Browns verses Buccaneers

Vegas Line: Cleveland +7  Over/Under: 36.5

What to expect from Buccaneers?

After watching the Ravens dominating the Browns with their running game and strong defense...well expect the same thing from the Buc's! The Buc's offense as a better passing game and a much stronger defensive line.

What the Browns defense must do!

Stop the run and get some presure and sacks on Tampa Bays QB Johnson! They need to change their defensive schemes and bring the linebacker up near the line of scrimmage!

What the Browns offense must do!

Protect Tim Couch and take out the players who are not producing...Morgan, Green! Come on coaching staff get a better game plan and if something isn't working drop it quickly.

Season record on game picks: 4-1
What do I think?

This is a gut feeling I have and from watching Tim Couch the last four years. Couch will come out with a chip on his shoulder to prove something too some certain Browns fans that cheered when he went down with a concussion! Now if only the rest of the Browns team comes out the same way? Take the Browns with the points!

Some after game thoughts:

I thought the Browns would have a close game with one of the best teams in the NFL after what happened the week before against the Ravens? Boy was I wrong on that! The Buc's beat the Browns silly even thou the score doesn't reflect it!
