Tampa Bay Buccaneers 10 Chicago Bears 13 Sunday 19 November 2000 at Soldier Field
SCORING CHI 6:04-1Q Edinger FG34 TB 14:55-2Q Gramatica FG33 CHI 0:40-2Q Parrish 38 interception return (Edinger kick) TB 9:23-3Q King 9 run (Gramatica kick) CHI 10:02-4Q Edinger FG48
It was under 40 degrees in Soldier Field (about 16 with the windchill factored in) so naturally the Bucs lost. Shaun King's interception to Tony Parrish just before half-time proved decisive, as did a late one to Brian Urlacher that stopped the final Tampa Bay drive of the game.
