Not bad for a less than stellar running game.
Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford has thrown 30 play-action passes, according to ESPN Stats & Information. That's the 12th-fewest in the NFL, but Stafford has completed 24 of them for an NFL-high 80 percent completion rate. Three of his 13 touchdowns have come on play-action, and he has the highest passer rating (150.4) and Total Quarterback Rating (97.5) on play-action passes in the league.
We need more but not bad.
