The Bucs defensive tackle said his talents weren't best-suited for Jim Bates' scheme and that he welcomes a chance to better utilize his speed and his ability to shoot the gaps. "There's a reason why they call it Tampa 2. Let's not kid ourselves,'' Hovan said. "Everyone has tried to copy it, scheme, try to mis-manage it their own way. Am I more comfortable? Yes. I'm not a two-gapper. I'm never going to be a two-gapper. I can gap and a half. My abilities are to run, penetrate and create at the line of scrimmage. With that being said, some of the guys are comfortable. But at the same time, we've got to go out there and just run the defense that is called.'' On Monday, coach Raheem Morris decided to relieve Bates, the Bucs defensive coordinator, of his play-calling duties and will take over the defense.

Favorite Teams:

We don't have the personnel to play the Tampa 2. We were in the Tampa 2 all day last Sunday against the Saints.....38-7.
