Sunday January 12, 2003 - Home Game

WON - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31 San Francisco 49ers 06

POST-SEASON: NFC Divisional Playoffs

The Buccaneers hosted the 49ers, who were fresh off one of the largest comeback games in their history in the 39–38 wildcard round victory over the Giants.

With the league's top-ranked defense during the 2002 regular season, the Buccaneers forced five turnovers; they intercepted quarterback Jeff Garcia three times and sacked him four times, and limited the 49ers to only two field goals.

Tampa Bay quarterback Brad Johnson, who had been sidelined for a month, returned to throw for 196 yards and two touchdowns. Fullback Mike Alstott scored two touchdowns, while the Buccaneers held onto the ball for 36:46 and held the 49ers to a season low 228 yards. This was San Francisco's first playoff game without a touchdown since 1986 and the 49ers' last playoff game until 2011.
