Tampa Bay Buccaneers 14 Atlanta Falcons 24
Sunday 14 November 2004 at The Georgia Dome
FOX COMMENTARY CREW Sam Rosen and Bill Maas
The two-game winning streak came to an end in Atlanta after
the Falcons jumped out to an early 17-0 lead and in spite of a
pair of Brian Griese TD passes, the usual problems of
defensive lapses and no confidence in kicker Martin
Gramatica came back to haunt Jon Gruden’s team.
