Darrell Bevell dug deep into his bag of tricks at a time when the Detroit Lions needed it most.
Bevell, in his first season as Lions offensive coordinator, called a halfback toss-flea flicker early in the fourth quarter Sunday that Matthew Stafford heaved downfield for the game-clinching 41-yard touchdown pass to Kenny Golladay as the Lions snapped a three-game losing streak with a 31-26 win over the New York Giants at Ford Field.
Stafford completed 25 of 32 passes for 342 yards, and Golladay had six catches for 123 yards and caught two of Stafford’s three touchdown throws.
