Bucs going down well-worn path, in danger of players 'checking out'

TAMPA, Fla. -- The warning signs are there. This thing -- the losing streak that's now up to five games for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers following a 30-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints -- has the potential to get ugly.

How ugly? There's "we're 6-10 but the coach still has the locker room" ugly. There's "toes on the line" ugly, where the team isn't terrible but hates coming to work every day. And then there's the Raheem Morris "losing 10 straight" kind of ugly. There's also "going 3-13 after firing the offensive coordinator 10 days before the season" ugly.
