(Jeff Haynes/AP Images for Panini)Lions 24, Eagles 23

Here are the top-graded players and biggest takeaways from the Lions 24-23 victory over the Eagles.

Stafford bailed out by late turnovers

Quarterback grade: Matthew Stafford, 70.7

Coming out hot, Stafford looked like he was going to have his way with the Eagles defense. But he couldn’t maintain it as the Lions went conservative, attempting no passes further than 20 yards down field compared to six behind the line of scrimmage. It’s telling that 77.8 percent of the Lions receiving yards came after the catch.

Top offensive grades

C Travis Swanson, 85.0

WR Marvin Jones, 77.4

WR Anquan Boldin, 71.7

QB Matthew Stafford, 70.7

HB Theo Riddick, 68.6
