Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23 Green Bay Packers 26
Sunday 10 October 1999 at Lambeau Field
ESPN COMMENTARY CREW Mike Patrick, Paul Maguire and Joe Theisman
Brett Favre celebrated his 30th birthday by taking the Packers
73-yards in six plays to win the game with just over a minute
left on a TD strike to Antonio Freeman. This game was live on
Armed Forces Radio as it was a Sunday night game and it
looked to be one worth watching when Mike Alstott rolled 22
yards to score inside the two minute warning. "I'd have bet my
life we'd have stopped them on that drive," said Warren Sapp,
who had two of Tampa Bay's five sacks.
