Tampa Bay Buccaneers 6 Seattle Seahawks 10 Sunday 19 September 2004 at Raymond James Stadium FOX COMMENTARY CREW Curt Menafee and Tim Green
A second straight game without an offensive touchdown and one in which Jon Gruden pulled Brad Johnson after an ineffective start and put second-year QB Chris Simms in for his first regular season action. He led the Bucs to a pair of second quarter fieldgoals but nothing more and his interception ended a scoring threat.
