Sunday, October 15, 1995 - Home Game

WON - Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20 Minnesota Vikings 17

***HISTORIC MARKER*** Buccaneers kicker Michael Husted kicked the second-longest overtime field goal in NFL history for this victory infront of a home crowd of 55,703 BuccaneersFans and tying the franchise's second-longest winning streak. Ironically, the game mirrored the November 11, 1994 game against the Vickings ending in a Buccaneers victory in overtime 20-17 as well.

The Buccaneers, who maintain a half-game lead in the NFC Central over Green Bay and Chicago (both 4-2), have won four straight, tying the franchise's second-longest streak, and are at least three games over .500 for the first time since the close of their 10-6 season in 1979.
