Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31 Buffalo Bills 17 Sunday 26 November 2000 at Raymond James Stadium CBS COMMENTARY CREW Dick Enberg and Dan Dierdorf
The truth really hurts. Karl Williams had another punt return for a score and Warrick Dunn rushed for over 100 yards in the absence of the injured Mike Alstott, and the Bucs returned to winning ways. Warren Sapp added a pair of sacks and even though the Bucs gained less than 200 yards in total offense, it was enough to win another Buc ball game.
