WON - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 14 Washington Redskins 06
Buccaneers Alvin Harper thinking he had been ruled out of bounds, he bumped the referee and found himself red flagged to the sidelines, not the ideal location for celebrating his touchdown.
With the Buccaneers holding a 14-6 lead the Redskins had a 22-play drive in the last four minutes of the game that placed them seven times within the 5-yard line facing a cannon line of Buccaneers.
