DETROIT LIONS The Lions are the team that the Bucs have beaten the second-most in their franchise history thanks to their twice-a-year meetings when they were both in the old NFC Central Division. They have met twice in the post-season, the 1997 Wild Card victory for Tampa Bay that was the final game played at the Old Sombrero and the 2023 divisional game in Detroit. They have met once in the pre-season, a 33-30 victory for Detroit in 2018.
