DETROIT (AP) — When a team loses 47-7, it is difficult to pick out one play that could have changed things.

The Detroit Lions, though, can at least consider it.

On the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ first possession, they faced third-and-9 from their 19. Linebacker Jahlani Tavai sacked Tom Brady for a 6-yard loss, but Everson Griffen was offside on the play.

Given a second chance, Brady converted the first down with a pass to Chris Godwin, then put the Buccaneers ahead with a 33-yard pass to Rob Gronkowski.

After that, it was a disaster for the Lions (5-10).

Detroit with Robert Prince handling coaching duties after interim head coach Darrell Bevell was sidelined by COVID-19 protocols, lost quarterback Matthew Stafford to a lower-leg injury on the first series of the game.

Chase Daniel completed 13 of 18 passes, but for only 86 yards and never got the Lions past midfield.
