Buccaneers HC Koetter: 'We find too many ways to lose a game'

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Dirk Koetter ripped into both his own and his team's performance following a 37-32 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Koetter, who was promoted from offensive coordinator to head coach in January after Lovie Smith was fired, said the Bucs are missing an unidentified element imperative to winning.

"I feel like sometimes we find too many ways to lose a game instead of creating ways to win a game," Koetter told ESPN's Jenna Laine. "Until we change that, we’re going to have nights like (Sunday). We’re just missing something, I feel like - and as my title suggests, it’s my job to speak up."

Koetter suggested that his team isn't on the same page after losing two consecutive games.

"The best teams that I’ve been on beat with one heart and they count on the guy next to them to do their job every time and they win and lose together," Koetter said. "And maybe our fans have cheered for a team like that at one point; hopefully all of our players have played on a team (like that). I know when I’ve been on teams like that, you can feel it and, man, you want to grab it and hold onto its tail because it’s elusive."

The Buccaneers host the defending Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos on Sunday.
