Per FOX Sports, the Bucs ranked 21st with 320.4 ypg, 20th in passing offense (205.9 ypg), 21st in rushing offense (114.5 ypg), 17th in scoring offense (22.4 ppg), 23rd in red zone efficiency (54%) and 10th in third-down offense (41.2%) in 2024.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7c\">It will be hard for Robinson to reach that level of poor offensive play. Robinson was able to lead the Atlanta Falcons&#8217; offense to a top-15 unit in both seasons as their OC with limited weapons, but now gets the chance to have a plethora of talent at his disposal, along with one of the league&#8217;s best offensive lines when healthy.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7f\">While the statement in and of itself seems like a heavy burden, the Bucs know they can light the NFL on fire with their offense; they just have to go out there and execute at the highest level with the scheme that Robinson is able to draw up on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7i\">It&#8217;s not far-fetched, but they are strong words.
