The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Detroit Lions meet in NFL action from Ford Field on Sunday.

Over on the Lions’ side, they’re 3-9-1 this season. Detroit has lost their last six straight games, dropping to the Raiders, Bears, Cowboys, Redskins, Bears again, and Lions in that time. 

In the loss to Minnesota, Detroit’s David Blough put up 205 yards with a TD and two INTs, and Bo Scarbrough had 65 rush yards. Kenny Golladay added 58 yards and a TD on six catches. 

The Bucs are 4-0-1 ATS in their last five in December and 4-1 ATS in their last five in Week 15. Tampa is 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine overall and 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine as a favorite. 

Meanwhile, the Lions are 1-4 ATS in their last five on turf and 1-5 ATS in their last six after an ATS loss. Detroit is 1-6 ATS in their last seven versus the NFC and 1-7 ATS in their last eight overall. 

Tampa put up a nice effort against a plucky Colts team in their last outing, snatching that three-point victory away from Indy in a shootout. The Bucs have now put up 28 points or more in each of their last three games and they’re on a nice roll. 

As for Detroit, they’ve been playing some pretty uninspired football over their last half-dozen outings, and haven’t hit 21 points in any of their last three games. I’m going to stick with the Bucs here unless the line gets crazy later in the week.
