20 October 1985 - Bucs 38 Dolphins 41 - Jimmie Giles’ 4 TDs
This really was a wild one. Twice the Bucs trailed by 17 points, but four DeBerg-Giles TD
passes, both career highs, brought the Bucs level inside the final minute. After an earlier
Fuad Reveiz fieldgoal had been partially blocked but still crept over the bar, the game
winner came with six seconds to play. DeBerg threw a Hail Mary on the last play of the
game that Kevin House caught at the Miami 23-yard line but time had expired.

Doug Martin R.I.P.
News broke Sunday of the passing of Doug Martin at the age of just 36.
He was a first round pick in 2012 and had a six-year career with the
Bucs that featured two truly stellar seasons and four disappointing
ones.
He earned a contract extension after his 2015 All-Pro and Pro Bowl season but was
released in February 2018 going on to play the following season with the Raiders. He was
injured in the 2019 pre-season and never played in the NFL again.
He posted the second best rushing season in franchise history in 2012 and owns the two
best single-game rushing performances in team history. And he had the unofficial
nickname of “The Muscle Hamster”.
