Sunday's Lions-Cowboys game was exciting. Not only was there a dramatic, improbable comeback by Detroit to win the game 31-30, but there was also one of the best receivers in the NFL conducting a sideshow on the Cowboys sidelines.
Calvin Johnson himself seemed a little shocked at the numbers he put up Sunday.
