SAN DIEGO —- Seconds before he would make a leaping interception in the end zone to clinch the Bucs' 28-21 win Sunday, S Keith Tandy told teammate Vernon Hargreaves exactly what play was coming based on the alignment he saw from the Chargers offense.

"I told Hargreaves, 'Watch this route,' and they ran the exact route," said Tandy, who picked off Philip Rivers with 2:50 left after the Chargers drove to the Bucs 31.
