There were plenty of reasons the Lions lost this game.
-They couldn't stop the run (this is the biggest reason for the loss)
-The officials were awful and there were at least 4 bad calls that impacted the game (missed facemask on first TD, block in the back by Wilson on Rawls run missed, pass interference not called due to uncatchable, roughing the passer to extend the drive and eventually score)
- six dropped passes, three of which would have been 3rd down conversions
- Stupid personal fouls by veteran players including one that was on 3rd down
Stafford played pretty well, not lights out, but pretty good against a good defense... but the Lions shot themselves in the foot with penalties and drops, the Seahawks shot them in the heart with the run game and the officials did them in with a headshot via bad calls
