• The Browns' backup defense is getting stepped on by the Lions' offensive subs.
• Joe Haden made a nice recovery to break up a Shaun Hill pass for Dennis Northcutt in the end zone. On the play, David Veikune got a questionable flag for hitting Hill at the knees. Aaron Brown scored from four yards on the next play. Detroit up, 28-27, with 9:38 to play.
• Colt McCoy has 9 1/2 minutes to get something done with Syndric Steptoe, Bobby Engram and Taurus Johnson.

• McCoy is stripped of the ball by defensive end Willie Young, who beat Casey Bender, and linebacker Ashlee Palmer recovers. Third Browns' lost fumble of the game.
• Browns defense is carved up again by the Lions' subs. Aaron Brown looks like Barry Sanders -- 6 yards, 19 and 2 for the touchdown. Brandon McDonald had a nice view of it sitting on the edge of the defense.
• McCoy had some nice dumpoffs, but they're not enough.
