    Lions coach Jim Schwartz, ever helpful, said he would definitely decide on a starting quarterback by game time Sunday. Indications, however, point to Drew Stanton making his third straight start. He has taken most of the first-team reps this week and he took all of them on Friday while Shaun Hill was trying to work his way around a broken knuckle on his right index finger. "Nothing's been different," said Stanton, who said he got the same amount of work in practice as he had before his two previous starts. "Nobody's told me anything except that Shaun was trying to get back. I don't know where he is with that. I know he was able to throw and I am aware that if he can play, he will."
