Stafford in Focus

Tate baldwin and kearse is a joke of a receiving corps. Lynch isnt very good out of the backfield. He made them all better.

A joke of a receiving corp? We got CJ....that's it over them. I'll take Kearse, Tate and Baldwin over CJ, Durham, Ross/Ogletree/Burleson/Broyles any day of the week. You're delusional.
And your Lynch comment should get you at least a 6 month ban. Lynch is a beast. He may not be the greatest receiver, but he takes all kinds of pressure off Wilson in the runnung game.
 
Well, they have a .07% difference in pass/int %. Nothing huge.

However, 6% difference in completion. That's the difference maker there. Hopefully Stafford is fix-able. Last year I'm willing to put up with him. Hopefully he turns a corner.

I think it's 0.7% which isn't a big difference but for every 142 passes they throw Stafford has one more INT.
 
Seeing how Calvin is constantly double-teamed, sometimes tripled, he has the value of Tate and Baldwin combined. After that, you are comparing Kearse to Durham. Bush was a massive safety valve for Stafford, and Stafford sits behind one of the best O-lines in the NFL (Seattle has a decent line, not amazing). I would not take Seattle's "weapons" over Detroit's. Other than Lynch, those guys are solid, not spectacular.

Just our top 2 rbs had 1600 yards rushing.....that should take a HUGE amount of pressure off Stafford. but hes too dumb to use it to his advantage. Bush is leaps and bounds better than lynch as a receiver. Lets compare shall we?

Bush 1st rd talent
Calvin 1st rd talent
Nate 3rd rd talent
Pettigrew 1st rd talent
Durham 3rd rd talent

to

Kearse UDFA
Baldwin UDFA
tate 2nd rd talent
Zach Miller 2nd rd talent
Lynch is garbage as a receiver

so again....Wilson put up better numbers with less to work with. You cant say "well Wilson has a running game" cause the lions had a great run game last year averaging over 4 ypc and over 1600 yards out of our 2 main backs. Lynch had 1200.

to be fair the Seahawks top two runners did have almost 1800 yards on 4.5 yards per attempt. Of course Wilson was their second leading rusher with 539 yards

Which also strengthens Wilson's case as a better qb lol.

But Wilson didn't have less to work with. Who gives a fuck where players are drafted or not drafted? What does that even mean anyways? Our receivers are a fn joke!!
 
So players like Durham, Ogletree, Ross, Pettigrew and Broyles are all of a sudden better than Kearse, Tate, Baldwin and Miller? LMFAO!! OK!!! ANYTHING to bash Stafford I guess....wow.

Of that bunch of Sea WRs Tate was probably the best. CJ + garbage > Tate and a few mediocre players.

yes...yes they are.

calvin vs tate really?
nate vs Baldwin really?
durham vs kearse maybe a push
pettidrop vs miller pettidrop is a rd 1 pick that our gm resigned
broyles/ross/ogletree vs who the fuck knows

so no where in there do they have a player that is better than ours....anywhere...ever...

Stafford sucked ass last year...
 
The same people saying this team was loaded with talent during the coaching search are the same ones saying Stafford has never had weapons. Well which one is it?

Saying Durham vs. Kearse is a push means you should never talk about football.....ever. That's just fucking stupid. Baldwin is better than Nate, too.

And I love how you happened to skip over who is better between Miller and Pettigrew....just mentioned what round Pettigrew was drafted. Miller is a far better pass catching TE than Pettigrew. So by your logic.....Chris Houston is better than Richard Sherman.....because he was drafted earlier, right?

Keep talking.....you just show over and over again how you know nothing about football.....lol.

Yup. Same douchebags that argue how talented we are and defend mayhew and how good he is...will defend stafford by saying we have no talent. So dumb....

So 2 udfas are better than our entire wr corps not named cj....lol and you call me fucking stupid? 1 of 2 things are therefor true....our gm sucks ass or youre an idiot.


Lmao building up Zach miller as some pass catching monster....all I can do is lol.

Lol.....if saying Zach Miller is a better receiving TE than Pettigrew makes him a monster.....than so be it. That's all you.

The fact you judge players talent level strictly on where they were drafted years ago is laughable.

What makes Nate Burelson better than Baldwin? Routes? Speed? What? All you got is where they were drafted.

I doubt you know the the difference between Doug Baldwin and Billy Baldwin!

Go away now.....big boys are in a conversation.

Years ago? Kearse was undrafted in 2012. Baldwin in 2011. They aren't 10-year vets.

Just another case of another QB (Wilson) taking the talent around him and making them better, vs burning a top 10 pick on a 2nd TE because your franchise QB cannot improve anyone around him.

Yep, and the 49ers wanted nothing to do with Baldwin
