2008 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Football Preview:
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have become one of the toughest teams in the NFL. The Tampa Bay Bucs struggled last season and missed the playoffs, and even had some struggles early this season, but they’ve established that they are in the hunt for a playoff berth, and will be a tough team to get through for anyone with Super Bowl aspirations. A game this year at Raymond James in Tampa is an exciting experience where Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans can watch these perennial underdogs led by quarterback Jeff Garcia fight to bring the team back to the glory they saw just a few years ago.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers play in the South Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) of the National Football League (NFL). The Tampa Bay Bucs were founded in 1976 along with the Seattle Seahawks as part of that year’s NFL expansion. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers did find some early success with a tough defense led by Hall of Famer Lee Roy Selmon. That success was short lived, however, and after 1982, Tampa bay wouldn’t make the playoffs again for 14 years. In 1996, with the arrival of coach Tony Dungy, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made their big turnaround. Dungy made the team a playoff contender again also by building a strong defense. When Dungy was hired as head coach in Indianapolis in 2002, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers essentially traded players and draft picks for Jon Gruden, head coach of the Oakland Raiders. Gruden would lead the team to a Super Bowl win in his first year against his former Raider squad – a game that was dubbed “the Gruden Bowl”. The team is still a strong contender if they can stay healthy.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers play home games Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. Raymond James holds up to 75,000 spectators. Opened in 1998, Raymond James Stadium was not long ago considered the “crown jewel” of NFL arenas.
