Buccaneers vs. New York Giants 
LOSS - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 14 New York Giants 21
The only shining star for this game may have been Reggie Cob's 100-yad rushing performance. Testaverde unsuccesfully sailed as Pepper Johnson, at every opportunity, sacked the Buccaneers quarterback adding 4.5 to his stat chart.
