For 54 minutes of game time on Monday night, the Detroit Lions offense could do nothing at all.
Matthew Stafford's bunch had produced just three points, only afforded a last-ditch attempt at a tying drive while down 13-10 because of a strip-sack touchdown from the defense -- and my goodness, was the Detroit defense marvelous all evening -- earlier in the fourth quarter. The Lions' 43 offensive plays to that point had yielded just 166 yards, an average of 3.86 per play. Stafford was 18 of 29 for 130 yards, a paltry average of 4.
