Five Tampa Bay Buccaneers Who Could Cause Trouble for the St. Louis Rams Sunday

While Cordarrelle Patterson is a great young player that could find himself among the league’s elite receivers rather soon, it’s difficult to say that any of the Vikings receivers that the Rams faced in Week 1 are as good as Bucs wideout Vincent Jackson. The Rams will presumably be letting rookie E.J. Gaines take the bulk of the reps against rookie receiver Mike Evans, who he shut down in college last year, and that means that Janoris Jenkins will spend a lot of time covering Jackson. It’s extremely important that Jenkins, who struggled once again versus the Vikings, returns to form and prevents St. Louis from getting burned by Jackson, who happens to be seven inches taller and more than 30 pounds bigger than both Gaines and Jenkins.
