Adewale Ogunleye was responsible for the injury, in a third down and six yards to move the defensive player embracing Stafford captured without releasing his right leg when he fell, twisting his knee and the quarterback. After a complete field goal was Daunte Culpepper who entered the field as a leader of the offensive line, leading his team to build a new defeat.
"I felt a little better, I think he could return to the same field Sunday." Said Stafford, who totaled 286 yards and a touchdown in his fourth game as a pro. "I hope to be back soon."
Tests are being worked, so far not known how long this injury could linger the star player on the Lions, on the one hand it is true that the team desperately needs their quality of execution on the field, but it is also important to take care because aggravated injury to the knee could even deactivate him for the rest of the season, just as happened with Tom Brady in 2008.
"He failed to warm the knee again, just did not want to revive it in the field, was very dangerous." Said Jim Schwartz, head coach of the Lions. "If enough improvement will definitely be our starter against Pittsburgh"
Finally the franchise, after breaking a streak of 19 straight losses, begin to construct an effective team that could excel this season even in moderation, being that so far there are nine teams statistically weaker than the Detroit Lions in the general table positions, Matt Stafford is a key and necessary element in the group.
