From the Denver 2007 Media guide...

Some of the same stuff... with some additonal material..

1996: Lynch, by the third game of the season, moved into the starting lineup for Tampa Bay when he replaced

Todd Scott after he suffered a season-ending injury. He made the most of his opportunity by leading all

Buccaneers defensive backs in tackles with 103 (74 solo) while matching a personal best with three interceptions (set in 1995) in 16 games played (14 starts). He added a sack (5 yds.), four tackles-for-losses, one forced

fumble, one fumble recovery and nine passes defensed along the way. Lynch made his first start of the season at Den. (9/15) and turned in five tackles. Against Sea. (9/22), he dashed 40 yards on a direct-snap fake

punt that set up a touchdown. Lynch recorded his first career sack and added five solo tackles at Ari. (10/20)

before posting an interception to go along with three passes defensed at G.B. (10/27). At S.D. (11/17), he set

up the Buccaneers’ game-winning touchdown by posting his second interception of the season and returning

it 25 yards. Lynch was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week after being credited with five tackles, an interception, one pass defensed, a fumble recovery and a forced fumble in Tampa Bay’s victory vs. N.O. (11/24).

1995: Lynch, despite being slowed by various injuries, still enjoyed a solid season and appeared in nine

games (6 starts) for Tampa Bay at strong safety to rank ninth on team with 47 tackles (37 solo) and second

with three interceptions (3 yds.). He was placed on injured reserve Dec. 12 with a torn posterior cruciate ligament that forced him to miss the club’s final two games. In a win vs. Cin. (10/8), he made his first career

interception off a Jeff Blake pass, and the takeaway set up the game-tying field goal. Lynch had his finest game

of the season in a 20-17 overtime victory vs. Min. (10/15), recording 11 tackles and two interceptions. He reinjured a knee vs. G.B. (11/26), suffering a torn posterior cruciate ligament, and was placed on injured reserve

Dec. 12. He missed the final two games of the season.

1994: Lynch played all 16 regular-season games (0 starts) as a reserve safety and special teamer for Tampa

Bay, ending the year with 15 tackles (11 solo) while ranking second on the team with eight special-teams

stops. He posted a season-best four solo tackles and a special-teams stop at Det. (11/13), and he returned a

blocked field goal 27 yards to set up the game-winning score vs. the L.A. Rams (12/11).

1993: Selected by Tampa Bay in the third round (82nd overall) of the 1993 NFL Draft, Lynch played 15 games

(4 starts) during his first professional season. He finished with 13 tackles on defense, two passes defensed

and a forced fumble while adding six stops on special teams. In his first NFL game vs. K.C. (9/5), Lynch had

two tackles. In the Bucs’ 27-10 triumph vs. Det. (10/3), he started as an extra linebacker and notched four

tackles and pair of pass breakups. Lynch started back-to-back games at strong safety vs. S.F. (11/14) and vs.

Min. (11/21), posting a season-best seven tackles against the 49ers.

Looks as if they started in a Nickle/4-2-5 in that Detroit game

In trying to find his 4th start, I saw some 3-3-5 formations..

Week 1, was I guess them starting in a dime.

Floyd Peters appears to be the DC during that 1993 season. I've never heard of him.
