NFL Week 2 Odds & Picks: Buccaneers vs. Lions

Buccaneers vs. Lions

The schedule makers had some fun with the early season schedule for Detroit. In Week 1, they got a Playoff rematch with the Rams, and in Week 2, they’ll get another one with the Buccaneers. Tampa looked strong offensively, putting up 392 yards of total offense against Washington. Their 9.0 yards per attempt in the air was a big difference maker, but they only managed 3.7 yards per carry on the ground. When you consider that Washington was dead last in pass defense DVOA in 2023, the performance seems less impressive. They’ll take on a Detroit defense in Week 2 that is expected to be much improved from the nearly average unit last season. They gave up 304 yards to Matthew Stafford and the Rams last week, but it came on 49 passes, and Stafford was constantly under pressure even though he was getting rid of the ball quickly. Offensively, Detroit imposed their will on the ground when they didn’t look their best. A lot of steam has come in on Detroit this week, and I’ll also be backing them.

Pick: Lions -7.5
