All the scoring took place in the fourth quarter. After a Bob Thomas field goal, Walter Payton ran three yards for a touchdown. Again, the Bucs offense had its problems and ten possessions ended in punts. Behind Randy Hedberg who was back starting at quarterback, the Bucs generated 21 yards passing. The Bears had been 15 point favourites in this one. After the 10-0 defeat, the Buccaneers had managed just seven points over their last five games and were on a 26-game losing streak.
