Tampa Bay Buccaneers Need a License to Chill

Today the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are sweating in humid, 80-degree temps out there on the practice field, wearing pads, hoping to find their "physicality" for head coach Raheem Morris.

More of the same tomorrow. Nice and hot, warm, humid.

Come Sunday, they'll need a License To Chill.

Don't look now, folks, but it's going to be 38 chilly degrees at Lambeau Field with the wind possibly getting up to 12 mph. That's par for the course up in 'Sconsin this time of year, but it may send the Raheem Ruffians looking for their cold-weather gear.

Don't know about you, but if Josh Freeman shows up wearing a pair of gloves, well, that's gotta be the kiss of death. No one has made much of it, but Freeman's had an obvious problem with his passes. Here's a guy who typically throws nice, tight spirals but the past few weeks there have been more than a few wobblers.

Hate to bring it up again, but the last thing you want to see is your starting quarterback out there with the thumb on his throwing hand taped up.

Throw in some cold weather on an iffy digit and you've got some more problems.

Cold weather used to be a huge problem for previous Buccaneer regimes, but now with the NFC NASCAR division, it's simply not a worry anymore.

Sunday it could be.

The tundra at Lambeau won't be frozen, but it will be a really, really chilly November afternoon.

It's Packer weather, plain and simple.

Detailed forecast: a lot of Aaron Rodgers, Lambeau leaps, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers looking for their sideline heaters.
