Grading Stafford

I would much rather see him smile after putting up good all around numbers. The offense has been in a vegetative state too much for him to be smiling so big.

My hope is that Lombardi's offense is a lot more complex than we know, and that step 1 of acclimating to it was to keep turnovers to a minimum. Maybe Stafford will have a genuine breakout season next year......... Then again, just typing that makes me wanna drown my sorrow in a bowl of ice cream lol.
 
Protection and run game issues. 71 scoring drives but not as good with TDs. Limited turnovers. B+
 
Instead of grading on the Homer curve like LKP did I will base my grade on stats.

Comp % 25th = D+
YPA - 19th = C-
INT - 13th = C+
TD - 14th = C
QB Rating 21st = C-

Overall grade = C-

Most errant throws of all qbs. Twist that into praise for Stafford, LKP. He needs to show us something THIS season. No excuses. Play to the level of your pay or BUST.

you didn't factor in Oline and run game or wins. Incorrect grades.

Plenty of great throws. We rely on him. 600 attempts. He moves the ball for us. Nobody else does.

So you assume that all of those QBs that are ranked above him had stellar offensive lines?

My grades are accurate. You giving him a B+ is laughable...but you are a delusional homer so that is what I expect out of you.

So are you saying Tom Brady is less accurate than Geno Smith?

No. Brady completed 64.1% of his passes and Smith and Geno Smith completed 59.7% of his passes. However, that website is saying that Brady does have a higher percentage of bad throws than Geno Smith.
 
Don't you know that bad throws are the result of poor offensive line play and no run support?

His "True bad throw percentage" is 0.001%

They can be caused by that. 3rd and longs are tougher. Pressure causing a bad throw.
 
2.5 more a game than Rodgers. No big deal. Oline pressure hurts that. And lack of separation sometimes too.

11 wins. Plenty of great drives, limited turnoers. B+

Great defense. Stafford would be a losing qb anywhere else in the league. Speaking of losing, what's his record against playoff teams? We've got a qb that can't beat good teams. And that gets us exactly where?
