Live updates: Lions comeback bid on life support
The Lions took over at their own 18 with 4:15 on the clock, but a holding penalty put them behind the chains and they were never able to recover, punting the ball back to the Saints after back-to-back sacks of Matt Stafford.
It appears the Lions have made peace with their fate, trailing 52-38 with 2:38 remaining in the game.
Stafford throws another interception
A pass interference penalty on first down gave the Lions the ball at the New Orleans 35. But then, it happened again. Matt Stafford threw the ball off of Theo Riddick's helmet and it was intercepted by Kenny Vaccaro.
With 4:31 left to play, the Lions are still down 52-38.
Saints return the favor
