DETROIT − Rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs took the football on Tampa Bay’s 31-yard line and burst out like a cannon shot, a piece of Detroit’s future trying desperately to outrun its past. He shot through the line, then deftly cut left, and it was a foot race to the end zone, with only safety Antoine Winfield Jr. chasing. Gibbs surged. The crowd leapt to its feet. And as the young Lion straight-armed his defender, crossed the pylon, and saw the referee throw two hands in the air, finally, finally, youth and freshness and something really new saw its day in the Detroit sun.
