Stephen Holder, of the St. Petersburg Times, reports the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are trying to balance carries between RBs Cadillac Williams and Derrick Ward but Ward has been getting less carries because of Williams' performance as well as the team's lack of possessions during games. "We'd like to (get Ward involved) but what happened is, in the previous game, we only had three series in the second half. (We said) 'Hey, Derrick, it's your turn.' Well, we only had two possessions, now all of a sudden, it's the fourth quarter," Offensive coordinator Greg Olson said.
