 ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) - Matthew Stafford is able to throw
DETROIT (AP) -- again, but Drew Stanton is still Detroit's starting quarterback.
      Stafford threw a few 10-yard passes at the start of practice
Wednesday, testing an injured right shoulder that has bothered him
all season. Stafford has hurt the shoulder twice and has played
only one full game this season.
      With backup quarterback Shaun Hill also injured, coach Jim
Schwartz says Stanton will start for a second straight game when
the Lions host Green Bay on Sunday.
      Stanton went 16 of 24 for 178 yards and a touchdown in a loss to
Chicago last weekend.
