It's not something they want to try every week, but the Bucs staged a thrilling, come-from-behind, overtime victory Sunday by throwing the ball. And throwing it. Quarterback Brian Griese overcame three interceptions to rally the Bucs from a 10-point, fourth-quarter deficit against Chicago, the team that traded him to Tampa Bay in the offseason. He attempted a Buccaneer franchise-record 67 passes. He outdueled Chicago's Kyle Orton, completing 38 for 407 yards, both career highs. He threw two touchdowns, including one that tied the game with seven seconds left in regulation. STORY, BUCS BONUS
