The Lions look to stay undefeated at home when they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Ford Field. The Lions, who have won home games against the division-rival Vikings and Bears this season, are coming off a bye following a 34-3 Week Five loss to the Redskins at Washington. At 3-and-2 overall, Detroit is in second place in the NFC North, a game-and-a-half behind 5-and-1 Green Bay. Tampa Bay is tied atop the NFC South with Carolina at 4-and-2 after last Sunday’s 13-10 home victory over the Tennessee Titans. Only the winless Rams have allowed more points in the NFC than the Lions so far this season, while the Bucs have allowed the third-fewest in the conference. Tampa beat Detroit 17-13 in 2005.
