Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Miami Dolphins Preview: If there was any city in the NFL the Bucs would want their young QB to get his first road start in the league—it's Miami. They're considered among the most apathetic in the league.
In addition, after having two weeks to prepare for his debut against the Green Bay Packers, Freeman now has to show what he can learn in just half the preparation time.
For Tampa Bay, this is perhaps the biggest game of the season. The Bucs got one on the Green Bay Packers, but if they can sustain the momentum and beat a team that isn't a juggernaut on the road it could go a long way to giving this team the confidence it desperately needs and begin the turn around of the franchise in earnest.
It's big for the Dolphins too, despite a 3-5 start, the Fins still hold some hope of a rebound and late playoff run. Considering the Patriots missed the AFC playoffs despite finishing 11-5 last year, such talk seems ridiculous at this point.
A loss to the Bucs would all but end their playoff hopes for 2009.
