Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Detroit Lions Game Highlights | NFL 2023 Divisional Round

THIS TAMPA DEFENSE. >> VITA VEA.

>> LAVONTE DAVID. >> SHAQUIL BARRETT, COLORADO

STATE. >> JAMEL DEAN, AUBURN.

>> ANTOINE WINFIELD JR., MINNESOTA.

>> RYAN NEAL, SIU. >> CARLTON DAVIS, AUBURN. PITTSBURGH THREE YEARS AGO. CLEVELAND, CAROLINA, THE RAMS

LAST YEAR. HE’S FOUND A HOME IN TAMPA.

HE’S A FREE AGENT AFTER THIS YEAR. THEY WOULD LOVE TO KEEP HIM. WHITE, RACHAAD WHITE AND MORE.

>> IFEATU MELIFONWU, SYRACUSE. >> KINDLE VILDOR. >> Mike: THE SECONDARY GAVE UP 425 TO THE RAMS.

WHY THEY WON THE GAME, THEY STOPPED L.A. IN THE RED ZONE ALL THREE TRIPS. COULD BE A DIFFERENCE MAKER IN

THIS ONE. SECOND DOWN, BAKER — IN TROUBLE HE TAKES MORE SACKS THAN TOM BRADY, BUT NOW YOU’VE AWAKENED

THE CROWD AND YOU DEAL WITH THIS.

>> Mike: MELIFONWU’S BLITZING BECAME A BIG PART OF HIS

SUCCESS. MAYFIELD IN THE MIDDLE,

DEFLECTED AND INTERCEPTED INTO THE HANDS OF C.J. RUN, AND THEN WE REALLY HAVEN’T SEEN BUT ONE PRESSURE SO FAR

THIS GAME. SO WE’LL SEE — HE’S KNOWN FOR THAT PART OF BEING A DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR AND PLAY CALLER OUT

THERE. >> Mike: SECOND AND TEN, GOFF IN

>> Mike: THE PRELIMINARY INDICATION WAS A FACEMASK. WE’LL WAIT AND SEE. WE’RE MARCHING CLOSER TO THE

TAMPA END. >> Referee: PERSONAL FOUL,

FACEMASK. DEFENSE, NUMBER 27.

BLOCKING AND SUCH, BUT THE ABILITY OF GIBBS TO STRETCH THIS TAMPA DEFENSE FROM BOUNDARY TO BOUNDARY IS A VERY DEFINITE

CONCERN. >> Mike: TWO TIGHT ENDS, SECOND

THOSE GUYS, JUST BE CAREFUL. >> Mike: LURKING.

>> Cris: HE WILL UNDERCUT A LOT OF ROUTES. THE THUMPER PAID OFF THERE TO PUT THAT ONE OUT OF THE END

ZONE. >> Mike: MICHAEL BADGLEY, WHO

HAD A VERY BIG 54-YARD FIELD GOAL IN THE WILD CARD WIN, A APPARENTLY THE BUCS DID AS WELL. THEY’VE BEEN TRYING TO WORK IT.

TO NO AVAIL. >> Mike: THOSE ARE THE CORNERS, SUTTON AND VILDOR. THE RECEIVERS OVER TO THE LEFT,

STRONG HANDS OF MIKE EVANS AND THEY REALLY NEED TO GET HIM

GOING. SIMPLY REMARKABLE.

LEAGUE, DON’T HAVE A GREAT UNDERSTANDING FROM THE SLOT OF HOW TO SETTLE IN THOSE ZONES. BEEN WATCHING HIM ALL WEEK.

HE DOES A GREAT JOB OF . >> Mike: PALMER STARTED AT LSU.

>> Cris: THE FIRST, NOT THE SECOND ONE. >> Mike: McLAUGHLIN, ONLY TWO MISSES THIS YEAR AND BOTH WERE

BLOCKED. THIS FROM 43.

AND I’M LOOKING AROUND, WE STILL HAVE GOOD PLAYERS IN HERE. EVERYBODY THINKS I’M SUCH A NICE GUY.

K.J. BRITT HAS TAKEN THE JOB AWAY FROM DEVIN WHITE. HE’S SO FAST AND RUNS SIDELINE TO SIDELINE.

IF YOU CAN STOP THE RUN GAME OF THE DETROIT LILIONS, NOW YOU HA A CHANCE AGAINST THE PLAY-ACTION THAT THEY DO SO WELL.

THE PISTONS, WITHIN FOUR BLOCKS DOWNTOWN. SECOND QUARTER BEGINS. GOFF AND THE LIONS THIRD AND

FOUR. TO MAKE IT INTO THE GAME. BEEN WATCHING HIM IN PRACTICE,

JUST LOOKED LIKE HE WAS FEELING GREAT.

JOB. THEY DID A GOOD JOB AGAINST THE

RAMS LAST WEEK SCORING TOUCHDOWNS.

>> Cris: SURE DID. >> Mike: THIRD AND FIVE, GOFF,

END ZONE! TOUCHDOWN!

THE INTERESTING THING WAS HE PICKED A GUY THAT WASN’T EVEN IN COVERAGE ON THE CROSSING ROUTE. >> Mike: THIRD AND 15.

THE LIONS BRING THREE, DROP EIGHT.

LONG WAY TO GO FOR EDMONDS. HE ALMOST GOT THERE AGAIN. ALL RIGHT, FINE. NOBODY LEFT, LET ME TAKE OFF.

I JUST FEEL JARED GOFF IN A WAY I’VE NEVER SEEN HIM IN HIS CAREER, FEELS CALM AND IS MAKING EASY DECISIONS LOOK EASY.

IT WASN’T THAT WAY ALL THE TIME. LET ME SAY THAT. IF YOU DON’T HAVE ANYBODY TO HATE, YOU HAVE TO FIND SOMEBODY.

THAT’S WHAT COACHES DO. TRY TO STIR THE POT AND GIVE YOU THAT LITTLE CHIP. >> Mike: THE LEFT GUARD FROM THE

LIONS CAME OUT ON THAT PLAY. GOFF THROWS INSIDE.

PLAYED WITH. HE’S A GUY THAT WILL JUMP

ROUTES. HE WANTS INTERCEPTIONS.

HE WANTS TO MAKE THE QUARTERBACK LOOK BAD.

AND SO FAR HE HAS. >> Mike: QUICK COUNT, THIRD AND ONE WIN SHY OF THE PLAYOFFS LAST YEAR TO TWO WINS FROM THE SUPER

BOWL RIGHT NOW. A LONG WAY TO GO IN THIS ONE.

THE BUCCANEERS THREE FIRST DOWNS SO FAR. HOURS, AARON GLENN, DETROIT. DAVE CANALES, TAMPA.

>> Cris: THE BUCS NEED A PLAY. NOT BIG NUMBERS AS A RUNNER BUT AS A RECEIVER, HE’S DONE VERY

WELL. >> Mike: ONLY CHRISTIAN

McCAFFREY HAS TOUCHED THE BALL MORE. McCAFFREY AND THE NINERS AWAIT THE WINNER OF THIS GAME.

TALKED ABOUT IN THE OPEN. THE BUCS ARE PROBABLY BETTER THROWING FROM THIS PART OF THE FIELD AND THEY HAVE ONE-ON-ONES

SOMETIMES A LITTLE TOUCH RIGHT THERE HELPS THE CAUSE.

>> Mike: CHASE McLAUGHLIN. 50 EVEN.

>> Cris: THIS IS THE PLAY TO DECIDE IF THE TIME-OUTS WILL START TO BE USED OR NOT. >> Mike: THE CLOCK RESTARTS

BECAUSE THE PLAY ENDED INBOUNDS, THIRD AND A LONG ONE, TWO FOR GO AND STAY HURRY UP? IF YOU THROW TWO MORE QUICK PASSES AND HAVE TO PUNT, YOU’RE GIVING THE LIONS ANOTHER CHANCE.

SEE IF IT’S A FIRST DOWN ARNDT. RUNNING THE BALL IN TO TRY TO GET IT MARKED. PALMER HAD THE KNEE DOWN, HAD

THE CATCH. HE SHOULD BE RIGHT AT THE FIRST >> Cris: A GREAT JOB BY BAKER MAYFIELD, THAT PUMP FAKE WAS

JUST GOOD ENOUGH TO MOVE THEM OUT.

IT WOULD FEEL GOOD TO GET THE BALL TO START THE SECOND HALF. >> Mike: NEED ANOTHER 20 YARDS OR SO TO BE WITHIN THE RANGE OF

McLAUGHLIN. MAYFIELD, SIDELINE SHOT. >> Cris: I’M NOT SURE EXACTLY HOW HE WAS ABLE TO GET OUTSIDE

SO EASILY. YOU SEE THE MISSED JAM ON THAT

ONE AND GREAT JOB BY BAKER SEEING IT SO QUICKLY. >> Mike: MAYFIELD TAKES A DEEP SHOT NOW FOR EVANS!

>> Mike: AND DON’T FORGET THE CATCH BY TROY PALMER THAT GOT THIS THING GOING. >> Cris: NOT A GREAT RUNNING

TEAM. IT WILL BE INTERESTING WHAT THEY

DO IN THIS SITUATION. EVANS IN THE SLOT, ONE-ON-ONE. >> Mike: MAYFIELD TO OTTON! FLAG DOWN, OTTON, FEET DOWN.

TOUCHDOWN OR NOT. IT LOOKED LIKE OTTON GOT BOTH

FEET DOWN. >> Cris: YOU HAD A PICK PLAY FOR

SURE INSIDE. IT’S JUST WHETHER IT’S IN 1 YARD

COMPLETELY TURNED THIS FOOTBALL GAME. >> Mike: FIVE POSSESSIONS IN THE FIRST HALF FOR THE BUCS, A

TURNOVER, PUNT AND MISSED FIELD GOAL. BAKER MAYFIELD TO THE 25. STANDING IN THE MIDDLE, TO THE

>> Mike: DEVEN THOMPKINS IS IN AND SO, TOO, IS TREY PALMER. A HUGE WRINKLE COMING. IT’S JUST WINDOW DRESSING FOR

WHAT’S WORKING. IT IS WHITE.

GODWIN THEIR FAVORITE TARGET. INSIDE CHASE EDMONDS. >> Mike: INTO A SLOT, THIRD AND FOUR, MAYFIELD IS BROUGHT DOWN

BY HUTCHINSON! HE DOUBLE CLUTCHED AND NOBODY YOU HAVE A LITTLE WRINKLE, THAT WILL REALLY MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.

>> Mike: THIRD AND ONE. THE PASS PLAY AND HITS THE TIGHT END, BROCK WRIGHT. RIGHT INTO THE SECONDARY, ALL

OH, HECK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO. YOU THINK YOU HAVE A BLOCKING TIGHT END, THEY FAKE IT, BRILLIANT CALL BY JOHNSON. >> Mike: JAHMYR GIBBS, IS THAT

ANOTHER. DETROIT, MICHIGAN. YES, THAT IS THE SUN, ONE OF THE THROW APPEARANCES FOR THE MONTH

OF JANUARY. DIABY WALKED OFF UNDER HIS OWN

POWER. JARED GOFF THROWING.

ELIGIBLE. >> Cris: HE LET HIM THROW ONE

PASS. NOW HE HAS —

SCORING OFF OF THAT. AGAIN, I PERSONALLY AM

SURPRISED. I THOUGHT THEY WOULD JUST POUND IT IN FROM THE 1 YARD LINE. >> Mike: FOURTH AND GOAL.

GREG REYNOLDS IS THE RUNNING BACK FOR THE LIONS.

GOFF! TOUCHDOWN, DETROIT!

BIG MISTAKES OR BIG PLAYS, HOWEVER YOU WANT TO LOOK AT IT, FROM THE DETROIT LIONS HAVE REALLY STOPPED SO MANY DRIVES

AND THE ONE WE STILL HAVE TO KEEP OUR EYE ON IS INSIDE NEAL. AND RIGHT NOW WE’VE SEEN HIM RIGHT IN THERE ON THE GUARD.

>> Mike: MAYFIELD HIT. GREAT JOB BY BAKER ON THE >> Mike: A GAIN OF 13, RACHAAD IT JUST GETS WILD AT SOME POINT. >> Mike: THAT WAS THE ONE THING

ON THAT PLAY, VERY, VERY CLOSE. THIRD AND TEN, BLITZ COMING! DIVISIONAL WITH YOU AND TO THE FANS OF DETROIT AND TAMPA, TWO FRANCHISES THAT HAVE SEEN THE BOTTOM, BOTH HAD WINLESS

SEASONS, THE BUCS THEIR FIRST YEAR SINCE 2006.

WISE. >> Cris: WITH THE PLAY-ACTION

PASS AND GO RIGHT BACK RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD. >> Mike: HE’S FROM MICHIGAN, NOT TOO FAR FROM HIM, PLAYED HIGH

SCHOOL BALL IN THE AREA AS WELL. HE’S OUT. SECOND AND TEN — INTO THE OPEN FIELD, TO THE END ZONE, HE’S IN

QUARTER OF THE SEASON. AND THAT WAS THE MOVE THAT HAS TIPPED IN HIS FAVOR.

>> Mike: IN MOTION TO WHITE. GOT AWAY FROM ONE, GOT AWAY FROM AFTERNOON. GOT A CHANCE TO SEE PEYTON, HERE

WITH HIS SON WATCHING THE GAME TODAY. THEY WERE IN BALTIMORE

ARE SPRINTING OUT OF THERE. THEY ARE SPRINTING TO 15 YARDS DEEP, AND JARED GOFF IS SAYING, OKAY, AND JUST DUMPING IT DOWN

AND PICKING UP FIRST DOWNS. THEY ARE KILLING THEM

DEFENSIVELY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD. >> Mike: THE FULL BACK IS IN. HE PROTECTS AS GOFF FIRES HIGH

SOME SHORT YARDAGE SITUATION. IT’S INTERESTING A COMPLETE FLIP OF THE STRATEGY. >> Mike: JOSH REYNOLDS WENT BACK

AFTER THE LAST DRIVE IS ON THE FIELD HERE. DETROIT STARTED THIS DRIVE BACK

TO HAVE. NOW THEY JUST HAVE TO BACK IT

UP. A FIELD GOAL WAS DEADLY IN THIS

SITUATION, TOO. >> Mike: NOW IT’S THIRD AND 15.

NO IDEA HOW STRONG THAT GUY’S LEGS ARE. NO SURPRISE, A FAMILY TRAIT WITH STRENGTH IN THE FAMILY.

THAT GUY IS SOMETHING SPECIAL. >> Mike: POWER LIFTING A BIG TO THE 13 YARD LINE. AGAIN, THAT DRAFT CLASS, GIBBS

TAKEN NUMBER 12, LaPORTA IN THE EARLY SECOND ROUND.

>> Cris: THEY GO RIGHT TO THE HURRY-UP.

THEY DO NOT WANT THEM TO BE ABLE TO SUBSTITUTE.

THEY LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF THIS GROUP. >> Mike: THE RUSH, LOOKING FOR THE FIRST DOWN, FIRST AND GOAL,

SO THEY STARTED WITH THE OUTSIDE, AND NOW THEY’RE COMING BACK WITH THOSE KICKOUTS. THEY’RE HITTING THEM IN BOTH

DIRECTIONS. >> Mike: THE BACKUP TIGHT END,

THE SIXTH-YEAR MAN IS THE TIGHT END.

GOFF LOOKING, ST. BROWN. TOUCHDOWN, DETROIT! SHEILA CAME OUT AND TALKED TO THE MEDIA AND SAID WE’RE STAYING

THE COURSE. WE’RE NOT DOING THE QUICK CHANGE >> Mike: OUT OF THE BUCS’ TIME-OUT, THIRD AND 14.

GET IN THE DEEP CROSSING ROUTES TO PICK THIS UP.

I DO NOT WANT HIM SITTING BACK THERE.

I WOULD COME AFTER IT. >> Mike: MAYFIELD ON THE RUN FOR LIKE THEY WERE THAT TIME, IT’S UP TO THE QUARTERBACK TO THOSE DOWNFIELD, ONE OF THE SPEED

FOR THEM TO ESCAPE RIGHT DESTROYED WHAT WAS THE RIGHT STRATEGY.

MOMENTS. AND HERE IS THE BIGGEST MOMENT. >> Mike: SECOND DOWN. MAYFIELD, TOUCHDOWN, MIKE EVANS!

THE GAME IS ALIVE. THE STRONG HANDS OF EVANS.

MATHEMATICS STANDPOINT. >> Mike: NO BACKS. TO MAKE IT A FIVE-POINT GAME. MAYFIELD FOR EVANS!

EXTRA POINT. WHEN YOU ADD THE TWO TOGETHER, IT IS VERY FAVORABLE TO GO FOR TWO IN THE SITUATION.

>> Mike: WHICH IS WHY PEOPLE DO IT.

ON THAT CART STILL CAN’T SIT UP STRAIGHT.

GOAL TIME WHICH WOULD BE A TOUGH DECISION. AND THEN AN EIGHT-POINT GAME, WOULD YOU PUNT IT OR TRY A LONG

FIELD GOAL? >> Mike: AN INCOMPLETION STOPS

THE CLOCK. REVERSE MOTION.

GOFF, THROWS INCOMPLETE. THE CLOCK STOPS AT 2:06.

THE 15. JALEN REEVES MAKING THE TACKLE.

RACHAAD WHITE THE BACK. ANY PRESSURE THAT MAY COME. HE WAS HERE THE LAST TIME THEY WON THE TITLE IN 1957 AND HERE

TO WATCH THEM PLAY FOR A CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2024. >> Cris: MIKE, YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SAY ENOUGH ABOUT WHAT

DAN CAMPBELL HAS DONE FOR THE DETROIT LIONS. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SAY ENOUGH, AND I THINK THAT SHEILA

  1. Personally,Im getting tired of the Southern division. Consistently 9-8 teams make the playoffs AND actually get a game at home in the wildcard. There are better teams than these .500 teams that make the playoffs.

  2. As a Tennessee Titans fan congratulations to the Detroit Lions, as they're having one hell
    of a playoff run. I am stoked that ex-Titans Kalif Raymond and Josh Reynolds are having
    success in the Motor City. Yet, it is also bittersweet b/c after reading certain things about M.
    Vrabel's coaching tenure in Tennessee I wonder if both players were fully given a chance in
    Nashville. And I'll just leave it at that.

  3. Sadly, Mike Evans tipped pass defeated the Buccaneers.
    Tampa Bay wouldn't rven be sniffing the playoffs without Baker Mayfield.

    Looking forward yo seeing Tampa back in the Superbowl with Baker leading the way

  4. I don't understand why teams go for 2 when they are down 7 (if they just kick the extra point). Now (when you miss it….which they ALWAYS do) you HAVE to go for 2 just to tie it…if you get another TD. I have never seen it work out for the team attempting it.

  5. Why does the thumbnail always have to give away who won? For us who didn't watch the games live, that's really not cool..

  6. Lions I do admit as a cowboys fan you did beat us and the refs did ruin it for you but for all of us please beat the cheifs if you get to the superbowl

  7. As a Packers fan I’m rooting for The Lions to make a Super Bowl appearance. It’s about time for them.

  8. Glad to play the lions this close where Bucs got no breaks and had a lot of dropped passes, -2 in TO differential, more penalties, and 4 horrible sacks and on the road.
