A playoffs rematch is scheduled to go down in Detroit, MI this Sunday.

Week 2 of the 2024 NFL season finds the Tampa Bay Buccaneers traveling to Motown to play the Detroit Lions. Last season the Lions beat the Bucs in their second playoff win — the first time the team has won two playoff games in six decades. 

The Lions are still on the upswing, but the Buccaneers have a lot to prove. Both teams are coming off of Week 1 wins, so it will be one game to watch. The easiest way to catch the action if you don't have cable is with Sling TV.

This game will bring up playoff memories for two teams set to go far this season. The Lions' offensive line is one of the best in the league, boasting stars like Amon-Ra St. Brown and Penei Sewell. On the other side, the Buccaneers might have some question marks thanks to the injuries of Zyon McCullum and Antoine Winfield Jr. (let alone Bryce Hall's season-ending injury). Both teams have a lot to fight far, so it will be interesting to see how it all plays out. 

Here's how to watch the Buccaneers vs. Detroit Lions game today.
