Over Raheem Morris’ three-year tenure with the franchise, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers joined the Bills as either 31st or 32nd in rushing yards allowed, rushing yards per carry allowed and rushing touchdowns allowed.

Under Greg Schiano and defensive coordinator Bill Sheridan, the Buccaneers drafted Mark Barron with the seventh overall pick. Barron was considered one of the safest picks in the draft as an in-the-box saftety.

Schiano, Barron, former third overall pick Gerald McCoy and second round pick Lavonte David have completely reformed the rushing defense.

The Buccaneers rank first in both rushing yards and yards per rush allowed.

The Buccaneers, however, rank amongst the worst passing defenses in the NFL.
