Every week, we’ll take a brief look at what formations the Lions ran during their last game.

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- This wasn’t surprising Sunday, but Detroit spent a lot of its time in formations with three wide receivers -- or two wide receivers and a tight end in the slot -- with a single running back.

I was able to chart 77 of the Lions’ 80 offensive plays and here’s a quick breakdown of what I saw -- from most common to least. Here’s an unofficial look at what the Lions' offense looked like from the television copy.
