They've alternated each game. What was most troubling to coaches was the failure to pick up a blitz. 1st down is one thing. Not protecting the GOAT far far worse. Report: Leonard Fournette is expected to get the start for the Buccaneers today profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/09/26/rep…

Game News
The Los Angeles Rams are back home in Week 3 after beating the Indianapolis Colts on the road last week, but their next opponent will be their toughest yet. They’ll host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are also 2-0, on Sunday afternoon at SoFi Stadium.
Sean McVay and Rams players have downplayed the notion that this will be a measuring stick game for them, but a win over the defending champions will further establish Los Angeles as one of the three or four best teams in the league.
It’s just that getting a win against the Bucs is easier said than done. The Rams are understandably underdogs, even though they’re at home. Tom Brady leads the league in touchdown passes with nine and Tampa Bay’s run defense looks just as good as it did last season when it ranked first
I liked the jet sweep with Chris Godwin. Typically if a wide receiver has been in the backfield, it's been Antonio Brown.
Bucs TE Rob Gronkowski out of the medical tent and headed for the locker room as his teammates finish off a TD drive. Gronk took a huge hit to the side from Rams OLB Terrell Lewis.
Ryan Succop way right on a 55-yard field goal, so it's halftime in Los Angeles, Rams up 14-7 on Bucs.
Bruce Arians says the Bucs needed the pass rush to get home to help a depleted secondary and it never happened.
CB Jamel Dean is out for the remainder of the game (knee). pic.twitter.com/n3zzUmkFIm
Brady to Mike Evans for a first down to the 40.
We had wondered who would step up at receiver with Antonio Brown sidelined today for the Bucs' offense: Tyler Johnson: 3 catches, 63 yards Scotty Miller: 2 catches, 11 yards Jaelon Darden: 1 catch, 0 yards
Tough day for Bucs corner Ross Cockrell, said secondary has to communicate better and make plays on third down. He's wearing an Olympic team hat to support his sister Anna, who made the finals as a hurdler. pic.twitter.com/Lh0hKvVwWb
Rookie WR Jaelon Darden is active for a regular-season game for the first time in his NFL career and could factor into the return game today. Also, second-year RB Ke'Shawn Vaughn is active for the first time this season.
Third and 7, and Brady converts on a screen to Giovani Bernard. That's what they brought him in for ...
So Bucs running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn is active for the first time this season, will work on special teams and perhaps a cameo on offense. Practice-squad callups Rashard Robinson and Deon Yelder can make their Bucs debuts today.
Two big catches for Tyler Johnson on this drive -- 23 yards and now 31 to the 8-yard line.
Now a 15-yard punt by Bradley Pinion and the wheels are off for the Bucs. Rams are now teeing off on Brady. This one is about over.
DeSean Jackson again, wide open on third down. Carlton Davis chasing him on a 42-yard gain. First and goal for Rams.
#Bucs getting to Matt Stafford early – Devin White and Joe Tryon-Shoyinka both with pressures on the Rams' opening drive.
Lavonte David: "They just made more fun lays than we did." Says there were a few times the defense should have been able to get off the field.
Great job by Vita Vea to disrupt the run play and it's finished by Shaq Barrett, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Ross Cockrell. That's the two-minute warning with the game still tied 7-7. #Rams will have a third and short up next. #Bucs
Bucs now say Jamel Dean is out the rest of the game with his knee injury. Big test for Dee Delaney.
Injury Update: CB Jamel Dean is OUT for the remainder of today’s game (knee). https://t.co/CU6cKOaMlX

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have to finish Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams without yet another starting cornerback.
Jamel Dean left the game in the first half with a knee injury, and has now been ruled out for the rest of the game.
The Bucs are already without Sean Murphy-Bunting due to injury, so Dean’s absence will leave Tampa Bay’s defensive backfield even more short-handed against a talented passing attack
Scotty Miller false start, so now third and 20.
Buccaneers Inactives 9/26/21:
#2 QB Kyle Trask#60 G Nick Leverett#85 WR Jaydon Mickens#90 OLB Jason Pierre-Paul#94 DL Khalil Davis
Elevated from Practice Squad (Contagious Disease Replacements):#28 CB Rashard Robinson#82 TE Deon Yelder

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released their list of inactive players for Sunday’s Week 3 road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, and there are some key contributors listed
Rib injury

FF Today's Take: Jake Funk and Sony Michel should handle the majority of running back touches for the Rams today against the Buccaneers. Game plans don't typically call for running against the Bucs so Michel's upside is probably capped at an RB2 level in Week 3.
Matthew Stafford vs the Bucs: ðŸ 27/38 ðŸ 343 yards ðŸ 4 TDs ðŸ 134.0 passer rating pic.twitter.com/g4bCNY5Bd1
Cooper Kupp receiving TD in 2020: 3 Cooper Kupp receiving TD in two-plus games in 2021: 5
they called that OPI and didn't call Robert Woods blocking two defenders in the end zone lmao
Matthew Stafford got off to a slow start against the Buccaneers on Sunday, completing just one of his first six passes. However, once he settled down and found a rhythm, he began to look like the sharp quarterback we saw in the first two games of the season.
Stafford completed 14 of his next 16 passes to close out the first half, tossing two touchdown passes to Tyler Higbee and Cooper Kupp before halftime. The first was a screen pass to Higbee, the third such play to the stud tight end of that drive.
It gave the Rams a 7-0 lead over Tampa Bay with 12:22 left in the second quarter, capping off a phenomenal 14-play, 95-yard drive by Los Angeles

Rams are 10 of 13 on third down today, with that latest completion to Van Jefferson.
After all of that, Aaron Donald is credited with his first sack against Brady.
You guys just trust me on this one: When Kenny Young's press conference video gets posted, go watch the whole thing. By the time he was done talking, you could have heard a pin drop to the carpet on the other side of the press room.
DeSean Jackson's ability to consistently get behind the defense at his age is remarkable.
Cool note about Jalen Ramsey's game day attire: He told the team he is a huge fan of the Mariachi Rams after hearing them play at his first few games with the team back in 2019. He had the idea for the custom-designed look to pay homage to them today.
Injury update: LB Justin Hollins (pec) out for the game.
Gronkowski caught a 6-yard gain but backed into Terrell Lewis and took a hit to the side/lower back. Took a minute but he's walking off on his own.
Jake Funk gets the first carry at RB here today.
Hard not to like the sense of urgency and aggressiveness that David Long plays with. Just registered a TFL. Loss of 7 yds on the play.
Bucs get the first but Brady sacked by Leonard Floyd on the next play.
Henderson did not practice this week and the Rams elevated practice squad RB Buddy Howell yesterday. twitter.com/adamschefter/s…
Raheem Morris is doing a heck of a job for the Rams today.
Heck of a scramble by Burrow. Looked dead to rights. But all for not, holding on Jonah Williams.
Andrew Whitworth and Austin Corbett recovered that Higbee fumble. Prior to the fumble, thought Higbee did a nice job of setting his defender up to think he had a path right to Stafford (instead of leaving the dump-off wide open).
The Los Angeles Rams will officially be without Darrell Henderson Jr. against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Henderson entered this game listed as questionable, and he is among the Rams’ inactive players for Week 3.
Henderson left last week’s game with a rib injury and was unable to return. He did not practice at all this week, which was an indication that he would be held out of the game.
JuJu Hughes, Bryce Perkins, Alaric Jackson, J.R. Reed, Brycen Hopkins and Bobby Brown III are all inactive as healthy scratches, too
