That's something we haven't been able to do up here. The Bucs built a 14-3 lead on their next drive. Alstott scored on a 4-yard run after running over safety Kurt Schulz at the 3. The Lions' offense produced a touchdown for the first time this season as time expired in the first half. Batch heaved a 50-yard pass to Crowell, who leaped to catch the ball in front of Brian Kelly at the goal line.
Game notes Detroit lost three starters to injury.
Pro-Bowl linebacker Stephen Boyd left for the second straight week with a back injury, and cornerback Terry Fair missed the last three quarters with a hyperextended right knee. Before missing a 34-yarder in the second quarter, Hanson hadn't missed a field goal of less than 40 yards since late in the 1997 season. Tampa Bay's 72 points against Chicago and Detroit are the biggest two-game total in team history. Gramatica left briefly after being injured while tackling Howard, but quickly returned.
