The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lose Michael Pittman to injury

Michael Pittman will miss the next 6-8 weeks due to a high ankle sprain.  This really hurts the Bucs as they were depending Pittman to replace the injured Cadillac Williams.  Pittman has carried the football 35 times for 169 yards (4.8 ypc) and he also has caught 11 passes for 94 yards (8.5 avg).  Look for Ernest Graham to take over as the Bucs feature back unless they acquire another back through trade.  Graham has carried the ball 36 times for 147 yards (4.1 ypc) with 3 TD runs and he also has caught 4 passes for 35 yards (8.8 avg).  Look for rookie Kenneth Darby to get some work behind Graham.
