TIM AND MIKE: Mock game observations

Sloppy day: Matthew Stafford completed a 13-yard pass to Marvin Jones on the first play of the mock game at Ford Field Saturday as the No. 1 offense started against the No. 3 defense. His next pass, however, was right to cornerback Darrin Walls.

Not long after, drops by Golden Tate and Theo Riddick forced a three-and-out. There were a couple other instances of miscommunication between Stafford and his receivers as the game went on.

The offense scored in a two-minute drill right before the half on a touchdown from Stafford to Tate. They scored again in the second half when Stafford found tight end Cole Wick.
