Bottom Line: Bring On The Bucs!
The Lions are sitting at 4-1 on the season, but they will have their work cut out for them in Week 6 when they hit the road to take on the Buccaneers, who are in first place in the NFC South. When it comes to this point in the season, every team in the league is dealing with injuries, and the Lions are no exception to that rule. With that being said, it is all about the Next Man Up mentality, and that is exactly what the Lions will continue to do as the season goes on.
