Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20 New York Giants 17
Sunday 11 November 1984 at Tampa Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW Dick Stockton and Hank Stram
James Wilder went over the 1,000-yard rushing mark for the first
time in his career and became only the second Buc back after
Ricky Bell to reach such a mark. Incidentally, it was during the
only game in the 1984 season in which he did not catch a pass.
The Giants were held to just 238 yards of total offense as the
Bucs gained revenge for their defeat earlier in the season in the
Meadowlands.
