you are so predictable. When you are trying to defend Matt you say he has no weapons. Sounds like the Lions have 2 number one WRs on their roster. I'm sure you think Hock is a top 5 receiving TE as well.
You again missed the point
Hock is a top 5 TE. 3rd in receiving yards and 4th in TDS. Marvin Jones is good. KG is good but not playing. It takes more than for a QB
Marvin is good but doesn't separate. He still produces. It makes it harder for Stafford but their connection works well. Same with Hock.
Stafford production depends on many things though. Bad protection and run game for long down and distance causes big problem for QBs. Pressure causes big problems for QB. Lack of short fields makes it harder for QBS. Bad defense being down double digits because of the defense makes it very hard for QBs.
And you can produce, but there can be plays that Stafford has an incomplete that the WR didn't produce on that particular play (doesn't mean they are a bad weapon, just that they made a mistake on that play). Next play Stafford/WRs do their job but then Oline doesn't. Sometimes its great plays from the defense (that Dline made the play of his life, same for Patrick Robinson Saints pick, crazy deflection first bears game pick). Sometimes a thumb injury is affecting throws. Sometimes it is predictable conservative play calling that is the problem.
There are so so many factors. Stafford and his weapons are good. Some of them are hurt. Some of them don't separate which it makes it tougher but they are still good and productive weapons. Stafford helps make them better too.
Stafford and weapons can be good, some piece of Oline can be good, Swift can be good but they can on occasion cause problems for the QB. And then they could also be not on the field which changes things.
He needs more than just weapons. All QBs need more than just weapons.
Weapons, run game, defense, protection, good play calling, good game situations (don't be in obvious passing situations). QBs need 3 of those for great success really even the elite ones. Stafford makes the most of the situation but its not due to lack of talent around him.
Sometimes drive will stall from sack on an Oline or RB whiff, sometimes a coverage sack, sometimes a run stuff, sometimes penalties make it too tough for the first down, sometimes defense make a great play, sometimes great defensive play call that nobody could stop from coming, sometimes its bad play calling, run, run pass situations)
Very rarely is it a bad throw (with a clean pocket) or bad decision. It happens with all QBs. Stafford has 4-5 picks on him, some of them when the Lions already getting their ass kicked and some were just great defensive plays
