Jahmyr Gibbs piled up 218 total yards and two touchdowns, including a 78-yard scoring run, as the host Detroit Lions downed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 24-9, on Monday night.

Gibbs rushed for 136 yards on 17 carries and caught three passes for 82 yards. Jared Goff passed for 241 yards and a touchdown, while Amon-Ra St. Brown caught six passes for 86 yards and a touchdown for the Lions (5-2).

Baker Mayfield passed for 228 yards and a touchdown for the Buccaneers (5-2). Cade Otton caught seven passes for 65 yards.

Tampa Bay wide receiver Mike Evans suffered a concussion and shoulder injury during the first half and did not return.

The Lions grabbed a 14-3 halftime lead.

Detroit wasted little time establishing control, as it scored on the opening possession. A 27-yard pass from Goff to St. Brown completed the 69-yard drive.

That was the only scoring during the opening quarter. Gibbs ended the drought with 5:51 remaining in the half when he burst through a hole and raced down the right sideline on his 78-yard run.

There was plenty of activity late in the half. Detroit's Jake Bates missed a field goal attempt and both quarterbacks traded interceptions. The latter, Jamel Dean's pickoff of a Goff attempt, set up Chase McLaughlin's 53-yard field goal to end the half.

The Bucs pulled within five points with an 11-play, 67-yard drive to open the second half. Tez Johnson's 22-yard reception finished off the drive, but Mayfield's 2-point conversion pass failed, leaving the score at 14-9.

Gibbs sparked the next Detroit scoring drive. He had a 15-yard run and a 28-yard reception before scoring on a 5-yard run with 4:39 remaining in the third quarter.

The Bucs came up short on fourth down in their own territory early in the fourth and the Lions cashed in on Bates' 58-yard field goal to make it 24-9.

Tampa Bay turned the ball over on downs with 4:24 remaining after driving inside the Detroit 20.
