Rondé Barber's unforgettable pick-six in the 2002 NFC Championship Game to silence Veterans Stadium and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to their first Super Bowl has been selected by thousands of fan votes as the Top Moment in franchise history. It had to beat out a field of 63 other memorable players, plays, games and trophies thrown over open water to take the crown, but specifically it won four head-to-head battles to make it to the Final Four.
First, Barber's 92-yard sprint beat out an even longer play, the team-record 98-yard touchdown run by Ronald Jones against Carolina during the Bucs' other Super Bowl season, in 2020. That led to a matchup with the Buccaneers' 1982 season finale, in which Doug Williams led a 17-point comeback to beat Chicago in overtime and clinch a playoff spot. Wi
