TAMPA, Fla. -- It's early Saturday morning and Matt Dissinger, director of HBO's "Hard Knocks" and producer for NFL Films, gets a phone call. His crew -- some of them fresh off the team charter from Cincinnati, which meant no one got to bed until 3:30 a.m. -- believes a cut is about to happen.

Kicker Roberto Aguayo, who has been entrenched in a kicking battle with Nick Folk, missed a field goal and an extra point in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' preseason opener against the Bengals on Friday night. They decide to mobilize or execute a "fire drill," as they call it.
