'''Super Bowl XXXVII''' was an [[American football]] game between the [[American Football Conference]] (AFC) champion [[2002 Oakland Raiders season|Oakland Raiders]] and the [[National Football Conference]] (NFC) champion [[2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers season|Tampa Bay Buccaneers]] to decide the [[National Football League]] (NFL) champion for the [[2002 NFL season|2002 season]]. The Buccaneers defeated the Raiders by the score of 48–21, tied with [[Super Bowl XXXV]] for the seventh-largest Super Bowl margin of victory, winning their first-ever [[Super Bowl]].<ref>{{cite web|title=mcubed.net : NFL : Super bowl scores sorted by margin of victory|url=http://mcubed.net/nfl/sbptmar.shtml|website=mcubed.net|access-date=February 3, 2016}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Olney |first=Buster |author-link=Buster Olney |date=January 27, 2003 |title=Buccaneers Dominate Raiders to Win Super Bowl |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/27/sports/buccaneers-dominate-raiders-to-win-super-bowl.html |access-date=July 18, 2022 |work=The New York Times |language=en-US |issn=0362-4331}}</ref> The game was played on January 26, 2003, at [[San Diego Stadium|Qualcomm Stadium]] in [[San Diego]], [[California]].

To date, this is the last Super Bowl to be played in the month of January, as all subsequent games have been played in February. It is also the last to have been played in the week following the conference championship games (the others being Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XVII|XVII]], [[Super Bowl XXV|XXV]], [[Super Bowl XXVIII|XXVIII]], [[Super Bowl XXXIV|XXXIV]], and [[Super Bowl XXXVI|XXXVI]]) and the last to be played at Qualcomm Stadium, which previously hosted [[Super Bowl XXII]] (then called Jack Murphy Stadium) and [[Super Bowl XXXII]] and was demolished in 2021. Since the NFL no longer has a team in San Diego after the [[San Diego Chargers|Chargers]] relocated to [[Los Angeles]] in [[2017 NFL season|2017]], and the league has a policy not to award Super Bowls to metropolitan areas that do not have a team within them, Super Bowl XXXVII will be the last to be played in San Diego for the foreseeable future unless an NFL team returns to the area.

This was the first Super Bowl in which the league's number one-ranked offense (Raiders) faced the league's number one-ranked defense (Buccaneers). The game sometimes is referred to as the "'''Gruden Bowl'''", because the primary storyline surrounding the game revolved around [[Jon Gruden]]. Gruden was the Raiders' head coach from [[1998 NFL season|1998]] to [[2001 NFL season|2001]], and as a result of a trade then became the Buccaneers head coach in 2002. Tampa Bay, "Gruden's ''new'' team", made their first Super Bowl appearance in team history after posting a {{Win–loss record|w=12|l=4}} regular season record. Oakland, "Gruden's ''old'' team", advanced to their fifth Super Bowl after an {{Win–loss record|w=11|l=5}} regular season. Super Bowl XXXVII is also referred to as the "'''Pirate Bowl'''" or "'''Battle of the Pirates'''", due to both teams' pirate-themed mascots and logos.<ref>{{cite news|last=Martzke|first=Rudy|title=Gruden Bowl keeps fans glued to TVs|url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/super/2003-01-27-ratings_x.htm|publisher=USATODAY.com|newspaper=USA Today|date=January 27, 2003}}</ref>

The Raiders came into the game as four-point favorites. However, offensive struggles from the Raiders, and a dominant defensive performance from the Buccaneers throughout much of the game would unravel the juggernaut Raiders offense. Raiders quarterback [[Rich Gannon]] threw a Super Bowl record five interceptions, three of which were returned for touchdowns. The Buccaneers also sacked Gannon five times, and scored 34 consecutive points to build a 34–3 lead late in the third quarter. Buccaneers safety [[Dexter Jackson (safety)|Dexter Jackson]], who had two of those interceptions and returned them for 34 yards, was named [[Super Bowl MVP]]. Jackson became only the second safety and third defensive back named Super Bowl MVP.

==Background==
===Host selection process===
NFL owners originally voted to award Super Bowl XXXVII to [[San Francisco]] during their October 15, 1997 meeting in [[Washington, D.C.]]<ref name="theten10-16-1997pg28">{{cite news|title=Houston needs news stadium to satisfy NFL|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-tennessean/152394864/|newspaper=The Tennessean|first=Jeff|last=Legwold|page=28|via=[[Newspapers.com]]|date=October 16, 1997|access-date=July 31, 2024}}{{Open access}}</ref> The [[San Francisco 49ers|49ers]] had recently announced plans for a [[Levi's Stadium#The 1997 plan|new stadium]], and were awarded the Super Bowl contingent upon its completion. This was the second time the city had been awarded the Super Bowl on a conditional basis. In 1994, [[Super Bowl XXXIII]] was awarded to [[Candlestick Park]], based on a comprehensive stadium renovation plan.<ref name="SBee11-03-1994pg14">{{cite news|title='Stick gets 1999 Super Bowl (Part 1)|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-sacramento-bee/152262274/|newspaper=The Sacramento Bee|first=John|last=Schumacher|page=14|via=[[Newspapers.com]]|date=November 3, 1994|access-date=July 29, 2024}}{{Open access}}</ref><ref name="SBee11-03-1994pg21">{{cite news|title='Stick gets 1999 Super Bowl (Part 2)|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-sacramento-bee/152262549/|newspaper=The Sacramento Bee|first=John|last=Schumacher|page=21|via=[[Newspapers.com]]|date=November 3, 1994|access-date=July 29, 2024}}{{Open access}}</ref> However, when funding for those renovation plans fell through, the hosting duties were withdrawn. This time around, the San Francisco hosting committee had planned to pursue [[Super Bowl XXXVI|XXXVI]], but due to logistical complications, switched their proposal to XXXVII. The owners awarded the game to San Francisco, and no other cities were considered. They skipped the awarding of [[Super Bowl XXXVI|XXXVI]], and scheduled the bidding for that game for the spring of 1998.<ref name="sfex10-16-1997pg18">{{cite news|title=2003 looking Super for S.F. tourism|url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-san-francisco-examiner/152394660/|newspaper=The San Francisco Examiner|first1=Gregory|last1=Lewis|first2=John|last2=Crumpacker|first3=Eric|last3=Brazil|page=18|via=[[Newspapers.com]]|date=October 16, 1997|access-date=July 31, 2024}}{{Open access}}</ref>

The plans for the new stadium and mall at [[Candlestick Point State Recreation Area|Candlestick Point]] never materialized.

===Oakland Raiders===
{{further|2002 Oakland Raiders season}}

[[Oakland Raiders]] owner [[Al Davis]] was known to have the lowest salaries for coaches in the league, and head coach [[Jon Gruden]] was no exception. Instead of paying a high salary for Gruden, Davis opted to trade the rights for Gruden to the Buccaneers in exchange for four [[NFL Draft|draft picks]]. The Buccaneers ended up giving two first-round picks, two second-round picks and $8 million to the Raiders to get Gruden.

As a result of Gruden's departure, Raiders offensive coordinator [[Bill Callahan (American football coach)|Bill Callahan]] was promoted to head coach. Despite the loss of Gruden in 2002, the Raiders still managed to earn a share of the AFC's best record at 11–5. The offense led the league in total passing yards (4,689) and ranked second in total yards gained (6,451).<ref>{{Cite web |title=2002 NFL Standings & Team Stats |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2002/index.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>

Raiders quarterback [[Rich Gannon]] had an MVP season, completing 418 out of 618 passes for 4,689 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions.<ref>{{Cite web |title=AP NFL Most Valuable Player Winners |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/awards/ap-nfl-mvp-award.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> His 418 completions and his 10 games with over 300 passing yards were both NFL records.<ref>{{Cite web |title=NFL Single-Season Passes Completed Leaders Through 2002 |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_cmp_single_season_2002.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> He also ran 50 times for 156 yards and three touchdowns.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Rich Gannon 2002 Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/G/GannRi00/gamelog/2002/ |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> [[Jerry Rice]], who was already the NFL's all-time leader in nearly every receiving record after 17 seasons, had a Pro Bowl season for the 13th time in his career 1,211 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Jerry Rice 2002 Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/R/RiceJe00/gamelog/2002/ |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> Gannon's other weapons in passing game were 15-year veteran receiver [[Tim Brown (American football)|Tim Brown]] (930 yards and two touchdowns) and young receiver [[Jerry Porter (American football)|Jerry Porter]] (688 yards and nine touchdowns). Multi-talented running back [[Charlie Garner]] was the team's leading rusher with 962 yards and seven touchdowns, while also leading all NFL running backs in receiving with 91 receptions for 941 yards and another four touchdowns. Running back [[Tyrone Wheatley]] was also a contributor with 419 rushing yards, while fullback [[Zack Crockett]] provided both of them with solid blocking and scored eight touchdowns. Up front, their offensive line was led by two Pro Bowlers, guard [[Lincoln Kennedy]] and center [[Barret Robbins]].

The Raiders' weakness was primarily on their defense, which ranked 25th in the league in passing yards allowed (3,787) and 12th in total yards (5,240).<ref>{{Cite web |title=2002 NFL Opposition & Defensive Statistics |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2002/opp.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> Veteran [[Pro Bowl]] safety [[Rod Woodson]] recorded a league-leading eight interceptions including two touchdowns. Up front, their line was anchored by defensive tackle [[Rod Coleman (American football)|Rod Coleman]], who led the team with 11 sacks. Behind him, the team had a solid veteran linebacker, [[Bill Romanowski]], who was playing in his fifth Super Bowl. Defensive back [[Tory James]] was also a big contributor with four interceptions.

===Tampa Bay Buccaneers===
{{further|2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers season}}

Gruden had trouble getting the offense in sync during his first year as Tampa Bay's head coach. In 2002, the Buccaneers ranked 25th in the league in total yards gained (5,222). Quarterback [[Brad Johnson (American football)|Brad Johnson]] made the Pro Bowl, completing 281 out of 451 passes for 3,049 yards, 22 touchdowns, and six interceptions.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Brad Johnson 2002 Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/J/JohnBr00/gamelog/2002/ |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=2002 NFL Pro Bowlers |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2002/probowl.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> Running back [[Michael Pittman Sr.|Michael Pittman]] led the team in rushing with 718 yards and one touchdown, and added 477 receiving yards. Pro Bowl fullback [[Mike Alstott]] had 548 rushing yards and five touchdowns, and also had 242 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Wide receiver [[Keyshawn Johnson]] led the team with 1,088 receiving yards and five touchdowns, while wide receiver [[Keenan McCardell]] had 670 receiving yards and six touchdowns.

The Buccaneers' defense was still the strength of the team, leading the NFL in total defense (252.8 yards per game), pass defense (155.6 yards per game), points allowed (12.3 points per game), passing touchdowns allowed (10), interceptions (31), and opponent passer rating (48.4). Brooks, Lynch, Sapp, and defensive end [[Simeon Rice]] all had Pro Bowl years. Brooks led the team with 87 tackles and excelled at pass coverage, recording five interceptions and four total touchdowns (an NFL record for a linebacker). The defense as a whole had nine total touchdowns during the regular season and playoffs. Rice led the team with 15.5 sacks. Sapp recorded 7.5 sacks and two interceptions. Cornerback [[Brian Kelly (cornerback)|Brian Kelly]] was also a big asset, leading the team with eight interceptions.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Rosters, Stats, Schedule, Team Draftees |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/tam/2002.htm |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>

===Super Bowl pregame news===
The Raiders entered the game favored to win in their first Super Bowl in 19 years. They were also the first franchise to appear in the Super Bowl in four decades (1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 2000s). However, much of the media hype surrounded the Gruden trade prior to the season. This forced league commissioner [[Paul Tagliabue]] to issue a statement that he might ban all future trades for coaches involving draft choices because it might compromise the draft.<ref>{{cite news|last=Stroud|first=Rick|title=NFL nixes draft picks for coaches|url=http://www.sptimes.com/2003/01/17/news_pf/Bucs/NFL_nixes_draft_picks.shtml|access-date=August 27, 2012|newspaper=St. Petersburg Times|date=January 17, 2003}}</ref>

A distraction for the Raiders was that starting center [[Barret Robbins]] went missing for most of the day before the Super Bowl. Hours before the game, he was admitted to a San Diego hospital, then spent time in rehab at the [[Betty Ford Clinic]]. He was subsequently diagnosed with [[bipolar disorder]]; it turned out that his disappearance was due to a [[manic episode]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.si.com/nfl/2015/12/16/untold-super-bowl-barret-robbins-raiders|title=When Barret Robbins disappeared before Super Bowl|last=Taylor|first=Phil|newspaper=SI.com|access-date=November 30, 2016}}</ref>  Robbins later said he had gone across the border and spent his missing time partying in [[Tijuana, Mexico]], so disoriented that he thought the Raiders had already won the game and he was celebrating the victory.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.si.com/nfl/2015/12/15/untold-super-bowl-barret-robbins-raiders|title = When Barret Robbins disappeared before Super Bowl}}</ref> Backup [[Adam Treu]] (a former [[Pro Bowl]]-er) replaced Robbins.

The Buccaneers, as the designated home team, wore red jerseys and pewter pants. The kit is normally used at home for the second half of the season; the Buccaneers wear white at home during the first half due to the late summer-early autumn heat. The Raiders donned white jerseys with silver pants, the same combination they wore in Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XI|XI]] and [[Super Bowl XV|XV]] (both victories).

The game was broadcast in the United States by [[NFL on ABC|ABC]], with [[Al Michaels]] handling the [[sports commentary|play-by-play]] duties and [[color commentator]] [[John Madden]]. Madden became the first person to announce Super Bowls on different networks in consecutive years, having called [[Super Bowl XXXVI]] on [[NFL on Fox|Fox]] and then moving to ABC after [[Pat Summerall]] retired.

The Super Bowl was the first of three major professional sports championship series [[ESPN on ABC|ABC]] broadcast in 2003, as they would also broadcast the [[2003 Stanley Cup Finals|Stanley Cup Finals]] and the [[2003 NBA Finals|NBA Finals]]. Both the Super Bowl and the Stanley Cup Finals ended up being hosted by Berman (who co-hosted the Stanley Cup Finals with [[John Saunders (journalist)|John Saunders]]).<ref name=StanleyCupFinals/> The state of California ended up having representation in both Super Bowl XXXVII and the 2003 Stanley Cup Finals after the [[Anaheim Ducks|Mighty Ducks of Anaheim]] advanced to the latter.<ref name=StanleyCupFinals/> ABC's lead NHL broadcast team of [[Gary Thorne]], [[Bill Clement]], and [[John Davidson (ice hockey)|John Davidson]] mentioned all of these when they called the Stanley Cup Finals.<ref name=StanleyCupFinals>{{cite video|title=[[NHL on ABC]]: Game 7 of the 2003 Stanley Cup Finals|medium=television|publisher=ABC Sports|date=June 9, 2003}} Thorne, Clement, and J.D. talked about Berman's role in hosting both the Super Bowl and the Stanley Cup Finals on ABC in 2003 and about the role the state of California played during championship series during the Stanley Cup Finals, as [[Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim]] hosted the Stanley Cup Finals, and involved the [[Anaheim Ducks|Mighty Ducks of Anaheim]] (now Anaheim Ducks) taking on the [[New Jersey Devils]].</ref>

For its [[List of Super Bowl lead-out programs|Super Bowl lead-out program]], ABC aired an episode of ''[[Alias (TV series)|Alias]]'' titled "Phase One". Then after the break for late local news, the network premiered its new late night talk show ''[[Jimmy Kimmel Live!]]''.

[[NBC]], which did not hold any NFL television rights during this time between the 1998 and 2005 seasons, provided [[Super Bowl counterprogramming|counter-programming]] against the halftime show, airing a live segment of "[[Weekend Update]]" from the [[comedy]]&ndash;[[variety show]] ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' featuring [[Jimmy Fallon]] and [[Tina Fey]].

Memorable television commercials that aired during the game included the "[[Terry Tate: Office Linebacker]]" [[Reebok]] ad and the [[Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch)|Budweiser]] Zebra Referee. [[Adbowl]] ranked [[FedEx]]'s "Castaway" as the best commercial of the year.

On the radio side, the game was carried nationally by [[NFL on Westwood One|Westwood One]]. [[Marv Albert]], in his first season as the network's lead NFL voice, called the game with [[Boomer Esiason]] as his analyst. [[John Dockery]] and [[Warren Moon]] reported from the field. Locally, the Raiders' broadcast was carried by their then-flagship [[KZAC|KSFO]] with [[Greg Papa]] as lead announcer and [[Tom Flores]] as analyst. The Buccaneers' then-flagship [[WDAE]] carried their broadcast, with [[Gene Deckerhoff]] as lead announcer and [[Scot Brantley]] as analyst.

As the [[2001 New England Patriots season|New England Patriots']] did the previous year, both teams were introduced and entered as a team rather than individually by offensive and defensive starters, establishing this as the new standard practice. To honor the 30th anniversary of the 17–0 undefeated, perfect season of the [[1972 Miami Dolphins season|1972 Miami Dolphins]], the following members of that team appeared during the [[coin flipping|coin toss]] ceremony: [[Don Shula]], [[Bob Griese]], [[Larry Csonka]], [[Larry Little]], [[Jim Langer]], [[Nick Buoniconti]], [[Paul Warfield]].

===Post-game ceremonies===
[[Bon Jovi]] appeared as part of the post-game ceremonies, performing "[[It's My Life (Bon Jovi song)|It's My Life]]" prior to the [[Vince Lombardi Trophy]] presentation and "[[Everyday (Bon Jovi song)|Everyday]]" afterwards (most of the latter performance was not shown on ABC because the network cut to commercials).

==Game summary==
{{external media|video1={{YouTube|YiG9wYOE1B4|Full game broadcast on ABC}}}}
===First quarter===
The Raiders had a great chance to score a touchdown early in the game after cornerback [[Charles Woodson]] intercepted Buccaneers quarterback [[Brad Johnson (American football)|Brad Johnson]]'s pass on the third play of the game and returned it 12 yards to the Tampa Bay 36-yard line. However, six plays later, defensive end [[Simeon Rice]] sacked quarterback [[Rich Gannon]] on third down, forcing Oakland to settle for kicker [[Sebastian Janikowski]]'s 40-yard field goal to give them a 3–0 lead.<ref name="Bucs steal"/>

Buccaneers running back [[Aaron Stecker]] returned the ensuing kickoff 27 yards to the 29-yard line, then appeared to fumble the ball while being tackled. Although the officials initially ruled that the ball was recovered by Oakland defensive back [[Eric Johnson (defensive back)|Eric Johnson]], Tampa Bay challenged the call, and [[instant replay]] determined that both of Stecker's knees were down, and the ball did not come loose until he hit the ground. Gruden and Stecker appeared upset at having to use a challenge so early in the game, when they both believed Stecker was clearly down.

On the first play of the drive, Brad Johnson completed an 11-yard pass to wide receiver [[Joe Jurevicius]]. Johnson's next two passes were incomplete, but he then completed a 23-yard pass to Jurevicius on 3rd-and-10 to advance the ball to the Oakland 37-yard line. Running back [[Michael Pittman Sr.|Michael Pittman]] then rushed for a 23-yard gain to the 13-yard line. However, on the next three plays, the Raiders' defense limited the Buccaneers to a pair of incompletions and a 1-yard run by Stecker. Kicker [[Martín Gramática]] then made a 31-yard field goal to tie the game, 3–3. After the teams exchanged punts twice, with less than two minutes left in the quarter, a 17-yard punt return by cornerback [[Darrien Gordon]] gave Oakland the ball at their own 49-yard line. Gannon then threw an 8-yard pass to running back [[Charlie Garner]] to reach the Tampa Bay 43-yard line. However, on third down, safety [[Dexter Jackson (safety)|Dexter Jackson]] intercepted Gannon's pass at the 40-yard line and returned it 9 yards to near midfield.

===Second quarter===
Nine plays after the turnover, Gramática kicked his second field goal from 43 yards to give Tampa Bay a 6–3 lead.

Jackson intercepted another pass on the Raiders' next drive and returned it 25 yards to the Oakland 45-yard line, making him the first player ever to record two interceptions in the first half of the Super Bowl. However, the Buccaneers were unable to take advantage of the turnover and were forced to punt. Tampa Bay got a big assist from their punter [[Tom Tupa]], who managed to pin Oakland all the way back at their own 11-yard line. The Raiders could not move the ball either, losing a yard on three plays with their ensuing drive. Tampa Bay wide receiver [[Karl Williams]] then returned [[Shane Lechler]]'s punt 25 yards, giving the Buccaneers great field position at Oakland's 27-yard line. Aided by Pittman's gains of 6 and 19 yards, the Buccaneers scored the first touchdown of the game on a 2-yard run by fullback [[Mike Alstott]], increasing their lead to 13–3. After forcing the Raiders to punt, with 3:45 left in the half, Tampa Bay drove 77 yards in nine plays, assisted by a pair of catches by Alstott for 28 yards and four runs by Pittman for 20 yards. Johnson finished the drive with a 5-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver [[Keenan McCardell]] to give the Buccaneers a 20–3 halftime lead.

===Third quarter===
Tampa Bay continued to dominate the game for most of the third quarter. The Buccaneers forced the Raiders to punt on the opening drive of the second half. Next, Tampa Bay marched 89 yards on a 14-play drive, which was highlighted by Johnson's two passes to Jurevicius for 44 yards and took 7:52 off the clock. The drive ended with Johnson's 8-yard touchdown pass to McCardell to increase their lead to 27–3. Then on the second play of Oakland's ensuing drive, Buccaneers safety [[Dwight Smith (American football)|Dwight Smith]] intercepted Gannon's pass and returned it 44 yards for a touchdown, making the score 34–3 in favor of Tampa Bay.<ref name="PFR">{{cite web|title=Tampa Bay Buccaneers 48 vs. Oakland Raiders 21|url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200301260rai.htm|publisher=pro-football-reference|access-date=August 27, 2012}}</ref>

After giving up 34 consecutive points, Oakland finally managed to drive 82 yards down the field, aided by a 25-yard reception by tight end [[Doug Jolley]]. The drive ended with a 39-yard touchdown completion from Gannon to wide receiver [[Jerry Porter (American football)|Jerry Porter]]. Although he was initially ruled as being out of bounds, the Raiders challenged the call, and it was determined that Porter had both feet in the end zone when he caught the ball.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Cunningham|first1=Michael|last2=Skolnick |first2=Ethan J.|title=Treu Gets The Call In Robbins' Absence|url=http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2003-01-27/sports/0301270124_1_barret-robbins-adam-treu-raiders|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130730155010/http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2003-01-27/sports/0301270124_1_barret-robbins-adam-treu-raiders|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 30, 2013|access-date=August 27, 2012|newspaper=South Florida Sun-Sentinel|date=January 27, 2003}}</ref> Gannon was sacked by Simeon Rice on the [[two-point conversion]] attempt, but the Raiders had cut their deficit to 34–9.

===Fourth quarter===
The Raiders' touchdown seemed to fire up their defense, who forced the Buccaneers to a fourth down on their ensuing possession. On the second play of the final quarter, Oakland linebacker [[Tim Johnson (linebacker)|Tim Johnson]] blocked Tupa's punt, and the ball flew high into the air and into the arms of Eric Johnson, who returned it 13 yards for a touchdown. Another two-point conversion failed when Gannon threw the ball over wide receiver [[Tim Brown (American football)|Tim Brown]]'s head, but Tampa Bay's lead was cut to 34–15.<ref name="PFR"/>

Tampa Bay responded by moving the ball to the Oakland 9-yard line on their ensuing drive, featuring a 16-yard pass interference penalty against Woodson and a 24-yard run by Pittman, but during a 27-yard field goal attempt by Gramática, Tupa fumbled the snap, and Gramática attempted to run the ball himself before getting tackled by cornerback [[Tory James]], giving the ball to Oakland on their own 22-yard line. After completing two passes to Jolley for 23 yards, Gannon threw a 48-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver [[Jerry Rice]] with 6:06 left in the game, cutting the Raiders' deficit to 34–21 and were only two touchdowns away from taking the lead. Oakland's two-point conversion failed for the third straight time when Porter caught the ball out of bounds after being forced out by linebacker [[Nate Webster]], but the officials deemed no interference, and therefore that part of the play was non-reviewable. Nonetheless, Oakland challenged the call, but the ruling stood, and they were charged a timeout.<ref name="Bucs stop here">{{cite news|title=Bucs stop here — with a Super Bowl title|url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/super/2003-01-26-super-bowl-running_x.htm|access-date=August 27, 2012|newspaper=USA Today|date=January 26, 2003}}</ref>

In an attempt to prevent a Raiders comeback, the Buccaneers managed to run the clock down to 2:44 on their ensuing drive before being forced to punt. Then on 3rd-and-18 from the Oakland 29-yard line, linebacker [[Derrick Brooks]] cemented the Buccaneers' first Super Bowl title by intercepting a Gannon pass intended for wide receiver [[Marcus Knight]] and returning it 44 yards for a touchdown, giving the Buccaneers a 41–21 lead with only 1:18 left, and leading Buccaneers radio announcer [[Gene Deckerhoff]] to make his famous call: "The dagger's in, we're gonna win the Super Bowl!".<ref name="PFR"/> Five plays later, Smith intercepted another pass, which was deflected by defensive end [[Greg Spires]], and returned it 50 yards for his second touchdown of the game with only two seconds remaining, capping off the scoring at 48–21.<ref name="Bucs stop here"/> Smith's two pick sixes made him the first player in Super Bowl history to score two defensive touchdowns.

===Statistical overview===
Tampa Bay dominated Oakland, out-gaining them in total yards (365–269), rushing yards (150–19), first downs (24–11), offensive plays (76–60), and forced turnovers (5–1). As many sports fans and writers predicted, Gruden's prior knowledge of the Raiders was a major factor. The most damaging piece of evidence is [[NFL Films]] footage of Tampa Bay defensive back [[John Lynch (American football)|John Lynch]] telling his teammates during the game that almost all of the plays ran by Oakland's offense were plays that Gruden (who that week even played the part of "Rich Gannon" by playing quarterback with the scout-team offense) specifically told them to look out for.<ref name="best laid plans">{{cite news| url=http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/dan_pompei/20030127.html| work=The Sporting News | title=The best-laid plans: an inside look at how coach Jon Gruden and the Bucs prepared themselves to be Super Bowl champions | first=Dan | last=Pompei | date=January 27, 2003|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030819203905/http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/dan_pompei/20030127.html|archive-date=August 19, 2003}}</ref> Better still for the Buccaneers was that Oakland hadn't changed their audible-calling signals that Gruden himself had installed, thus tipping off plays repeatedly.

Johnson finished the game with 18 out of 34 completions for 215 yards and 2 touchdowns, with 1 interception, along with 10 rushing yards. Pittman was the top rusher of the game with 129 yards. Alstott was the game's second leading rusher with 15 yards and a touchdown, and had 5 receptions for 43 yards. [[Joe Jurevicius]] was the game's leading receiver with 4 receptions for 78 yards. [[Keyshawn Johnson]] recorded 6 catches for 69 yards. Smith recorded 2 interceptions, 94 return yards, and 2 touchdowns. He also added another 23 yards on a kickoff return.

Gannon finished the game 24 out of 44 for 272 yards and 2 touchdowns, but was intercepted a Super Bowl record 5 times for a 48.9 passer rating. Garner was their leading rusher, but with only 10 yards, and caught 7 passes for 51 yards. Rice was the Raiders' leading receiver of the game with 5 catches for 77 yards and a touchdown. He became the first player to score touchdowns with two teams in Super Bowls ([[Ricky Proehl]], [[Rob Gronkowski]], and [[Muhsin Muhammad]] have since joined him). Wide receiver [[Marcus Knight]] returned 8 kickoffs for 143 yards.

[[Jerry Rice]] and [[Bill Romanowski]] joined [[Gene Upshaw]] as the only players to appear in Super Bowls in three decades. Rice played in Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XXIII|XXIII]], [[Super Bowl XXIV|XXIV]], and [[Super Bowl XXIX|XXIX]]. Romanowski played in Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XXIII|XXIII]], [[Super Bowl XXIV|XXIV]], [[Super Bowl XXXII|XXXII]], and [[Super Bowl XXXIII|XXXIII]]; the Raiders' loss prevented Romanowski from joining [[Charles Haley]] as the only NFL players at that time to earn 5 Super Bowl rings (Haley was also with the 49ers for Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XXIII|XXIII]] and [[Super Bowl XXIV|XXIV]], and later earned rings when the Dallas Cowboys won Super Bowls [[Super Bowl XXVII|XXVII]], [[Super Bowl XXVIII|XXVIII]], and [[Super Bowl XXX|XXX]]). The Raiders became the first team to appear in Super Bowls under four head coaches. [[John Rauch]] coached them in [[Super Bowl II]], [[John Madden]] (who himself called Super Bowl XXXVII on ABC), coached them in [[Super Bowl XI]] and [[Tom Flores]] coached them in [[Super Bowl XV]] and [[Super Bowl XVIII|XVIII]].

The teams combined for the most second half points in a Super Bowl with 46 (28 for Tampa Bay and 18 for Oakland) and the third most total points in a game with 69, tying Dallas and Buffalo who combined for 69 points in [[Super Bowl XXVII]].

==Post-game riots==
In Oakland, after the Raiders' loss, [[riots]] broke out on the streets of [[East Oakland, Oakland, California|East Oakland]].

==Aftermath==
''[[The Tampa Tribune]]'' published a book by several staff writers called ''Pewter Power'' about the Buccaneers' winning season.

In January 2013, retired Raiders receiver [[Tim Brown (American football)|Tim Brown]] accused coach [[Bill Callahan (American football coach)|Bill Callahan]] of deliberately throwing the game, stating that Callahan originally planned the Raiders' strategy around running the ball, since Oakland's offensive line outweighed Tampa Bay's defensive line by a significant amount.  However, Brown claimed Callahan changed the game plan to a more pass-heavy strategy two days before the game.  While Brown stopped short of saying he was sure Callahan ruined their game plan on purpose, he said, "But the facts are what they are, that less than 36 hours before the game we changed our game plan.  And we go into that game absolutely knowing that we have no shot.  That the only shot we had if Tampa Bay didn't show up."<ref name="profootballtalk.nbcsports.com">{{Cite web |date=2013-01-21 |title=Tim Brown suggests "sabotage" by Bill Callahan in Super Bowl XXXVII |url=https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/tim-brown-suggests-sabotage-by-bill-callahan-in-super-bowl-xxxvi |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=NBC Sports |language=en-US}}</ref>  Brown also suggested the change contributed to Barret Robbins' mental breakdown, saying "Barret Robbins begged Coach Callahan, 'Do not do this to me.  I don't have time to make my calls, to get my calls ready.  You can't do this to me on Friday.  We haven't practiced full speed, we can't get this done.  I'm not saying one had anything to do with the other.  All I'm saying is those are the facts of what happened Super Bowl week.  So our ire wasn't towards Barret Robbins, it was towards Bill Callahan.  Because we feel as if he wouldn't have did what he did, then Barret wouldn't have done what he did."<ref name="profootballtalk.nbcsports.com" />

[[Jerry Rice]] echoed Brown's concerns, saying "For some reason - and I don't know why - Bill Callahan did not like me." "In a way, maybe because he didn't like the Raiders, he decided, 'Maybe we should sabotage this a little bit and let Jon Gruden go out and win this one."<ref name="sbnation.com">{{Cite web |last=Sandritter |first=Mark |date=2013-01-22 |title=Jerry Rice calls out Callahan |url=https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/1/22/3904664/tim-brown-super-bowl-bill-callahan-jerry-rice |access-date=2024-06-17 |website=SBNation.com |language=en}}</ref> Raiders linebacker [[Bill Romanowski]] disagreed, calling Brown's accusations "delusional".<ref name="sbnation.com" />

"I am shocked, saddened and outraged by Tim Brown's allegations and Jerry Rice's support of those allegations," Callahan replied. "To leave no doubt, I categorically and unequivocally deny the sum and substance of their allegation. To suggest otherwise, especially at this time when it involves the Super Bowl, is ludicrous and defamatory.  Any suggestion that I would undermine the integrity of the sport that I love and dedicated my life to, or dishonor the commitment I made to our players, coaches and fans, is flat out wrong. I think it would be in the best interests of all including the game America loves that these allegations be retracted immediately."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Verderame |first=Matt |date=2013-01-23 |title=Callahan rips ex-players |url=https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/1/23/3906796/bill-callahan-shocked-super-bowl-allegations-sabotage |access-date=2024-06-07 |website=SBNation.com |language=en}}</ref>
