Most Valuable Player: | Buccaneers FS Dexter Jackson (2 INTs, 2 passes defensed) |
The Tampa Bay defense dominated the game forcing Raiders' quarterback Rich Gannon to throw a Super Bowl record five interceptions, three of which were returned for touchdowns. Bucs safety Dexter Jackson, who had two of those interceptions was named Super Bowl MVP. The Buccaneers' scored 34 unanswered points after Oakland had scored the first 3 points to win their first Super Bowl.
Oakland's Charles Woodson intercepted Brad Johnson three plays into the game to give Oakland the ball at the Buccaneers' 36, leading to Sebastian Janikowski's 40-yard field goal. The Buccaneers answered Janikowski's field goal on the ensuing posession with Martin Gramatica's 31-yard boot to tie the game.
An interception by Dexter Jackson set up Gramatica's go-ahead field goal early in the second quarter. Midway through the second quarter, a 25-yard punt return by Karl Williams and a 19-yard run by Michael Pittman set up Tampa Bay's Mike Alstott's 2-yard touchdown run. Before the half, the Buccaneers drove 77 yards, aided by three defensive penalties and pass receptions of 16 and 12 yards by Alstott, to set up Brad Johnson's 5-yard touchdown pass to Keenan McCardell. Tampa Bay had a 20-3 lead at halftime.
With their first possession of the second half, the Buccaneers had a 14-play, 89-yard drive resulting in a 8-yard scoring toss to McCardell. Two plays later, Dwight Smith intercepted another Gannon's pass and returned it 44 yards for a touchdown and a 34-3 lead.
Oakland's started to fight back. Jerry Porter's 39-yard touchdown catch in the back of the end zone made it 34-9. Less than three minutes later, Tim Johnson blocked a Tom Tupa's punt with Eric Johnson taking the ball into the end zone for a touchdown. Oakland now trailed 34-15 after missing the two point conversion attempt. The Buccaneers drove deep downfield again, but Tupa mishandled the snap for a field-goal attempt, allowing the Raiders to regain possession. Gannon hit Jerry Rice with a 48-yard touchdown pass with 6:06 left to trim the lead to 34-21. Two interceptions thrown by Oakland late in the game both resulted in touchdown returns of 44 and 50 yeards and a final score of 48-21.
Overall Tampa Bay's Johnson was 18 of 34 for 215 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. Pittman had 29 carries for 124 yards. Oakland's Gannon was 24 of 44 for 272 yards, two touchdowns and a Super Bowl record five interceptions.
