After a drama-filled game<\/a> with the Kansas City Chiefs, the Detroit Lions fell to 4-2, losing due to mistakes and some learning of the rulebook. The Lions need to focus on the now, though, as they return home for a \u201cMonday Night Football\u201d game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs enter 5-1, and the top team of the NFC, as these two battle once again in a highly-contested matchup.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re playing hot football. It\u2019s a very good team,\u201d Campbell said. \u201cBaker (Mayfield), you guys know I got a lot of respect for him. The way he plays, his leadership, his ability to push the ball down the field, make plays with his legs\u2014I just think he\u2019s playing at a high level. He\u2019s a guy that gives them a chance anytime they\u2019re in a game. They play really good defense. They got a good old line\u2014those guys are tough, physical, and they play hard. They have a run game, and they got a good special teams unit. It\u2019s a good team. It\u2019s a really good team.\u201d<\/p>\n
