Buccaneers vs. Lions: 6 players to keep an eye on

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had a much more successful preseason this year than they did last year.

In 2017, the Bucs offense in the preseason was anemic scoring only 43 points. This year they have put up 56 in just two contests. While these games don’t mean anything, the offense has shown excellent signs early on.

While the defense hasn’t blown anybody away, it’s held teams in check but has been prone to penalties and mental mistakes. This week they are taking on the Detroit Lions. The Lions are currently 0-2, but quarterback Matthew Stafford only has five pass attempts.
