LOSS - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 07 Minnesota Vikings 35

Prior halftime as Doleman intercepted a pass for the Vikings' fourth straight touchdown, many in the crowd of 49,095 BuccaneerFans stood up and turned their backs on the team for nine consecutive losing seasons. It was the fifth consecutive loss by the Buccaneers (3-6) and the second victory in less than a week for the NFC Central Division-leading Vikings (7-2).

Coupled with their 38-7 loss two weeks prior against the Detroit Lions, the Buccaneers had been outscored 73-14 in the worst consecutive regular-season defeats at home in franchise history. "The part that disappoints you is you're at home and you're trying to do something positive in front of your Buccaneersfans," Sam Wyche said. "That doesn't show any progress. I'm not sure that's even running up and down the starting line. It looks like we're retreating, but it's not that way. The guys are looking me square in the eye, almost like, `What's happening here?".
