Lions finish preseason 4-0 with a 16-6 win over Buffalo
Backup quarterback Shaun Hill completed four of his five passes for 34 yards and one touchdown to help the Detroit Lions down the Buffalo Bills, 16-6 to complete a perfect preseason.
Starter Matthew Stafford completed one pass, a 39-yard bomb to Calvin Johnson before leaving the game, and former Michigan State standout Drew Stanton completed three-of-seven passes for 37 yards.
Jerome Harrison led the rushing attack for the Lions. The six-year veteran rushed seven times for 72 yards, including a 47-yard burst.
Kicker Jason Hanson converted three field goals for Detroit to help cap off the win.
Painfully, the fans remember the last time the Lions finished the preseason 4-0 back in 2008, where they went winless the entire season. Determined not to repeat history, the Lions will begin the regular season on the road as the face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on 9/11.
