This Date In History: Buccaneers Win The NFC Championship Game

The Buccaneers had some major wins this past season, beating playoff contenders like the Falcons, Chiefs and Seahawks. While Tampa Bay may have missed out on this year’s postseason, now is still a good time to look back on some franchise history.

The Bucs saw their season end at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2000 and 2001. They also dropped the regular season matchup in 2002, so when the NFC Championship Game came around, revenge was on the line. One week after a 31-6 rout of the 49ers, the Bucs shut down the Eagles on the road by a score of 27-10.
