| GAME REPORTS AND COMMENTS |
|
For the second straight season the Bucs went out of the playoffs at the first hurdle at a cold Veterans Stadium. And this time it cost Tony Dungy his job as he was fired within 48 hours of the loss to the Eagles. It was also the night of my debut presenting for Sky Sports.
