 Tampa Bay vs. Pittsburgh
Up to the minute news about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from GoTeamsGo. We'll find the latest Tampa Bay Buccaneers news so you can chat about here. Quote: Buccaneers-Steelers Preview
Gainesville Sun, FL - 14 hours ago
Tampa Bay (3-8 ) endured another poor offensive performance in a 38-10 loss at Dallas on Thanksgiving, its fourth defeat in five games.
After opening the game with an 80-yard touchdown drive, the Buccaneers crossed midfield only once more and finished with 211 total yards.
Tampa Bay has scored 47 points in compiling an 0-5 road record. It's averaging 12.9 points per game overall, with only Oakland, at 12.0, averaging fewer.
With games left against Chicago, Atlanta and Seattle, the Bucs could be headed for their worst season since they finished 3-13 in 1991.
``Just stay positive and keep fighting,'' running back Cadillac Williams said. ``Coach (Jon) Gruden says, 'These are the trying times.' Everybody goes through them. What are you going to do in these bad times? As young players, and (all) the players on this team, we've just got to keep fighting.''
The Steelers are 5-1 against the Buccaneers, including a 17-7 victory in the most recent meeting Dec. 23, 2002. This is only Tampa Bay's second visit to Pittsburgh, the first since 1983.
