A massive turnover of personnel occurred, which included the offseason career-ending injury of Lee Roy Selmon, the trade of Hugh Green, and the early-season signing of Steve Young. The numerous roster changes produced a team which, while talented, struggled in their new system. Mistake-prone play combined with a difficult early-season schedule helped the team to lose their first nine games, which eliminated them from title contention before the end of October.〔Flanagan, Mike.

Rookie kicker Donald Igwebuike set team records for field goals and points scored.〔Flanagan, Mike. "Time has come to hand out awards to deserving Bucs".
