Yahoo Sports NFL on Bucky Irving
From the article
The revival of Bucky Irving has been one of my favorite developments of the season. As a rookie, Irving was a revelation as an explosive screen-receiver and power runner. He slipped last year due to injuries but is all the way back this year. Irving is the engine of the Tampa Bay offense.
STACKED’s take
Irving's explosive return and the Bucs' run-heavy game script position him for sustained production.
Irving's revival has been one of the source's favorite developments of the season. As a rookie, he was an explosive screen-receiver and power runner; he slipped last year due to injuries but is all the way back this year. Irving is the engine of the Tampa Bay offense. The Bucs rank dead last in EPA per dropback but 13th as a rush unit—a 19-point gap, the third-largest in favor of the run game among all NFL offenses. Over the last month, Tampa Bay has leaned into more gap-scheme runs, Irving's specialty, and still leads the NFL in yards per carry on zone runs by running backs. With an elite defense and Baker Mayfield still struggling, the Bucs should run heavy ground-and-pound game scripts going forward.
