Stafford impressive as Lions roll
ESPN’s Ed Werder is reporting that New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees has a torn plantar fascia in his right foot.

And today, the question is whether Brees, who became just the fourth quarterback in league history to surpass 60,000 passing yards during the Detroit game, and who is fourth all-time with 424 touchdown passes, will be able to play.
“I dont know what we got going here”, he told reporters, per Nick Underhill of The Advocate.
Stafford shredded the Saints’ porous secondary in the first half, completing 12 of 13 passes for 142 yards and three touchdowns as Detroit raced to a 21-3 halftime lead.
“His stats said it all – 22 of 25, which is (near) perfection”, said Detroit receiver Golden Tate, who caught touchdown passes of 1 and 5 yards to help the Lions (5-9) build a 28-3 lead early in the second half and then hang on.
Brees will seek a second opinion from Dr. Robert Anderson, the same doctor who treated Peyton Manning for the same injury that’s kept the Broncos quarterback out the last five games. This is where New Orleans would start to turn it on, however, as Drew Brees hit Brandin Cooks for a 27-yard TD and a 28-10 result after three. I know Saints fans paid a lot of money to be there, and the team should try to win every game, blah de blah. Brees will have an MRI on Tuesday.
Brees played much of the game with the injury, but never missed a snap.
Payton disputed the penalty, saying Kelemete reported.
On Colston’s catch, the official had to make a judgment call on whether veteran right guard Jahri Evans was too far into the end zone when the pass was thrown on fourth-and-goal from the 1.
“I’ve stopped trying to figure these guys out”, Caldwell said when asked what explanation the officials gave him.
The Detroit Lions had one of their most impressive victories of the season Monday night – and the whole country got to see it.
Both teams move to 5-9 on the year following this game. It marked the fifth straight game the Lions’ run game has cracked 100 yards and has been a key to sparking the offense.

-COACHING: A-minus. The only blemish was head coach Jim Caldwell’s first challenge, which seemed like an obvious catch by Saints wide receiver Willie Snead.
