- Rashean Mathis got an interception and found the end zone for the first time in a long time on Sunday.
That was Rashean Mathis' first INT since Sept. 18, 2011 against the New York Jets and Mark Sanchez. #Lions #Bills #Jets
— Michael Rothstein (@mikerothstein) October 5, 2014That's Rashean Mathis' first TD since 2008 when he was with Jaguars. Not bad for an old guy. #Bills at #Lions

- After he scored his touchdown, Golden Tate celebrated by pretending that he was going to jump up and try to dunk the ball over the crossbar. The reaction from the official standing under the goal posts was pretty hilarious.
- LaAdrian Waddle had a pretty rough first game back from injury.

Lions now 1-for-9 on the season on field goals longer than 30 yards.
— Michael David Smith (@MichaelDavSmith) October 5, 2014The Lions are already halfway to recording their most missed field goals in a season since 1980 when they had 15. They currently have 8.

- After the Buffalo Bills won, former Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz was carried off the field on the shoulders of two of his players. Apparently he requested this months ago.
Schwartz told Bills players in OTAs he wanted to be carried off the field after he beat the Lions

- If this is true, this is pretty classless:
Bills coach Doug Marrone, apparently said they are asking NFL to look into fans pointing lasers into his players eyes, inc on missed FG
