Stafford dealing with considerable pain

Lions QB MATTHEW STAFFORD is expected to play today despite being listed as questionable with a hip injury, but reports say this isn't a case of a player having been included on the injury report as any kind of subterfuge. Stafford is in considerable pain, and the issue intensified as the week went on; one source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that the quarterback was close to sitting out. It could be that backup David Blough leads the Lions in garbage time if things get out of hand against high-powered Kansas City.
