09/18/1977 – Buccaneers 2nd season opened with a loss against the Philadelphis Eagles being held to 160 total yards.
The Eagles tight end Keith Krepfle, playing in a cast with pins in his hand, caught a 17-yard touchdown pass from Ron Jaworski and made a 28-yard reception that set up a second touchdown. Ricky Bell carried the ball 15 times for 53 yards for the Buccaneers, but killed a scoring drive by fumbling on the Eagles’ 9-yard line.
With Randy Hedberg unable to pick up the Eagles’ blitzes, the Buccaneers were ineffective on offense. After having praised the offensive line’s performance in their final preseason game against the Baltimore Colts, coach McKay complained that the line “refused to block”, and called the team’s performance “horse manure”.
The offense failed to convert four opportunities from deep within Eagles territory, and scored only on a 22-yard Dave Green field goal.
