During the Detroit Lions Week 5 bye, my good friend Meko Scott posted a poll to Twitter asking fans what game they would like to see broken down while the Lions are getting their rest in. And while it was close for a while, the vote ended up with the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers being the winner.
For obvious reasons, the game against Tampa Bay was not the most pleasant game to revisit. Despite leading in most statistics confined within a box score, the Lions’ 1-of-7 performance in the red zone was the biggest reason they ended up with their only loss of the season so far.
