SEBRING — Tanglewood actor Howard Johnson expects to hear booing when he steps on stage in the role of "Fleetwood Dashaway" in a local production of "He Done Her Wrong." But don't expect Johnson to recoil in horror or become dismayed. He plays the villain as one of six actors in the Tanglewood Actors' Guild who will perform in the one act Anita Bell play on Dec. 5, 6 and 7 at the multi-purpose room at the 1,250-home development.

By mixing up their coverages, looks and blitz packages, the Bucs can force Manning into some mistakes. A key player likely will be CB Ronde Barber. When he lines up in the slot, Barber is a very effective blitzer who often surprises teams with his burst off the ball. Another player to watch is S Jermaine Phillips. He is playing at the top of his game and has been a punishing hitter. If he can get into the backfield, he could force Manning to make mistakes. ...more
