TRUTH !!
The Buccaneers started their franchise in 1976 by going 0-14 under head
coach John McKay. 1977 wasn't much better as they lost their first 12 games
before the team finally won their first-ever game. That win came against the
embarrassed New Orleans Saints 33-14. The St. Louis Cardinals also bit the
turf to the Bucs the following week and lost 17-7. The Buccaneers made their
first playoffs in 1979, then experienced their first Super Bowl title in
2003, Super Bowl XXXVII against the Raiders.
