No, its not going to be a blank page! There were some bright spots for the Bucs this year, just not that many. But there are reasons to be optimistic for the future based on some things we saw this season.Kicking game is as solid as its ever been. Just as the Defense is the worst ever, the kicking game is the best ever! Connor Barth broke Steve Christie's record for 85% success by kicking at a 92.9% rate! That means he never misses pretty much! His only two misses on the year (he went 26 of 28) came from the 40s and 50s range, and they barely missed! Bucs fans who were sore over the release of Matt Bryant need not worry any more, Barth has kicked 15 FGs in a row, and going into next year that record which is the longest current streak in the NFL will continue until he finally misses; IF he misses!! Barth was tied for best in the NFL this season with only Matt Bryant at his 93% average, but we'll put Bryant ahead because he was 27 of 29. Min of 5 kicks required for grading. ...
