Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17 New York Jets 21
Sunday 24 September 2000 at Raymond James Stadium
CBS COMMENTARY CREW Greg Gumbel and Phil Simms
Leading 17-3 inside the final two minutes, the Bucs looked like
that had this battle of the unbeatens. But then ex-Buc Vinny
Testaverde hit Curtis Martin with a score and after a Mike Alstott
fumble, Martin himself lofted a half-back option pass to Wayne
Chrebet for the game winner at a watery Raymond James
Stadium. This was Vinny's first game back in Tampa and also
the game in which Keyshawn only caught one ball, a shovel
pass for a single solitary yard.
