Raheem Morris is an aggressive head coach for the most part. He isn't afraid to go for it on certain situations and sometimes gets too aggressive which backfired. In terms of being the head coach of the team of course. He makes dumb challenges though especially when the calls are as clear as day. People probably don't know that he called the Bucs defense the last 6 weeks of the season. Greg Olson is the OC. Can't really get into detail because he's a guy who had to make a NFL playbook 10 days before the season started and had to make plays as weeks progressed. Hell we actually "practiced" offensive plays DURING the games. That's how bad it got. I think we're a hybrid offense with ZBS and man tendencies. More man scheme than anything the guy who brought ZBS got fired so. The DC IS the Head Coach. Base defense is "tampa 2" but Morris is shying away from being predictable EVERY single play under last defensive coordiantors in Jim Bates and Kiffin. Some drives he calls the D were we sit back and drop 8 while in others he isn't afraid to let the dogs loose, so to speak. I've seen him blitz more than 5 guys and get mad results from it. His blitz packages are effective but vulnerable, the defense as whole is better because of that. People don't know Morris was the D-CORD for Kansas State in 2007 where he took a bunch of untalented players produce at a respectable level. I believe that year they ranked the best they ever had that decade when he was there. Morris knows how to disguise coverages well, he's got that down to a T.

I'd say character is important to this team. Active in the trade market, Mark Dominick always looks for ways to improve the team. Downfall? The owners who can't pay the "top" players the money they want: guaranteed money/bonus. Its the reason why we haven't landed a blue chip player since Simeon Rice. Defensive line is the biggest hole and the strength is our LB core, sadly. It'll take at least 5 new GOOD starters(DT, DE, DE, WR, CB) to even think about a championship run.

I don't know how to give good insight, but I can predict the future.

The Buccaneers will go 19-0, NFL MVP Josh Freeman will throw 43 TD passes, and run for 11 more.

Raheem Morris is a young up and coming coach that has been a round football for a long time. Despite being only 33 years old he's been around football and coaching football for nearly 12 years now.

He has learned from one of the best Defensive Coordinators of all time in Monte Kiffen, but he is truly a student of the game. While his background lies in the Tampa-2 he uses pieces of defenses from multiple other philosophies. Here is a nice little breakdown of his philosophy:
