HEAD TO HEAD

Tampa Bay 30, Cleveland 13 (August 26, 2016)TAMPA – The Tampa Bay Buccaneers came out strong in Week 3 of the preseason, dominating the Cleveland Browns in a 30-13 victory. After winning the toss and electing to receive, the Buccaneers drove to the Cleveland 30, where kicker Roberto Aguayo cleared a 48-yard field goal to give Tampa Bay an early 3-0 lead. The Browns then faced a third-and-8, but quarterback Robert Griffin III completed a 44-yard pass to wide receiver Josh Gordon which led to a 35-yard field goal by kicker Patrick Murray to tie the game at 3-3 seven plays later. On the ensuing drive, the Buccaneers converted their own third-down opportunity when quarterback Jameis Winston picked up a fumbled snap and took it nine yards to bring up a fresh set of downs. Winston then threw a 23-yard pass to wide receiver Adam Humphries, which was followed by a 14-yard rush by running back Doug Martin. Tampa Bay continued its drive all the way to the three-yard line, where a penalty flag allowed them to replay third-and-goal, where Winston connected with running back Charles Sims for a touchdown, making the score 10-3. Cleveland was forced to punt on its next possession, and Humphries, acting as the return man, took the punt 73 yards for the score, extending the Buccaneers’ lead to 17-3 at the end of the first quarter. The ensuing Browns drive ended with anther punt after defensive end Jacquies Smith sacked Griffin for the second time of the night. Tampa Bay was able to tack on another three points following a 69-yard drive that ended with a 21-yard field goal by Aguayo. Defensive tackle Gerald McCoy and defensive end Robert Ayers split another sack of Griffin on third-and-15 on the following drive, and despite a challenge as to the defense’s possible recovery of the ball, the call stood and Cleveland was able to punt the ball away. On the first play of Tampa Bay’s next possession, Winston and wide receiver Mike Evans connected for a 47-yard pass, followed by a 34-yard touchdown pass between the duo two plays later. At the two-minute warning before halftime, the Browns were able to add seven to make the score 27-10 after Griffin completed a deep pass to Gordon for a 43-yard touchdown. In the third quarter, Cleveland kicker Travis Coons knocked a 26-yard field goal through the uprights, bringing the game to 27-13. The Buccaneers opened the fourth quarter with a drive that was capped by a 27-yard field goal by Aguayo, bringing about the 30-13 score upon which the game would end.

TAMPA BAY VS. CLEVELAND4

Cleveland 22, Tampa Bay 17 (November 2, 2014)CLEVELAND – Visiting Cleveland in Week 9, the Buccaneers played a tight game against the Browns, but several errors ultimately cost Tampa Bay the win. Quarterback Mike Glennon and the Tampa Bay offense took the field to start the game, and proceeded to drive to the Cleveland 13, aided by a 27-yard reception by wide receiver Mike Evans. The Buccaneers were held to a field goal attempt, however, and kicker Patrick Murray’s attempt was blocked and recovered by Cleveland to give the ball to the Browns at their own 23-yard line. Cleveland took advantage in the turn of fortune, scoring eight plays later on a 49-yard field goal by kicker Billy Cundiff, making the score 3-0. On Tampa Bay’s next drive, running back Bobby Rainey nabbed a pass from Glennon for 34 yards on third-and-10, setting the Buccaneers up for a 55-yard field goal, but Murray’s kick fell short. The Buccaneers defense forced a Browns punt, but on the following drive, Glennon was intercepted by defensive back Donte Whitner, who returned the ball 54 yards. Despite Cleveland driving to the Tampa Bay 1, the Browns were held to a field goal. Rainey scuttled down the field on two rushes of over 20 yards on the next drive, putting the Buccaneers in position to score, which came in the form of a 24-yard pass from Glennon to Evans and gave Tampa Bay the 7-6 lead. Cornerback Johnthan Banks then picked off quarterback Brian Hoyer to give the ball to the Buccaneers at the Browns’ 10-yard line, but Cleveland came up with a pick of its own, returning possession to the Browns. However, Cleveland was forced to punt. The Buccaneers responded by driving to the Cleveland 22, where Murray completed a 40-yard field goal to give Tampa Bay a 10-6 advantage. The Browns answered with a field goal of their own, tightening the game to 10-9 as time expired in the first half. With the ball to open the third quarter, Cleveland looked to be held to a field goal, but a neutral zone infraction extended the drive and the Browns were able to score on a two-yard pass from Hoyer to running back Terrance West and the Browns took the lead, 16-10. Following traded punts, the Buccaneers re-took the lead, 17-16, after Glennon hit Evans for a second 24-yard score – the rookie receiver’s first career multi-touchdown game. Early in the fourth quarter, Cleveland marched into Tampa Bay territory, but defensive tackle Clinton McDonald intercepted Hoyer, retuning the ball six yards and giving the Buccaneers possession at their own 39. A sack of Glennon on third-and-11 ended the Tampa Bay drive, however, and the Browns deflected the punt, resulting in field position near midfield. Cleveland then proceeded to score with a 34-yard pass from Hoyer to wide receiver Taylor Gabriel. Cleveland attempted a two-point conversion, but were stopped, leaving the score at 22-17. Late in the fourth quarter, Tampa Bay looked to have converted on fourth-and-1 in Cleveland territory, but an offensive pass interference penalty led to fourth-and-11 near midfield, and Glennon’s pass attempt went incomplete, turning the ball over to Cleveland on downs. The Browns were then able to run down the clock, preserving their 22-17 victory over the Buccaneers.

TAMPA BAY VS. CLEVELAND8

DIRK KOETTER

Dirk Koetter was named the 11th head coach in franchise history on January 15, 2016, after serving as offensive co-ordinator in 2015.

In his first season as an NFL head coach, Koetter led Tampa Bay to a 9-7 record, the team’s most wins since 2010 and the second-most wins by any coach in their first season with the Buccaneers (Jon Gruden – 12).

Over the past two seasons, Koetter has helped guide the Buccaneers to one of the NFL’s top offenses, ranking ninth in yards per game (361.1), having the sixth-highest third-down con-version rate (42.8 pct.) and totaling the sixth-most first downs (676) dur-ing that timeframe. The Buccaneers set a franchise record for third-down conversion rate in 2016 at 43.9 pct. Tampa Bay has posted consecutive seasons with at least 5,500 yards of offense for the first time in fran-chise history. The team has scored at least 340 points in each of the past two seasons, the first time they have reached that mark in back-to-back years. After scoring 342 points (sixth-most in team history) and 37 touch-downs (ninth-most) in 2015, the Buccaneers increased those numbers in 2016, scoring 354 points (fourth-most) and 41 touchdowns (third-most).

In 2016, Koetter continued to help with the development of quarterback Jameis Winston, who set single-season franchise records for passing yards (4,090) and passing touchdowns (28). Winston became the young-est player to throw for 50 touchdowns in NFL history and the first player in league history to throw for at least 4,000 yards in each of his first two seasons. Winston has the second-most passing yards by any player through their first two seasons and the fifth-most passing touchdowns.

Much of Winston’s success came from throwing to wide receiver Mike Ev-ans, who earned his first career Pro Bowl nod after recording 96 catches for 1,321 yards and 12 touchdowns. His 12 touchdown receptions tied Evans’ own franchise record and tied for the second-most in the NFL in 2016, while his 1,321 receiving yards were the third-most in a season in team history and the fourth-most in the league last year. Evans’ 96 receptions are the second-most ever by a Buccaneer and ranked sixth in the NFL last season.

The 2016 season also saw a breakout performance from tight end Cam-eron Brate, who tied for the NFL lead in touchdown catches by a tight end, with eight, which matched the highest mark ever by a Buccaneers tight end (Jimmie Giles, 1985). Brate was second on the team in both recep-tions (57) and receiving yards (660), both of which ranked in the top 10 in Buccaneers history for tight ends.

Koetter’s first season also saw a defensive improvement, with the Buc-caneer recording 29 takeaways, the third-highest mark in the NFL and an improvement from 23 the previous season. After allowing 26.1 points per game in 2015 (26th in the league), the 2016 team allowed only 23.1 points per game (15th in the league). Tampa Bay punter Bryan Anger also had the best punting season in team history in 2016, setting franchise records for punts inside the 20 (37 – tied for the third-most in the NFL) and net punting average (42.7, the fourth-best mark in the NFL).

In his first season with Tampa Bay (2015), Koetter helped pilot one of the most successful offenses in the NFL and one of the best in team history. The team set the franchise records for total yards (6,014 – 357.0 per game), while posting the second-most rushing yards (2,162 – 135.1 per game), the then-second-most passing yards (3,852 – 240.8 per game), along with the then-fifth-most total points (342 – 21.4 per game). Tampa Bay ranked fifth in the NFL in yards per game (375.9), fifth in rushing yards per game (135.1) and second in the league in rush average (4.75). It marked the first time in franchise history that the Buccaneers have finished in the top five in total offense.

Much of Tampa Bay’s offensive success in 2015 came at the hands of rookie quarterback Jameis Winston, who accounted for 28 total touch-downs (22 passing, six rushing). Koetter also helped guide Winston to 4,042 passing yards, which were the second-most in a single season in team history and the third-most by a rookie in NFL history. Winston’s 22 passing touchdowns were tied for the fourth-most in a single season in team history and the fourth-most by a rookie in NFL history. His six rush-ing touchdowns and 28 combined touchdowns were the most in a single season by a Buccaneers quarterback, while his 28 total touchdowns were tied for the third-most by a rookie in NFL history.

Prior to Koetter’s arrival, the Buccaneers ranked 29th in rushing and tied for 29th in sacks allowed in 2014. In 2015, under Koetter’s guidance, the unit completed an impressive turnaround. Despite starting two rookies on the offensive line, Tampa Bay still managed to block for the NFL’s second-leading rusher (Doug Martin – 1,402 yards) and tied for the fourth-fewest sacks in the league. While Martin was a large part of the team’s success running the ball, he was aided by running back Charles Sims, who totaled 1,090 scrimmage yards (107 rushes for 529 yards, 51 catches for 561 yards). Sims averaged 6.9 yards per touch, the most by any player in the NFL with at least 150 touches since 2011 (Darren Sproles in 2011, 7.6 avg.). Martin and Sims’ combined 2,566 yards from scrimmage were the most by a running back duo in the NFL in 2015 and set a franchise record for backfield teammates.

Koetter also played a key role in revamping the Buccaneers’ passing game. Part of the team’s success passing the ball came from targeting top wide receiver Mike Evans, who caught 74 passes for 1,206 yards. His 1,206 yards are the seventh-most in a single season in team history and stood as the 11th-most in the league in 2015. Sims’ 561 receiving yards were the fourth-most by a running back in the NFL in 2015, while his four receiving touchdowns set a franchise record and tied for the second-most in the league by a running back.

TAMPA BAY VS. CLEVELAND 9

DIRK KOETTER

Koetter joined the Buccaneers after three seasons working as the of-fensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons (2012-14). During his three seasons with Atlanta, the team cumulatively ranked second in the NFL in completion percentage (67.4), third in third-down conversion percent-age (44.1), fourth in passing yards (277.2 per game), ninth in passing touchdowns (86), ninth in passer rating (93.9), 10th in points (24.0 per game) and 10th in total yardage (363.5 per game), while posting the second-fewest penalties (243) and penalty yards (2,043), seventh-fewest turnovers (69) and the ninth-lowest interception percentage (2.4) in the league. Koetter was part of the Falcons staff that went 13-3 in 2012 and played in the NFC Championship Game.

Under Koetter, Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan posted three of the four highest passing yardage seasons in franchise history to that point, as well as three of the five highest completion percentage seasons. In 2012, Ryan set then-franchise records and personal bests in passing yards (4,719), completion percentage (68.6) and passing touchdowns (32), while recording the second-highest passer rating mark in Falcons his-tory (99.1). Atlanta wide receivers also flourished under Koetter, with Julio Jones setting a then-franchise record and ranking third in the NFL in re-ceiving yards in 2014 with 1,593 yards. In those three seasons, the Fal-cons had a different player lead the team in receiving yards each season (Roddy White, 2012; Harry Douglas, 2013; Jones, 2014).

While Koetter was in charge of the Falcons’ offense, he coached three players to Pro Bowl appearances (Julio Jones, 2012, 2014; Tony Gonza-lez, 2012-13; Matt Ryan, 2012), with Gonzalez earning first-team All-Pro honors in 2012. In his first season with Koetter in 2012, Gonzalez set a franchise record for receiving yards by a tight end, recording 93 catches for 930 yards – the most he had recorded in either category since 2008. That same season, Jones and White combined for 2,549 receiving yards, the most by a duo in the NFL.

Prior to joining the Falcons, Koetter spent five seasons as the offensive co-ordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars (2007-11). In his five years with the Jaguars, the team cumulatively ranked third in the NFL in rushing yards (132.0 per game) and sixth in rushing average (4.41). Koetter’s Jackson-ville offenses also showed a penchant for taking care of the football, tal-lying the seventh-fewest turnovers in the league during that time.

Koetter had immediate success in Jacksonville, with his 2007 team set-ting franchise records in points (25.7 per game, sixth in the NFL) and total offense (357 yards per game, seventh in the NFL). In his first season as the starter, quarterback David Garrard ranked third in the NFL and set a franchise record in passer rating (102.2), throwing a league-low three interceptions, while leading the team to a Wild Card playoff berth and a win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. In 2008, Garrard threw for a career-best 3,620 yards and in 2010 he tossed 23 touchdowns, a career high and a franchise record.

While with the Jaguars, Koetter coached four different players to six Pro Bowl selections, including running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who earned three trips to the Pro Bowl and led the NFL in rushing in 2010 en route to earning an All-Pro selection. Koetter also helped tight end Marcedes Lewis earn a Pro Bowl berth following the 2010 season, when Lewis caught 10 touchdown passes, then tied for the most in a season in Jaguars history.

Before joining the Jaguars, Koetter spent 22 years at the collegiate level, the final six as the head coach at Arizona State (2001-06). In his six sea-sons with the Sun Devils, Koetter led the team to four bowl games, posting a 40-34 record. Working as both the head coach and offensive coordina-tor, he helped Arizona State average nearly 30 points per game over six seasons, while ranking in the top 20 in the nation in passing offense in five of his six years. In addition, five of the six Sun Devil teams during Koetter’s tenure produced a 1,000-yard receiver and quarterbacks that threw for 20 or more touchdowns in five of six seasons.

Koetter’s first head coaching opportunity came at Boise State, where he spent three seasons (1998-2000), finishing with a 26-10 record and two consecutive bowl wins. He was a two-time Big West Coach of the Year and two-time conference champion.

A native of Pocatello, Idaho, Koetter played collegiately at Idaho State (1978-81), helping his team to a Division I-AA national championship as a senior. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in physical education and earned a master’s in athletic administration a year later. After getting his master’s, he became the head coach at Highland (Idaho) High School, where he worked from 1983-84, going 19-4 and winning the 1984 state championship.

In 1985, Koetter worked as the offensive coordinator at San Francisco State and from 1986-88 was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Texas El-Paso. He then served as offensive co-ordinator/quarterbacks coach at Missouri from 1989-93 and offensive coordinator at Boston College (1994-95) and Oregon (1996-97).

Koetter, 58, and his wife, Kim, have two daughters, Kaylee and Kendra, and two sons, Derek and Davis.

HUE JACKSON

Hue Jackson was named the 16th full-time head coach in Cleveland Browns history by Owners Dee and Jimmy Haslam on January 13, 2016. He has 30 years of coaching experience, including the last 16 in the NFL.

In 2016, Jackson helped develop one of the youngest teams in NFL history. The Browns opened the 2016 season with 17 rookies on their 53-man roster, the most by an NFL team in a season opener since 2002. In his first year with

Cleveland, he helped the Browns finish second in the NFL with a 4.89 rushing average, the team’s best mark since 1966.

Prior to joining the Browns, Jackson spent the previous four seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals. During that time, he helped the Bengals to two division titles and a trip to the postseason all four years. In 2012, he served as secondary/assistant special teams coach before coaching the running backs in 2013. Jackson spent the 2014-15 as offensive coordinator.

With Jackson as coordinator in 2015, the Bengals offense finished third in the AFC in yards per play (5.7) and points per game (26.2). Quarterback Andy Dalton set a career high and franchise record with a 106.3 rating, which led the AFC and was second in the NFL. The Cincinnati running game produced two 700-yard rushers in Jeremy Hill (794) and Giovani Bernard (730) for the first time since 1988. Tight end Tyler Eifert experienced a breakout season after hauling in 13 touchdown receptions, the most by a Bengals tight end in franchise history and the most by a Cincinnati player since 2001. Wide receiver A.J. Green added 10 receiving touchdowns on 86 receptions for 1,297 yards

After spending the 2010 season as the Raiders offensive coordinator, Jackson was promoted to head coach in 2011. Oakland finished the year 8-8 and tied for first in the AFC West but missed the postseason via tiebreaker. The 8-8 mark was the best record by any Raiders team since 2002. The Raiders finished ninth in the NFL in total offense (379.5 yards per game) and seventh in rushing offense (131.9).

Before joining the Raiders, Jackson spent two seasons (2008-09) as quarterbacks coach for Baltimore, helping the Ravens advance to the playoffs both years. He was vital in the development of Joe Flacco, who was named NFL Rookie of the Year in 2008 and became the first rookie quarterback to win two playoff games as the Ravens advanced to the AFC Championship game.

From 2004-06, Jackson served as the Bengals wide receivers coach. Jackson gained his first fulltime NFL experience with Washington, where he served as the running backs coach from 2001-02, before being promoted to offensive coordinator in 2003. Under Jackson’s tutelage, Running back Stephen Davis led the NFC with 1,432 rushing yards in 2001.

Jackson spent 14 years coaching on the college level, going from a graduate assistant at Pacific all the way to offensive coordinator at Southern California. He spent four seasons (1997-2000) as USC’s offensive coordinator, where he also helped to recruit and develop players, including quarterback Carson Palmer, who went on to win the Heisman Trophy and be selected No. 1 overall in the NFL draft.

He was a minority coaching fellowship intern with the Los Angeles Rams in 1990, Arizona Cardinals in 1992 and Washington Redskins in 1995. He also served as the running backs/wide receivers/special teams coach for the London Monarchs of the World League in 1991.

Born Oct. 22, 1965, Jackson was a quarterback at Pacific from 1985-86 and threw for 2,544 yards and 19 touchdowns. The Los Angeles native also lettered in basketball and earned his degree in physical education.

A three-time Pro Bowl selection (2009, 2010, 2013) and a 2009 second-team Associated Press All-Pro selection (kick returner), Jackson’s 8,819 receiving yards are the fifth-most since he entered the league in 2008 (Calvin Johnson, Brandon Marshall, Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Johnson).
