Bucs' D bracing for another early season test
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Cam Newton, Eli Manning and now Tony Romo.

The Bucs contained the explosive Newton to beat Carolina in Week 1 and wilted against Manning and the Super Bowl champion New York Giants in a 41-34 loss last weekend. Up next is another stern test Sunday against Romo, who's been nearly flawless in three career games against Tampa Bay.
Romo is 3-0 against the Bucs and has completed 71 percent of his attempts for 908 yards, 11 touchdowns, no interceptions and a 144.8 passer rating.
