EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Vinny Testaverde looked as comfortable in the pocket for the New York Jets on Sunday as he was watching them from his couch two weeks ago. And the New York Jets are one win the better for it. The Meadowlands crowd welcomed Testaverde back with rousing cheers and a standing ovation, and in the end, he deserved it: The 41-year-old quarterback led the Jets to a 14-12 win Sunday over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Of course, he needed a little help from his friends. Curtis Martin ran for two touchdowns and Testaverde looked sharp despite a nine-month layoff.
Matt Bryant kicked four field goals for the Bucs (4-1), who played without injured running back Carnell "Cadillac" Williams because of foot and hamstring injuries.
