The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to face off against an old NFC Central rival on Sunday.
The Bucs are 3-1 and heading off the bye week for Sunday’s Week 6 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Tampa Bay was looking hurt heading into the bye week, but the injury report on Wednesday looked as if the team may get quite a few pieces back and ready to play in the Bucs’ “creamsicle” game that will feature throwback uniforms.
The Lions, meanwhile, have had an almost perfect start. The team is 4-1 with a loss to just the 3-1 Seattle Seahawks in overtime and have looked like a dominant, well-rounded team across the first five weeks of the season. Like the Eagles, the Lions could be a Super Bowl contender, so this will be a tough matchup for Tampa Bay.
According to BetMGM, the Lions are three-point favorites against the Bucs on Sunday. The over-under is set at 43.5.
Will the Bucs continue their hot streak and prove that they can contend with the best NFL teams? Or will the Lions be too much to handle for Tampa Bay?
