Not trolling. Explaining to them what actually happened. They are clueless to who is out, who is important, the impact of WR 3 and TE, the impact of protection and run game and how everything is interrelated in football.
Comp % and QB rating is more a team stat.
Stafford had a great 2014. Mayhew didn't say it just to say it or give Stafford confidence. Mayhew watched the game tape and KNOWS Stafford played great.
Room for improvement for any QB. Year 2 of the offense, give him more WR 3 and TE production, give him more protection and give him run support, reduce the drop %. Adding Abdullah, Laken/Ramirez, year 2 Swanon, year 2 Ebron and better health should do this.
Could Stafford have one or two less misfires a game sure. But the misfires aren't the stat problem. Every QB has some misfires.
He won 11 with just defensive support. Image if he has the proper offensive support too.
Yes you are trolling. You can drop your gibberish routine with me, as I don't buy it at all and you know I don't. Here's why I know you're full of it:
1. You post the same sort of nonsense over and over again as if you believe people here are actually buying into it. Clearly nobody on earth supports your "true" stats whatsoever, yet you continue to post them as fact. Why continue to post it if you know it's not helping you win your argument? You do this because you know it agitates people, not because you really believe it.
2. You show no ability whatsoever to compromise on anything. Everything is absolutes with you, there are no shades of gray. I never see you acknowledging anybody else's points that are made against you. This is further evidence that you're not having a real argument, that you just enjoy stirring crap up. In a real debate there is give and take.
3. You hijack every thread. You don't care what the subject matter is, if you can somehow spin it into your endless cycle of nonsense you seize that opportunity. You enjoy it, and that's what trolls enjoy.
4. Your constant use of hyperbole when describing anything related to the Lions, especially Matt Stafford. All I read are things like "great throw," "amazing read," "unbelievable clutchness," "tremendous handoff," "spectacular audible," etc etc. Again no shades of gray. You use that sort of language because you know it riles people up. More troll behavior.
5. Your gimmick has apparently been going on for years, with no sign of changing. Obviously you have a sound mind (at least I think you do), and you have shown the ability to make sensible posts when you put your mind to it. The fact that you choose not to more often than not tells me it is deliberate.
Maybe you really think there is too much negativity among the Lions fanbase. You might be right. At least the difference is, with the negative posters they are at least being genuine. You are nothing but a fraud who gets his giggles by starting nonsensical arguments. And for that I have no respect for you.
Carry on.
