Gould FG25
A second International game in three years and a second straight defeat at Wembley Stadium. The Bucs
fought back from a 21-5 fourth quarter deficit but four Josh Freeman interceptions and a costly personal foul
penalty on Aqib Talib were too much for the Bucs to overcome. Earnest Graham sustained what would turn
out to be a career-ending interception in the first half.
