Detroit Lions player notes for Dec 17th, 2018


Matthew Stafford – Noteworthy
QB Matthew Stafford went 22 of 29 for 208 yards and one touchdown in the Lions’ 14-13 loss to the Bills on Sunday. “It’s frustrating,” Stafford said. “You play this game for the opportunity for the playoffs and a chance to win the whole thing, so any time that gets taken away from you right now or the championship game, whatever it is, it’s disappointing.” After a scoreless first quarter, the Lions drew first blood when Stafford directed a nine-play, 75-yard drive that culminated with a four-yard touchdown pass to Andy Jones. Stafford also engineered a 77-yard scoring drive.
