Tampa Bay Buccaneers 3 Los Angeles Rams 35
Sunday 29 November 1987 at Anaheim Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW Jim Lampley and Kenny Stabler
An easy win for the Rams, marked by them gaining more yards
on the ground (213) than the Bucs did in total offense (201). Los
Angeles moved the ball at will at times and had a 21-0 lead at
half-time on the back of accurate passing from Jim Everett, and
Charles White's rushing that led the NFL at that point in the
season. Vinny played the final two series in preparation for his
first NFL start the following week in New Orleans.

VIDEO CLIPS
Curt Jarvis made a nice move to record his first NFL sack
Jeff Smith’s long run opened the second half on a positive note
So few Buc high points that even Iggy’s FG had network interference
