Detroit Lions vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Preview

Perhaps Detroit’s first up victory over the LA Rams was a bit more stressful than it needed to be, but there was a lot to like about it.

Mostly with the game on the line, Dan Campbell just decided to do away with the finesse and opted to lean on his running game to batter the Rams defence into submission.

Now they will start as clear favourites over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and this could be a game that follows a similar script.

Tampa has the firepower to keep pace with Detroit and Baker Mayfield got his season off to a strong start throwing for four touchdowns in a win over the Commanders.

Chances are that will stop Detroit from running away with the game, literally and figuratively because you can hurt the Lions in the air.

But I’m not taking Detroit on, instead backing them to win a tight game looks like the way to go.
