucs offense so far has been the running game. Peyton Barber hasn’t had much success on the ground, and Ronald Jones has been a healthy scratch in both games.
