This was the then-biggest win in franchise history as the Bucs took advantage of four interceptions to race to a 27-0 half-time lead. Cedric Brown returned a pick for a score for the second straight week, and Bill Capece set a then-team record with a 51-yard field goal.
Even back-up QB Chuck Fusina came off the bench to throw his only TD in Buccaneer colours. James Owens, who remains the only Buccaneer ever to have won an Olympic medal, had his best-ever day as a Buccaneer.
