The Bucs did not have many bright spots last season, but one of them was the play of rookie Qb Jameis Winston whom continued to improve as the season went on. Winston went on to throw for over 4,000 yards plus 28 total touchdowns verses 15 interceptions and 2 fumbles lost. That's pretty good considering he was rookie plus having two rookie offensive lineman and not having an consistent receiving options throughout the season. Now everything wasn't perfect as Jameis must still improve in all areas, but one area that needs work is his vision in scanning the field. Lets take a look at Jameis's first interception which happened to be his first throw of his career.
Jameis failed to see number 24 and thought his out route was going to be wide open, unfortunately it ended in a pick 6. If Jameis can see that he needs to step up here and hit the checkdown to Martin its a easy first down, hopefully these kind of plays can be avoided in 2016. Jameis should improve in this area due to experience and having a better understanding of defenses. Getting the feel for the speed of the game should help Jameis slow down the game more and we saw that last year in the middle of the season where Jameis played his best football. No one works harder than Jameis, so I would expect him to display better awareness and vision when throwing the football this year, limiting the dumb interceptions.
With better vision, it should allow Jameis to be more accurate as well which will help get his completion percentage up over 60 percent. So when watching preseason, these are things to look for from Jameis in that he is showing better vision and hitting the open man. Now Jameis won't be perfect in his second year as there will be mistakes but with the amount of work he puts in, I expect we will see less errors in 2016.
