| The Bucs' receivers finally catch on |
|
The Bucs won their home opener in 1994 in front of just over 36,000 fans, a half-empty Tampa Stadium. This was Craig Erickson's best game as a pro, passing for over 300 yards and three scores, and missing on only five passes all day. The Colts did threaten late in the game, but were stopped on downs from inside the Buccaneer 4-yard line and the victory was secured.
