Huggins, Winslow Decisions Coming Soon
September 19th, 2010
Can the Bucs win without Kellen Winslow?
Joe surely doesn’t want to find out.
Winslow and his messed up knee, which has been under the knife several times and kept him out of a lot of practice this week, made the trip to Carolina for today’s game, reports Woody Cummings, of The Tampa Tribune.
But the Bucs will make the official call on his availability just before kickoff.
Kareem Huggins is in the same boat with a groin injury. Joe’s not too concerned about Huggins. While he might have gotten some carries, he doesn’t represent a key to victory.
All other Bucs made the trip to Carolina except for LB Niko Koutouvides, who stayed home with an ankle injury.

I don’t know if Winslow will really be needed for this game. Now before any of you go bat s*#t crazy on me, hear out my reasoning. We have some very good outside receivers as shown from last weeks game. In order to win this game we will need to get out running game going. Winslow is the weakest of our blocking Tight Ends. Stevens is a well rounded TE and Gilmore is our blocking TE who can catch. Throw Purvis in the mix and we are not that bad off.
I would love to have Winslow on the field but he is a liability for us in the running game.

Well if we don’t see Huggy we’re probably going to see the new guy with a name that sounds like Greg but is spelled like Keg. Lets see what he can do.
