Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Detroit Lions Preview
The Buccaneers have a serious opportunity to secure their Wild Card spot when they meet a Lions team that has won only one of its last five games.
Tampa Bay boosted its chances enormously last week with a comeback win over the Falcons, but they’ll be eager to avoid the same defensive mishaps that gifted Atlanta a 21-point lead to begin with.
Detroit has nothing left to play for at this point and it is difficult to see them winning this game with Matthew Stafford still far from 100%.
Defensively the Lions have allowed the most points in the league, which doesn’t exactly stack up against a Bucs team that ranks seventh in the same category offensively.
The Bucs tore apart the Lions when they met last season 38-17 and they are also 5-1 in their last six games on the road.
Like most of Bruce Arians’ offensive systems, the Bucs live by the sword and die by the sword, which should cause a number of problems for Detroit’s depleted secondary.
