Luck

That they got lucky the Buccaneers suddenly started to turnover the ball.  That they got lucky that Stevenson fumbled.  And of course, we got lucky that McPherson kicked all those field goals in last year's post-season.

Well to quote the great Roman philosopher Seneca- Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity

They were "lucky" because those players worked their a**es off in practice learning the playbook, learning their techniques, learning where to be at any given time.  The coaches worked their a**es off teaching these players and putting together a game plan.  And as usual, were flexible enough to make some killer adjustments at halftime.

Those turnovers weren't gifts from the opposing team.  They were taken by a greedy and determined defense.
