While going through and gathering up this morning's Patriots links, here are some links out of Detroit - and they're flying high from last night's win:

MLive has their recap from last night and they spotlight Matt Stafford's performance, with the Lions quarterback feeling pretty good about last night's win.

"I think we're playing pretty much mistake-free football the last couple of games, as far as turnovers go," Stafford said. "As an offense, we're doing a good job of not turning the ball over. When you do that, you've got a chance to be in some games. If we can do that, we've got enough talent on the outside and explosive guys all over the field that if we can just get them the ball, we have a chance to be pretty explosive."

Phillip Zaroo writes that Stafford continued his 'white hot' preseason with last night's performance against the Patriots.

Tom Kowalski of MLive.com breaks down film from last night's win, and highlights some of the moments from the game.

Kowalski also writes that the Lions need to try and not get too high after their 3-0 preseason start.

Carolos Monarrez has a column on the Lions defense, and writs that despite not registering a sack, Ndamukong Suh and the rest of his teammates harassed the bejesus out of Tom Brady last night.

Michael Rosenberg has an article on the fact that Stafford proved he's going to be an elite quarterback last night.

Monarrez also has his notes from the game, and writes that Tom was 'not so terrific' last night.

Chris McCosky also files his notebook, and writes that Ricardo Silva made an impact with the team after picking off Brady in the 2nd quarter.

McCosky also writes that the Lions were firing on all cylinders last night in their win over New England, and has a host of quotes from the players after the game.
