Detroit Lions Strategy And Personnel 9-10-12
TE Brandon Pettigrew dropped a sure touchdown pass at the end of the first half, but he more than made up for it. With the Lions down 20-13 in the fourth quarter, Stafford went to Pettigrew three times, for 20, 18 and 24 yards, part of a lightning-fast 80-yard touchdown drive. "I think I owed it to the team to at least make those catches," Pettigrew said. "I gave up a big play earlier in the game, that was the least I could do." Pettigrew had five catches (he was targeted 10 times) for 77 yards.
--PK Jason Hanson became the first player in NFL history to play 21 seasons for the team that drafted him. "It's great," he said. "But I'm numb to the old-man awards now. I'll take them without complaining. I've been saying all these years, it's been a blessing for my family to be in the same place so I think God for that, truly." Hanson celebrated by kicking field goals of 41 and 45 yards.
