A pass interference penalty on first down gave the Lions the ball at the New Orleans 35. But then, it happened again. Matt Stafford threw the ball off of Theo Riddick's helmet and it was intercepted by Kenny Vaccaro.
With 4:31 left to play, the Lions are still down 52-38.
Saints return the favor
After the Lions defense got the ball back for its offense again, Jamal Agnew muffed the punt, recovered it in the end zone and barely made his way out to the 1.
That's when the Saints returned the favor, batting the ball on a Matt Stafford pass for the 12th time today, and Cam Jordan came down with the interception in the end zone.
