10 News Sports Anchor Dave Wirth previews Sunday's Rams/Bucs game for JoeBucsFan.com

Hello there, Joe Bucs Fan...

I found it very odd this week, that the question was posed... In Week 2..."Is this a must win for the Bucs?"...

That's ridiculous for the second week of the season... Lovie Smith agreed... Then said... "but we have to win"...

And that's where the Bucs stand heading into the Rams' game... Opening 0-2, at home, would be close to a disaster... And would almost erase all the good will established by Lovie...

So, for the Bucs to get something positive going this week, here's what they have to do...

Better line play, on both sides...

Offensive line has to give Josh McCown some time... And open some holes for the run game... They had little last week... A return by Logan Mankins is necessary...

And the front four has to get some kind of pass rush, especially the ends... Like Lovie said, they have to win those 1 on 1 battles... What might help, the Rams could be on their 3rd quarterback of the year on Sunday...

And it's Derrick Brooks day... Ring of Honor... Retire his number... And they hand out bobbleheads... What a day...

Catch my sports at 6 and 11 on 10 News... I'm DW... I'll see you at the game...
