Summary

Did we forget about Tampa Bay all offseason? Man the Bucs look good two weeks in. We discuss how the Lions have some very good company among the NFC elites. Also, the Lions make some roster moves and add a Lamar Jackson clone to the Practice Squad. In addition, MLIVE's Ben Raven joins us. The Lions beat writer talks about the first two games, his impressions of the O Line, Ben Johnson from Sunday, and a look ahead to Monday night in Baltimore.
