Dashon Goldson is losing his starting job. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers gave backup safety Bradley McDougald nearly 50% of the defensive snaps, while Goldson played just 70% -- the difference being the packages where the Bucs had three safeties on the field. And McDougald held up reasonably well -- I certainly didn't see him repeatedly exploited in coverage the way Mason Foster was.
Similarly, Michael Johnson continues to lose ground to the likes of Jacquies Smith, Larry English and T.J. Fatinikun. The Bucs are basically punishing under-performers by giving their backups more playing time.
For the first time since week four, Garrett Gilkey didn't get any snaps. Perhaps the Bucs finally came to the obvious conclusions that rotating your right guard is not a good way to build an offensive line that can actually function and communicate comfortably.
Of course, the Bucs now switched to rotating Kevin Pamphile and Oniel Cousins at left tackle. At least that should disappear once Anthony Collins returns from his injury, although it should be said that Cousins and Pamphile seemed to handle themselves reasonably well.
