FILM REVIEW: Drawing up a touchdown

Matthew Stafford isn’t a running quarterback, but he’s more athletic than some give him credit for.

His 18-yard scramble down the right sideline set up the Lions’ lone touchdown in Detroit's 18-13 victory over Oakland Sunday. Stafford dialed up his own number again on the next play, a touchdown coming off a terrifically designed and executed play.

The touchdown is the subject of this week’s Film Review:

Stafford is facing a 1st and goal at the Oakland 5-yard line trailing 13-9 with 11:12 left in the game.

The Lions come out in a shotgun five receiver set with no one in the backfield but Stafford.
