Bucs backup QB McCown engineers winning TD drive to defeat the Saints 27-23

Postgame Recaps, Storylines, and News

Sean Payton waited a long time to bring back the trick play he dubbed "the Superdome Special." He picked the wrong time. Devery Henderson fumbled a late, awkward toss from Reggie Bush, allowing backup quarterback Luke McCown to drive Tampa Bay for a touchdown with 17 seconds left that lifted the Buccaneers to a 27-23 triumph over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.

The victory gave Tampa Bay (8-4) a comfortable three-game lead in the NFC South Division with only four games left.
