It’s pretty clear what the Tampa Bay Bucs’ biggest red flag is heading into the 2017 regular season.
When you can’t even successfully convert extra-point attempts, you’re leaving points on the board — let alone field goals, which are kicked from farther back.
The Bucs cut former second-round pick Roberto Aguayo after the team’s first preseason game, when he missed both an extra point and a field goal. They replaced him with Nick Folk, but things haven’t gotten any better.
Tampa Bay marched down the field and scored a touchdown in the first quarter of Thursday night’s preseason game against Jacksonville, unfortunately, the special teams unit couldn’t finish the job after that.
Folk had his kick blocked, and here’s what it looked like.

Sure, the line deserves some of the blame, but the kick was pretty low as well.
