Could Leftwich face the Bucs?

My friend and former co-worker Steve Wyche at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution seems to think Byron Leftwich could supplant Joey Harrington this weekend at quarterback despite the Falcons' two-game winning streak.

Apparently Leftwich is just about back from the minor ankle surgery he underwent two weeks ago, and coach Bobby Petrino may have a decision to make. Leftwich had been the starter before he went down, sending Harrington to the bench shortly after Leftwich's arrival in Atlana.

Whatever their plans, you can be certain the Falcons are going to be coy about this all week so the Bucs don't get the chance to adjust their defensive gameplan. Just something to keep an eye on. You can see the AJC blog entry here.
