Tampa Bay Buccaneers 16 Carolina Panthers 13
Sunday 18 October 1998 at Raymond James Stadium
FOX COMMENTARY CREW Curt Menafee and Brian Baldinger
From zero to hero. Trent Dilfer led a fourth quarter comeback with
two late drives and finished the game off with a 29-yard TD strike
to a leaping Karl Williams in the right corner of the endzone. John
Kasay had a chance to tie the scores on a 47-yard fieldgoal with
10 seconds left, but missed. "We're back at .500" said Derrick
Brooks as the Bucs upped their record to 3-3 after an 0-2 start.
"It's a whole new season for us."
