The Bucs had a chance to tie this one against the SuperBowl-bound Bills, but terrible clock management on the final drive wasted the last five minutes, and the Bucs were stuck on the Buffalo eight-yard line when time expired. Chris Chandler replaced Vinny in the second quarter to the delight of the crowd, but neither QB could move the ball satisfactorily and only two Bill turnovers slowed their no-huddle offense on the day.
