Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs St. Louis Rams

The Buccaneers and Rams will play each other on Thursday, Dec. 17 at 8:25 p.m. EST on the NFL Network.

Where They Stand: With three games to go, the 6-7 Tampa Bay Bucs are tied with four other teams for the sixth-best record in the NFC, however they are two games behind Seattle and Minnesota in the wild card race.

The Philadelphia defense has coughed up 161.5 rushing yards per game over the last four weeks.

That’s a play straight out of his days at West Virginia, which is where he garnered so much attention for himself in the first place.

Jeff Fisher maintains it’s just another game. But it is to say that this will be the type of meat and potatoes game that will probably see both teams trying to slug their way to the finish line. The Rams have proven this season that they struggle to get the ball into the end zone when it counts, specifically due to their quarterback. With the way the Rams’ corners have been playing lately, that plays into the home team’s hands.

Tailgating was down with the 12th consecutive non-winning season and temperatures in the high 30s, although it didn’t stop Shamus McDonough’s family, who have set up shop nearby at Laclede’s Landing every game since the Rams came to St. Louis in 1995.

In an impressive performance, which have been few and far between this season, the Rams jumped on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers early and hung on to beat them 31-23.

The Buccaneers (6-7) still have hopes of reaching the playoffs, but that possibility was damaged after a home loss to New Orleans Sunday. While filling in for the injured Peyton Manning, Brock Osweiler has thrown for 1,140 yards in five games, but has only thrown five touchdowns to three interceptions. Now with Foles on the bench for the foreseeable future, the Rams have gone back to basics and kickstarted their team by relying on their talented rookie tailback, Todd Gurley, and the ground game. “I wanted to try and help a team win and I’m thankful the Rams gave me the opportunity”.

The Buccaneers have been good against the run, allowing only 94 yards per game.

I have notched up zero hours in terms of coaching in the National Football League but even to me it seems clear that if Tampa Bay can slow down the former Georgia standout then that will go a long way to helping post a vital victory. Gurley gashed the Lions defense for over a hundred yards and two touchdowns, while the defense kept the pressure on Matt Stafford all day.
