Buccaneers vs. Tennessee Titans 
LOSS - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17 Tennessee Titans 23
The Buccaneers and Titans combined for 9 turnovers on a rainy, sloppy afternoon. Chris Johnson ran for 190 yards, but the Buccaneers led 17–10 late in the fourth quarter.
Trailing 23–17, Josh Freeman drove Tampa Bay to the Tennessee 25-yard line in the final minute. Facing a 4th down and 1, Freeman tried a QB sneak, but fumbled the snap due to the wet ball. He was tackled for a loss, the Buccaneers turned the ball over on downs, and the Titans held on to win.
