More Defensive Line Changes
Defensive linemen who are looking to get the most out of their medical insurance should think about joining the Buccaneers. There’s a good 75% chance you’ll end up on injured reserve. Tim Crowder, E.J. Wilson, George Johnson, Gerald McCoy and now John McCargo are all sitting out the rest of the season in hot tubs getting rubdowns, a far better fate than the healthy players...

REAR ENTRIES: Tennessee Fallout
PRICE SPRAINED ANKLE: Brian Price left the game in the first half with what it turns out is a sprained ankle. Roy Miller or John McCargo could play nose, but how much do you want to bet that if Price’s ankle keeps him out of next week’s game that the Bucs bring back Frank Okam? The defensive linemen just need to punch a time clock. Seems like that would be easier.

REAR ENTRIES: Losing Makes For Easy Writing
POOR JOHN MCCARGO: Back in the summer, I was kind of making fun of John McCargo because he was generally considered a first-round bust for Buffalo. But he’s been cut and re-signed so many times that he has become a sympathetic character on this team. The latest one happened yesterday when George Johnson was put on IR and the Bucs turned to McCargo to fill the spot. Maybe he...
