Joint Practice Helping Buccaneers Adjust

Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ coach Dirk Koetter had to be pleased with what he saw at practice Wednesday. The receivers looked dominant, Jason Pierre-Paul made the highest paid lineman in football look like a rookie, and the teams kept things civil - unlike the Redskins/Jets and Texans/49ers.

One thing Koetter pointed out was that doing these joint practices forces you to adjust to your opponent, not stick to what is on the coach’s sheets. It will help them once game days roll around and they have to do it for real and that isn’t something you can quite do when you’re playing against yourself.
