Jacksonville Jaguars vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Odds 2010 NFL Preseason Week 3

Jacksonville Jaguars vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Odds 2010 NFL Preseason Week 3: Looking for their first win of the 2010 NFL Preseason, the (0-2) Jacksonville Jaguars [-2½] will visit the sports betting odds underdog (1-1) Tampa Bay Buccaneers [+2½] this evening. The Bucs and the Jags are scheduled to kick off tonight at Raymond James Stadium beginning at 7:30 PM ET (6:30 PM CT/4:30 PM PT). For the Jaguars, injuries to key players proved to be costly last season.

Trying to avoid the same, head coach Jack Del Rio will be extra cautious with its star players for the next two 2010 NFL Preseason games. One guy that will not see any action tonight because of fear of injury will be running back Maurice Jones-Drew.

According to various reports, Jones-Drew appears to be done for the remainder of the 2010 NFL Preseason. MJD missed three days of practice this week, as his agent continued to deny reports that his client had undergone arthroscopic knee surgery. The OVER/UNDER for this, Jacksonville Jaguars vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Odds 2010 NFL Preseason Week 3 game is set at a combined total of 37 points scored.

"What arthroscopic surgery is there that a player can return in one week?" MJD’s agent told a local newspaper. "There isn't one. It doesn't make sense for him to go out for three quarters and get smashed in a preseason game. The organization has made a very smart decision to rest him."

For the Buccaneers, their main concern comes at the quarterback position, where second-year signal-caller, Josh Freeman prepares his body for the start of the regular season. Freeman is currently nursing an injured thumb that will keep him out of the next two Preseason games.

"I was just hoping it was jammed, but it was a little different pain than just being jammed," Freeman said. "When I saw the X-ray and heard the word fracture, I was kind of freaking out. They told me: 'Hey, just take care of it, and it should just be a couple of weeks.' When I heard that, it made me feel a lot better."
