Jaguars OC Press Taylor reveals what to expect from Buccaneers' defense

The Jacksonville Jaguars have one of the easiest remaining schedules left in the NFL, but that does not mean that this upcoming game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be that. The team, just a few hours south of Jacksonville, is currently red-hot. Just look at their film against the Green Bay Packers if you need any further clarification of that statement.

Baker Mayfield is playing out of his mind and is starting to catch everyone's eyes. But the one thing not getting talked about as much has to be the Buccaneers' defense. Sure, it's not as good as it was back when they won the Super Bowl, but it's still very good.

Preparing for their defense will almost be like looking in the mirror. Their defense uses a ton of pressure, just like the Jaguars' defense tends to do. Their best bet is to treat it exactly like practice, just like Doug Pederson often says. The Buccaneers' defense certainly isn't any slouch.

"Pressure. The same thing you see with our defense," offensive coordinator Press Taylor told reporters on Thursday. "There's five on the line, there's five guys pressuring a lot of times. Depending on where that fifth guy is coming from or where the other two are coming from, guys are dropping out. There's a lot of loaded boxes. 

"They're really good against the run; this defense, particularly, has been really good for a pretty long time since Coach Bowles has been there. They're doing a good job crowding the line, stopping the run, making things hard, identifying pressure, picking up pressure. They do a really good job; it's not an easy task."
