An excellent defensive season against all wide receivers. Mediocre performance by the Tampa DL that year as well:

2007 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Starters, Roster, & Players - Pro-Football-Reference.com

LCB Ronde Barber 32 10 16 1.0 sacks, 2 interceptions, 2 fumbles recovered
RCB Phillip Buchanon 27 5 13 0.0 sacks, 3 interceptions, 0 fumbles recovered
SS Jermaine Phillips 28 5 15 1.0 sacks, 4 interceptions, 0 fumbles recovered
FS Tanard Jackson 22 Rook 16 0.0 sacks, 2 interceptions, 3 fumbles recovered

That D also had CB Brian Kelly, CB Sammy Davis, and CB Will Allen (not the Giants guy). A talented, deep group to be sure.

I am also not a big fan of YPGs, which is why I liked the opponents QB rating ranking and TDs allowed. Glad to see the stats about the Ds performance against WRs. Looks like Morris did a good job with that DBs unit, hopefully he can work his magic with our unit.
