RECAP: Indianapolis scored on its first possession, marching 75 yards in eight plays. Manning completed all five of his passes during the drive (for 77 yards) to set up Ricky Williams' 1-yard TD run. The Bucs scored with just more than five minutes left when cornerback Ronde Barber intercepted Manning and returned it for a TD to make it 35-14. A 90-yard kickoff return by Brad Pyatt started the comeback, and James Mungro scored on a 3-yard run on fourth down. A recovered onside kick with 3:36 left led to another TD, a 28-yard pass to Marvin Harrison on fourth down. The Colts forced overtime after a 52-yard pass to Harrison put the ball at the Bucs 6. Williams scored two plays later from 1 yard out.

KEY PLAY: Manning and Harrison burned Tim Wansley and the Bucs all night. But no play was bigger than the 52-yarder to set up the tying TD.

STATS: Rushing yards - Bucs 41, Colts 15; Passing yards - Bucs 25, Colts 194; Total yards - Bucs 66 yards, Colts 209; Turnovers - Bucs 0, Colts 1; Sacks - Bucs 1, Colts 0; Time of possession - Bucs 6:42, Colts 8:18.

DID YOU NOTICE: Bonehead move of the game: Kenyatta Walker getting called for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty with 2:04 left. The penalty pushed back the Bucs 15 yards and, more important, stopped the clock, giving the Colts a free timeout. ... Ellis Wyms' sack of Peyton Manning with 6:14 left extended the Bucs' streak of consecutive games with a sack to 64.
