Basisphilosophie » Koetter kicked things up a notch in training camp

There was a lot of criticism slung at head coach Dirk Koetter last year during a disappointing season. One of the topics was how “soft” his training camp practices were. Yes http://www.tampabaybuccaneersteamonline.com/vinny-curry-jersey , Koetter was on record as saying their goal was to escape training camp without injury, but once the season ramped up so did the injuries - and the Buccaneers looked as if their level of physicality wasn’t anywhere near their opponents.Fast forward to 2018 and a team that - on paper - is even better than the team so many had pegged for the postseason. And from the sounds of things, they are going to be better prepared, too.Tackle Demar Dotson spoke to the media and gave his take on the big difference in this year’s camp compared to previous seasons;This team needed that kind of grind, that kind of physicality headed into the season. After a team that believed they were going to coast to success last year http://www.tampabaybuccaneersteamonline.com/lavonte-david-jersey , they needed the challenge of putting in the work - harder work than they’ve put in in a long time - to go out and earn their spot.They have the talent to do it. It’s just a matter of finally playing up to that level of talent. For Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans who have been following the plethora of team focused podcasts out in the world, picking your favorites is hard to do.In the pool of content creators there are long-time media members, fringe media, former players, and fans of the team simply looking to get their thoughts out there for everyone to hear.One such podcast is The PewterCast http://www.tampabaybuccaneersteamonline.com/kwon-alexander-jersey , hosted and created by Brent Allen. Two years ago he brought on current co-host Ren Daxt, and the show has only expanded into more content and improved technology ever since.Every year for the last three seasons, Brent and Ren have been holding their annual awards ceremony where the nominees are determined by a secret panel spanning all levels of influence, and the winners are determined by the fans themselves.Of the awards, Brent had this to say http://www.tampabaybuccaneersteamonline.com/vernon-hargreaves-iii-jersey ,You may have noticed recently that SB Nation has decided to get into the podcasting world, and Bucs Nation has been represented strongly by several members on the staff beginning this endeavor. However, none of those were around long enough to garner a nomination.One show that did earn a nomination and subsequently a win in the ‘Podcast of the Year’ category was the Locked on Bucs podcast hosted by Bucs Nation staff members, James Yarcho and David Harrison.This was the show’s first ‘Pewtie’ and second-year being nominated in the category.James and David have been with Locked on Bucs since the middle of the 2017 season, and continue to churn out relevant content with four episodes per week during the off-season and five in-season.No doubt Womens Gerald McCoy Jersey , helping along the way are the regular appearances by Carmen Vitali of Buccaneers.com and players like Chris Godwin and O.J. Howard.The best part of the show according to the two hosts however, are the voicemails submitted by listeners giving their thoughts on the shows content and asking the questions ever Bucs fan wants to know the answers to.Both were humbled by the win, and agree with Brent that while the trophy is cool, the fact it was the listeners themselves who decided it, is the real prize.Check out all of their work on the Locked on Podcast network Womens Donovan Smith Jersey , and we look forward to seeing our resident Bucs Nation podcasts on the nomination list in 2020!Other categories included the traditional slate of team awards, but also more media focused ones for fans’ favorite guest of The PewterCast during 2018.If you didn’t catch The PewterCast Awards, you can download it or watch it on YouTube, now.
