Joe would tell you knowing that is half the battle jir Gibbs gets his toes too Gibs inside turning it twisting put the ball go at the goal line let's see who they're going to call here after review it is a touchdown Gibbs didn't blow the doors off the stat sheet just 3.6 a carry only 34 receiving yards too he's a threat there too though and that was still more than their number one pass catcher amanra St Brown who started with a quiet 13 yards but that was more than Matt leapa or jamus Williamson at least still Jared goff's inability to connect with Numero Uno slowed him down just 217 yards one TD picked off sub 90 rate wasn't his best day trying to get it to Alan R st Brown it's Fourth and short bucks Corners do have jameon Williams to worry about and he blew up last week over 120 yards in the TD reminder this kid was supposed to bring Tyreek Vibes to the Lions I mean sans's Ponch and John the shot down field for Williams who's open J 's got it to the end zone touchdown Detroit the Tampa Bay cornerback St Brown and Williams take on Christian iian Jamal Dean all showed out well last week Tampa Bay held Terry McClaren under 20 yards no wide receiver had 20 yards against them well defended by Tampa Bay they did lose cornerback Bryce Hall to injury and even more alarming stud safety Antoine Winfield who would have been involved with tight end Sam leaport four catches last week 45 yards wide open it's a tight end Sam leapa good move in the open field leapa to the 10yd line Buccaneers didn't have any problem with tight ends or quarterbacks really they held Jaden Daniels to 184 yards no touchdowns Daniels over the middle in all kinds of traffic and that's incomplete most of the Yards they gave up were the running backs so that could be problematic with Gibbs more to it than that you guys fill out the rest in the comments section biggest key in your mind what is it who takes it and what's the score bucks up 33 to 29 in the alltime series versus Detroit first time they ever played 1977 16-7 Lions win Lions sealing the win with a pick six and forces an off Target throw safety Reggie Pinkney intercepts [Music] a
