**NFC Divisional Round - Bucs at Lions** (-6, 48.5) Kickoff Sun 3:00 (1 Viewer)

[BobbyLayne]

Fairly even 1st half statistically
Bucs with slight edge in TOP (15:37-14:23), 1st downs (11-10)
Bucs with almost 100 yards more in total yards though

We’re trying to wear down their offense

 

[Capella]

Well the Bucs are in it. Feel like Detroit is better but we are hanging around.

 

[massraider]

Both teams look like they came to play. Can't say that about last week

Great defense can win championships.

You're a dropped INT and a missed FG from being up 2 scores. This is Tampa's game for the taking. A TD to start the half is going to put huge pressure on Goff. Bowles will feel that and send something Goff has never seen before. Bet.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

This is the time for Ben Johnson to show why he's such a popular head coaching prospect.

 

[Chaos34]

I use halftime to watch parts of the 1st half again. Good chess match with Goff and Winfield. Antoine staying out of the box, not blitzing, practically playing prevent free safety. It's a twist leaving those plays over the middle to LaPorta wide open, but denying any big plays. Antoine hasn't put his mark on this game but he's set up to. Ben Johnson is no fool, so... chess match. Antoine's coming though.

So true. Lions lose this game, suddenly none of the fans want him any more.

Dood, they only scored 20 vs the Bucs!!

 

[jon_mx]

Lions can't cover anyone man to man.

 

[Chaos34]

Lookie there. Baker with a little touch for a change.

 

[Chaos34]

Lions can't cover anyone man to man.

I really don't care who wins this, but I am having difficulty imagining the Detroit D against SF.

 

[Alex P Keaton]

R White looking like Lev Bell out there right now

 

[jon_mx]

Hutch unblocked.

 

[rockaction]

Why is nobody blocking Hutchinson?

 

[kface]

Bucs are so stupid and making so many stupid mistakes

That is a problem...

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Why is nobody blocking Hutchinson?

Exactly

 

[rockaction]

Jeez, you could have just let that go and had it at the twenty. Now you're at the ten or so.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Detroit has one pass rusher. Let’s not block that guy……

 

[IvanKaramazov]

I like Collinsworth. Give me corny and authentic over another corporate drone.

(I know he dislikes my favorite team, but again, give me the guy with authentic opinions. I'm a big boy and I can handle a little criticism during the broadcast.)

 

[rockaction]

I know I'm old. I see that Toyota commercial and think, "Jeez. Does the NFL need to encourage every teenage yahoo to street race?"

 

[jon_mx]

Detroit tried that strategy against Crosby. It did not work too well either.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Detroit has one pass rusher. Let’s not block that guy……

Hopefully they continue with that plan

 

[BobbyLayne]

White 8-59
Bucs 13-89 as a team

no RB has run for more than 69 yards v DET this year

---

Offense has only 134 yards and is averaging less than 4 yards per play

(35-134-3.8)

I'm weird. I enjoy all the play by play and color guys. ALL of them.

 

[jon_mx]

Jonah Jackson out

 

[BobbyLayne]

just out of sync today

14/24 57.1% 14/25 56%

on the year JG is well over 67%

 

[jon_mx]

Dumb foul on Montgomery.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Monty

x2

Plus, he was smart enough to buy PFF so.....guy knows his stuff.

 

[BobbyLayne]

boy not good rn

 

[IvanKaramazov]

That's an incredibly weak "chop block" given the severity of the penalty.

 

[kface]

Laporta got up real slow there

 

[Chaos34]

Winfield finally blitzed. Got stoned. Izien will be a good idp next year if you use dedicated corners.

 

[BobbyLayne]

26 drop backs 102 net yards passing

 

[jon_mx]

Game is not shaping up too well for the Lions. Goff is out of sync. Defense is showing weakness.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Laporta got up real slow there

toradol wearing off

 

[jon_mx]

Nice blitz by Branch.

 

[TheAristocrat]

I hate commercials and only really see them during NFL games. But you could sell me on watching Idris Elba more often.

 

[Chaos34]

Game is not shaping up too well for the Lions. Goff is out of sync. Defense is showing weakness.

Hang in there Lions fans. It wouldn't be Detroit if it was easy.

 

[BobbyLayne]

finally a good run stop

 

[BobbyLayne]

let's get a 3 n out here

 

[BobbyLayne]

alright good job D

 

[belljr]

As much as I thought Mayfield was a tool coming into the league, I'm now happy for his resurgence

 

[TartanLion]

Good job D. Time for the O to go and do something

 

[Cowboysfan8]

If that’s not taunting…what is??

 

[FarFromHome]

Game is not shaping up too well for the Lions. Goff is out of sync. Defense is showing weakness.

Hang in there Lions fans. It wouldn't be Detroit if it was easy.

Bingo

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Todd has the best sour face.

 

[Zeppelin]

Important 3-and-out there.

 

[FarFromHome]

I'm feeling a sun god drive coming up.
