Bucs need to turn up the pressure in 2020

If you don’t know about the website Football Outsiders, then I highly suggest you visit it once we’re done here. They offer free advanced analytics that really help put team performance into context.

Every year, they come out with a ‘Defense by Number of Pass Rushers’ piece where they give out not only the frequency of how often teams send three, four, five, or even six-plus pass rushers, but they also give the pressure rate in those scenarios, as well.

FO released its 2020 version on Thursday and as expected, the first team I looked at was the Bucs.
