1. The Bucs run the ball pretty well and did so against Seattle, but they are still down Martin. The front 7 is going to have to come to play and Wheeler could be a liability once again.

2. Glennon and the passing game doesn't scare me at all. Vincent Jackson has been basically absent this season and the Bucs lack any threat at the TE position.

3. The strength of the bucs is there defense and it is very good, but their weakest area (outside of McCoy) is the defensive line. There is little pass rush and the DE are average at best. The LB's (especially Levonte David) are good, but are small quick guys who can run sideline to side line. The DB group is one of the best in the NFL, but Revis is not the Revis of old and the other CB is very mediocre.

This game does worry me as the Bucs have plenty of talent and if they had solid QB play would be in the mix in the NFC South. Don't let the 0-8 fool you....the Bucs took both the Saints and Seattle down to the end of the game and have the talent to play with the Phins.
 
A thread talking about football.... Thank you.

I think we should come out on top with this game. As long as they don't get to Tannehill early and often, we should be fine. In fact, our OL looked better vs Cincy.
 
I think this will actually be a good game. The Bucs will be licking their chops with the current Dolphins situation, and want their first win. They almost pulled it off against the Seahawks and I think they believe they're close. The Dolphins will try and overcome this whole fiasco and prove that they can win through all the adversity. I still think the Dolphins win, let's not get crazy

Bucs only have 17 sacks on the years and Levonte David has 5 of them.......they are not good at getting to the QB...the DE's are particularly mediocre...
 
Vincent Jackson makes two plays and we can easily lose this football game.

We just can't put enough points on the board.

Glennon doesn't have the arm...the only thing I would worry about is their run game...
 
If we play pass happy ball we will lose. A mix like last week we will win.
We are better than the bucs, but we still have to prove it. I think it's a coming out party for Miami
 
I'm not overly optimistic about beating anyone with the way we've played the last 5 weeks. They gave Seattle all they could handle until they pulled a "Miami" in the second half.

If this team can rally together.. they have a shot. I thought last week was to define this season. Now after a weekend of absolutely travesty and embarrassment, I believe this may be a tipping point. Lose this game and I think things will get as ugly as they come.

Jackson is one of the 3 or 4 best wide receivers in the NFL. It's a shame he is stuck on the Bucs because he really is that good. He has the speed, the strong body, the hands, good route runner, he has it all.

Also, with his size, he matches up very well against Brent Grimes. Glennon may not be a good QB, but that matchup definitely scares me.

Jackson is not even close to a top 3 WR. Probably top 15. But I would put Calvin, dez, Marshall, aj green, julio jones, and demaryius easily above him. And then you could make the case for fitz and smith above him.

He is indeed a match-up nightmare, but they have no one else that even poses a threat especially with Mike Williams out. I live in the Tampa area and several radio stations have (jokingly) asked for anyone to call in if they can find Jackson...

Vicent Jackson has been a non-factor the last few weeks
