Tampa Bay Buccaneers 16 St.Louis Cardinals 0
Sunday 10 November 1985 at Tampa Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW Verne Lundqvist and Terry Bradshaw
The Bucs finally won a game in 1985 and did it with only their second shut-
out in team history following the division clincher six years earlier against
the Chiefs. Three long fieldgoals by Donald Igwebuike, a career high
receiving day by Jimmie Giles, and a typical workload performance by
James Wilder were the offensive highlights. The defense preserved the
shutout by forcing three turrnovers.
