Dirk Koetter

Dirk Koetter was named the 11th head coach in franchise history on January 15, 2016, after serving as offensive coordinator 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 conversion rate (42.8 pct.) and totaling the sixth-most first downs (676) during that time frame. 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 franchise 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 (sixthmost in team history) and 37 touchdowns (ninth-most) in 2015, the Buccaneers increased those numbers in 2016, scoring 354 points (fourth-most) and 41 touchdowns (third-most).
