| The St. Petersburg Times reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Josh Johnson will remain the team's starting quarterback, according to head coach Raheem Morris. 'It's Josh's football team right now,' Morris said. 'We'll see Josh Johnson. QB Josh Freeman's got to take advantage of any opportunity when or if the opportunity comes.' Johnson went 26-of-50 for 240 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions in Week 5 against the Philadelphia Eagles. He also rushed five times for 40 yards. |

| Jim Flynn, of PewterReport.com, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris said Monday, Oct. 5, he is sticking with QB Josh Johnson in Week 5. Johnson threw for 106 yards, completing 13-of-22 passes with one touchdown and one interception in Week 4. Johnson, however, appeared to be hesitant to throw the ball downfield. 'We called more shots in the second half trying to be aggressive and trying to get the ball to Antonio (Bryant),' Morris said. 'We have to develop our confidence at the quarterback-receiver relationship to take those shots.' |

| Joe Henderson, of The Tampa Tribune, reports Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Josh Johnson said he believes he has a chance to win the starting quarterback job. 'Right now is not when it will be determined. It won't be determined until the end of training camp and the preseason games. I was told I will have a chance to compete for the job, but we'll see in the end. Right now, I don't know so I don't really worry about it. I just take advantage of the opportunities I get because that's all I can control until they announce who's starting,' Johnson said. |
