NFL Week 9 Notes
Monday, November 9th, 2009These are stories from around the league that I thought were worth noting. No Browns update this week. Thankfully, they weren’t playing.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers came into this week’s game against Green Bay as the league’s only remaining winless team (0-7). Desperate times call for desperate measures. So the Bucs made a bold move to try to turn things around.
Old school uniforms.
Call me crazy, but I like the retro uniforms we’ve seen this year. Even the creamsicle jerseys.
Rookie quarterback Josh Freeman, in his first career start, led the Bucs to a 38-28 win over the Packers. He threw for 205 yards and 3 touchdowns. The win was also the first for 33 year old head coach Raheem Morris.
The loss drops Green Bay to 4-4, making their playoff chances much more difficult. They still have Dallas, Baltimore, Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Arizona remaining on their schedule.
