Matthew Stafford listed as 3rd-best quarterback in league.
One analyst lists Matthew Stafford as one of the best quarterbacks currently in the league.
Today is unofficially Matthew Stafford Appreciation Day.
After drawing comparisons to two-time Super Bowl winner Ben Roethlisberger, Stafford received praise from another analyst and former NFL quarterback. Bleacher Report?s Chris Simms ranked all 32 starting quarterbacks based not on accomplishments, but ?athleticism, arm strength, decision making and composure.?
Stafford came in at third on the list, only behind Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady.
