Tampa Bay Buccaneers 13 New York Jets 16 Sunday 1 September 1991 at The MeadowlandsCBS COMMENTARY CREW Dick Stockton and Merlin Olsen
The Bucs finished the 1990 season losing to the Jets - they started 1991 in the same way. The Jets drove 48 yards in nine plays to set up their winning fieldgoal with 1:22 to play, and the Bucs then promptly fumbled away the ensuing kick off to seal their defeat. "I'm not so sure I saw a whole lot of good," Richard Williamson said. "I saw some erratic play, which was not good."
