Welcome to week 7 classes!

The final doubleheader of the season, Monday night, will take place in Week 7, and there are two big games on the schedule. At the start of the match, the Detroit Lions (5-2) produced a dominant performance in a 24-9 victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-2).

In front of a national audience watching, Jahmyr Gibbs put on a show: the Lions running back totaled 136 yards and two touchdowns and added 82 receiving yards. With his performance, Gibbs became the first player in 21 years to rush for at least 200 yards from scrimmage with two rushing touchdowns in a Monday night game.

The Lions continued to prove they are unbeatable after a loss. The win over the Bucs comes just one week after Detroit’s loss to the Chiefs, meaning the Lions have now gone 51 straight games without suffering back-to-back losses.

For the Bucs, playing in prime time has been a nightmare with Baker Mayfield. Since he took over at quarterback in 2023, the Bucs are 1-7 in prime-time games, but 23-10 in all others.

In Monday’s nightcap, the Seahawks host the Texans.

With that in mind, let’s move on to the Week 7 notes, starting with the Lions’ big win over the Buccaneers.
