CINCINNATI — Which Matthew Stafford will we see on Sunday against the Bengals? If you remember when Stafford had his season-high five interceptions at Seattle, he came back the next week with zero and that game was at Minnesota, a tough, loud place to play. Last week he had four. So on Sunday? It’s anybody’s guess. Cincinnati has a good defense with corners who can catch the ball. If the Lions don’t fall behind right away, Stafford has a better chance at keeping the interceptions down. If they’re down in the second half, he will take risks. It should be interesting. He and Calvin Johnson are probably as healthy as they’ve been in several weeks.
