    The Tampa Bay Buccaneers added to their reputation for fourth-quarter comebacks, even if they had to blow a 17-point lead to do it.

    Aqib Talib had two of Tampa's four interceptions, returning one 45 yards for a touchdown and saving the game with the other, and the Bucs came from behind in the final quarter for the fourth time this season in a 38-35 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.

    "It was just one of them days," Talib said, "right place at the right time."

    The Bucs (5-2) won their fifth straight on the road dating to last season and moved into a tie with idle Atlanta for first in the NFC South. The leaders play next Sunday at Atlanta.

    Josh Freeman's 53-yard pass to rookie Arrelious Benn set up LeGarrette Blount's 1-yard run for what proved to be the winning score with 5:13 left. Freeman has six fourth-quarter comebacks in 16 career starts.
