    Really? I thought it was Kellen Winslow this week?

    it's easy to rag on Winslow, but he's very good and pretty much the Bucs main option. watch out for Sammie Stroughter though, he's their best receiver this year, and has a Davone Bess quality to him.

    They have pieces in place that can give us problems. For example who are we trotting out to compete with what might be te most aggressive secondary we play outside of the Steelers?

    Do people realize that we give up almost 70 yards a game to the tight end alone?

    Agreed. I think our pass rush will be key Sunday. I could see this game turning into the Buffalo game if we get pressure, or one of the Jets games if we don't.

    Yea, te's have been hurting us, but a good chunk of that is those te's who did the damage also had very good qb's getting them the ball. This week? We'll see what happens. If he can't reach it, he can't catch it.....

    True. The Bucs passing attack essentially is Winslow. He is their main threat inside the 30 yard line and he leads them in receptions. Antonio Bryant is ailing as well. The Bucs will look for Winslow.

    Sammie Stroughter is a slippery sucker and he will match up well with Nathan Jones should he line up inside.

    I'm honestly not discounting the Bucs, and in fact I hope we pull this one out.
    Let's face it, if they beat us, our seasons are about equal to this point.
    That should really motivate them.

    The big thing is no miscues. If we don't turn the ball over we have a good chance. Last week the Bucs had 3 picks, 1 returned for a TD and a blocked punt return for a TD, and they won by 10.

    Just eat up clock and no mistakes and we should win it.

    I don't think their secondary is going to be any more of a factor than any other game. We win games and run our offense despite our bad recievers. Everyone knows their bad, so an agressive secondary is going to make them what... .SUPER bad? big deal :lol:

    They may just pick off a pass on its way to one of those receivers though. Since we have trouble separating etc., that could be an issue. Plus they know we can't catch - so they have as good a chance as us to catch it. :lol:

    I've never bought Dolphin Tickets before - are there any discounted tkts for Sunday's game - It's my son's birthday - we're not fussy about where we sit.
