No football team likes to have weaknesses, but not every position can be a team strength. But the reality is that every position has a weak link if one travels down the depth chart far enough. The Bucs are no exception.

Despite fielding a team that still has nine players that have made at least one Pro Bowl, the defending NFC South champions do have weak links at every position – some even in the starting ranks. Some of these weak spots can be turned into team strengths with more experience and development. And some weaknesses can be erased simply due to better play or deployment by the coaches.

Pewter Report’s Scott Reynolds looks at the Bucs’ weak links over the next two days in two articles – offense on Monday and defense on Tuesday. Let’s start with Tampa Bay’s offense.

Bucs’ Weak Links On Offense

Quarterback – Kyle Trask

Experience is the greatest teacher, and the problem for third-year quarterback Kyle Trask is that he has spent too much time in the classroom. Outside of a handful of preseason appearances in his first two years in Tampa Bay, Trask has only appeared in one regular season game. That came in the fourth quarter of a Week 18 loss to Atlanta where Trask completed just 3-of-9 passes for 23 yards.
