Detroit Lions vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Storylines

The Detroit Lions managed to compete vs. the Tennessee Titans behind Matthew Stafford's relentless play but their defense just couldn't keep them out of the endzone, which has been the story of the season.

The Lions have shown glimpses of improvement over the past couple of weeks but are still a couple of pieces away from contention. Now, they're likely planning ahead to the draft and next season.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got another close win filled with controversies, as some people believe that the referees helped them out to complete a comeback after a terrible start vs. the Atlanta Falcons.

Tom Brady continues to be under the radar after some inconsistent play this season. Also, their defense has struggled to get stops in the first half in many games, and that trend is definitely something to be worried about.
