In what was one of the most even games this week, the St. Louis Rams pulled off their first (and much needed) win of the season. Many were surprised that the Rams pulled out a victory, with Shaun Hill injured, second year undrafted QB Austin Davis got his first start of the season. While he didn't have any touchdowns, Davis threw for over 230 yards. In the upcoming week many will use the word poise when talking about Davis, however, Jeff Fisher has still made it clear that Hill is the starting QB when moving forward. Fisher probably is saying that to keep tension from the QBs and making a QB controversy. The Buccaneers started the game strong with a Josh McCown touchdown in the opening drive, but the Rams answered right away with Zac Stacy giving the Rams their first touchdown of the season. Greg Zuerlein went 4 for 4 with a length high of 46 yards.
Rams Pros - T.J. McDonald Jr. blocked both a field goal and a punt. Both blocks were very helpful to the win. Brian Quick once again looked great as the top receiver in the game yard wise for both teams.
Rams Cons - The offensive line still has some growing pains and is allowing to much pressure on Austin Davis.
Buccaneers Pros - Josh McCown had a great motor on him rushing for two touchdowns. Bobby Rainey also had a great game rushing just short of a 150 yards.
Buccaneers Cons - Vincent Jackson didn't have the more explosive game he need against the Rams' questionable secondary.
Player of the Game: T.J McDonald Jr.
