Tampa Bay Buccaneers 41 Chicago Bears 0 Sunday 10 September 2000 at Raymond James StadiumFOX COMMENTARY CREWDick Stockton and Matt Millen
This was as big a massacre of the Bears as the score indicates. Most of the Bears' paltry 165 yards of offense came in the fourth quarter and their only scoring opportunity was a 42-yard Paul Edinger fieldgoal that sailed wide. Michael Jordan was there as a guest of the Glazers, the sellout crowd went home happy and everyone thought the Bucs were on their way to the Super Bowl. "We haven't won like that in quite a while" summed up Tony Dungy.
