Tampa Bay Buccaneers 34 Kansas City Chiefs 31
Sunday 7 November 2004 at Raymond James Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW Gus Johnson and Brent Jones
A wild first half which featured touchdowns everywhere
settled down a little after the break and Michael Pittman’s
second and third TD runs of the day proved the difference on
a day when the Chiefs amassed over 400 yards against the
Tampa defense. Dwight Smith had a huge day on defense
and was awarded the game ball for his interception and
touchdown-saving chase down and fumble recovery to
prevent another score.
