The Bucs were driving with five minutes to play and only down by three, but a late Bear interception and clinching TD ended any hopes of a win in Soldier Field. Craig Erickson made his first appearance for the Bucs in late mop-up duty of Vinny and Reggie Cobb had his second 100-yard game of the season
