Uncover the Untold Stories Behind Every NFL Franchise’s Greatest Team — You’ll Never Guess Which Season Tops Them All!
2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (12.0)
Tampa Bayâs first season in the NFC South was one to remember. After falling short in three straight playoff appearances in their final three seasons in the NFC Central, the Buccaneers went 12-4 and finally got past the Eagles 27-10 in the conference championship game after losing to Philadelphia by a combined 52-12 margin the previous two postseasons. 2002 was Jon Grudenâs first season in Tampa after taking over for Tony Dungy, but Dungyâs defensive influence remained. So did Derrick Brooks, Ronde Barber, John Lynch, Warren Sapp and Co., which held opponents to 10 points or less 11 times and ranks No. 1 in D-TRACR since 1991.
