49ers vs Bucs Preview

The San Francisco 49ers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers link up in a battle between two teams looking to drastically improve on their records from last season. The 49ers lost starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in the first game of the 2018 season – sending them into a tailspin they wouldn’t recover from. Finishing 4-12, the 49ers are hoping Garoppolo picks up where he left off at the end of the 2017 season and proves himself capable of leading the 49ers to a winning record and playoff berth in the NFC West.

Tevin Coleman joins Matt Breida to form what looks to be an exciting backfield for the 49ers. Breida put together a quietly brilliant season last year, putting up over 1,000 total yards. The offensive line is coming off a shaky 2018 and in order to take the most advantage of the rushing attack and the return of Garoppolo. Defensively, former Tampa Bay Buccaneer Kwon Alexander comes in to help fortify the front seven along with rookie pass-rusher Nick Bosa. While young, the 49ers defensive unit has the talent to put together an excellent campaign.

The Tampa Bay Bucs underwent a major regime change this offseason, bringing on former Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians. Tampa Bay has the talent in place to boast one of the best offenses in the NFL, yet inconsistent quarterback play from Jameis Winston have limited the Bucs’ success so far during his tenure. Arians is known for his work with quarterbacks and is tasked with helping to solve the Winston puzzle and get the most out of Tampa’s franchise quarterback.

Winston looks to be loaded with receiving talent once again as aside from Pro-Bowler Mike Evans, the Bucs have emerging threat Chris Godwin out wide while OJ Howard gives them an elite pass-catching threat out of the tight end spot. Winton’s primary achilles’ heel has been his tendency to turn the ball over and should Arians find a way to help limit that number, he should be able to turn the Bucs into one of the most dangerous ariel attacks in the NFL.

Tampa lost a few key pieces on defense as aside from Alexander, franchise cornerstone Gerald McCoy also found himself on the way out. The Bucs did bring Ndamukong Suh onboard to help plug the hole McCoy left and drafted rookie linebacker Devin White – who has the potential to turn into a key playmaker and a franchise centerpiece in his own right.
