Two of the more disappointing teams in the NFL will face off on Sunday when the St. Louis Rams head to Florida to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both teams enter Sunday's penultimate game of the season with six wins, St. Louis having one fewer loss only because of a rare tie on their record.
Tampa Bay has dropped four games in a row, with its most recent defeat coming 41-0 at the hands of the Saints. The Rams are only on a single-game losing streak at the moment, but have actually won three of their last four games with victories over the Bills and 49ers.
The running game will provide sparks in the matchup between rookie Doug Martin, who is currently third in the NFL with 1,647 yards from scrimmage, and perennial star Steven Jackson, who missed practice this week but is still expected to get the start for St. Louis.
