DETROIT — For eight weeks, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell has been consistent about one thing. 

When his team loses — and that’s all it has done — he’s going to take the blame. 

As usual, Campbell’s players strongly disagreed. As usual, the problem was the inability to get the ball down the field.

Tight end T.J. Hockenson finished with 10 catches for 89 yards, but Amon-Ra St. Brown was the only wide receiver to catch a pass. 

He had two receptions for 12 yards in the first half, then added a 34-yard reception in garbage time.
