Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23 Green Bay Packers 17
Sunday 1 November 1987 at Milwaukee County Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW James Brown and Dan Jiggetts
After moving out to a 20-0 lead for the second straight week, it
was nearly deja vu all over again for the Bucs as they hold off a
late rally by the Packers to move to 4-3 on the season. The
Green Bay recovery started when Randy Wright replaced Don
Majkowski and drove the home side to two fourth quarter
scores. However Steve DeBerg and Calvin Magee twice
connected on third down passes to use up the final 3:45 on the
clock and preserve the Buccaneer victory.
