Detroit Lions at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Line: Buccaneers by 1. Total: 41
If the Buccaneers want to win this game, they'll have to establish LeGarrette Blount. Detroit is susceptible against the run, so if it begins focusing on containing Blount, Freeman should be able to beat the Lions' sorry secondary with some play-action fakes. Tampa’s QB Josh Freeman struggle with his decision-making. Freeman really had issues reading the blitz against the Patriots in Week 2, and then went on to make some terrible passes into double coverage the following game.

Cletus says: Lions by 10. Sorry prognosticators but the secondary is up to the task and CJ could lead the league in scoring. Watch them pussycats growl into the playoffs this year (and lose in the first round).

I’ll try to keep all of you in mind regarding my posts on the Lions this season.

When cut, I bleed Honolulu Blue and Silver.

The NFC is pretty weak this year....if somehow the Lions can beat out the Packers and win the division, they could go a long way. The NFC East and NFC West, might both have division winners with 8-8 records. I think the teams from the two other divisions that should make the playoffs will be Green Bay, Detroit, Atlanta and New Orleans. I think it's anybody's ballgame from there.
