Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford didn't have his best game Sunday during a Week 8 win over Dallas. He combined with a record-setting performance from Calvin Johnson to do just enough to beat the Cowboys.
Stafford hit Calvin Johnson at the goal line with just seconds to play in the game and the Lions trailing 30-24. Stafford ran up to the line and snuck the ball into the end zone for the game-winning score on the next play.
Stafford finished 33 of 48 for 488 yards with one touchdown -- to Johnson in the first quarter -- and two interceptions. He had a QB rating of 91.3 on the game. Stafford rushed three times for 12 yards and the TD.
The 25-year-old Stafford has topped 350 yards passing in two consecutive games and has done it four times this season. The Lions are on bye Week 9 and return Week 10 at Chicago.
