4. Vita Vea for the Pro Bowl!

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers let six-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Gerald McCoy go in the offseason. Part of the reason was because the Bucs believed they had something special in Vea, a first-round pick last year. Tampa Bay’s personnel decisions often have been badly wrong. But the Bucs were right on this one. Vea has been a force against the run all season and that’s a big part of why the Bucs entered Sunday’s game against Atlanta ranked No. 1 in run defense. But Vea took his game to a new level against the Falcons. He had a crucial sack and also lined up at fullback and caught a touchdown pass.
