Sunday October 13, 1985 - Home Game

LOSS - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 27 Los Angeles Rams 31

For the second consecutive week, the Buccaneers lost, despite holding a halftime lead against an unbeaten team.

The Buccaneers' defense played well in their first game without Hugh Green, and they recovered three Ram fumbles in the first half. The Rams also committed eight first-half penalties. In the second half, LeRoy Irvin and Carl Ekern returned interceptions for touchdowns to edge past the Buccaneers.

DeBerg's four interceptions gave him a season total of 13, the most in the NFL.
