Matthew Stafford dropped back and threw a 6-yard pass to Calvin Johnson, converting a third down to seal a victory for the Detroit Lions at Chicago in their finale last season. Stafford said Tuesday he suspected the superstar receiver was playing his last NFL game back then against the Bears. Johnson had 10 receptions, matching a season high, and 137 yards receiving, his second-highest total of the year, and scored a touchdown to help the Lions beat the Bears 24-20 on Jan. 3.
