Stafford connects with Tate, Lions lead 7-0

ARLINGTON, Tex. - Matthew Stafford flung a 51 yard touchdown to Golden Tate as the Detroit Lions lead the Dallas Cowboys 7-0 early in the first quarter of an NFC Wild Card game.

The Dallas native engineered the 62 yard drive over 4 plays after Dallas (12-5) went 3 yards in as many snaps to open the contest.

Tate was decked by C.J. Spillman as he caught the punt that would kick off Detroit's succeeding possession. Stafford connected with Joique Bell on an 11 yard gainer to start the drive.

Dallas is seeking their first playoff victory, and Tony Romo his second, since after the 2009 season.
