Stafford isn't the answer...

[manchild98]

"We might have been worried about how the Packers would slow down a pass-heavy Lions offense that entered the game ranked third in the NFL in points per game. The Packers were not.

Coordinator Dom Capers dramatically shifted his game plan after two weeks of heavy blitzing. Instead, according to ESPN Stats & Information, he sent four or fewer pass-rushers on a season-high 77.6 percent of quarterback Matthew Stafford's drop backs. Capers maximized the players he devoted to coverage and left Stafford checking down to running backs and tight ends for most of the game.

In fact, Stafford's average of 5.2 yards per attempt was his lowest mark of the season and an indication of his inability to get the ball downfield. Lions wide receivers caught 10 passes for a season-low 101 yards, and all three of Stafford's interceptions came when the Packers had at least seven men in coverage."

I havent read any of this thread beyond a page or two, but want to note that his worser play has come right after his injury. It should be obvious that its from his injury.

All stats that are unattainable for Stanton or Hill, even in arena football. Goodbye Stanton and Hill fanboys.

one reason i'm not afraid of any team in playoffs is lions seem to be moving toward their peak whereas others seem to be status quo or slipping. with stafford 100%, lions can win any game.

Glad you bumped. You can tell who the dumb asses are.

We are the kind of team that will take advantage of a team not playing at their best. If you get us down and let up we will storm back and beat ya. Outside of the game at Soldier Field we have been in with a chance to win every game. Will we make the Super Bowl no one knows but could we yep

Get some right, you get some wrong. I called before the season basically the stats he would put up, but then he got in a huge funk which he has gotten out of. I'll live.

He had a fk'd up finger for three weeks and you overreacted. It wasn't a funk. It was a fk'd up finger, lol. He's been great. And compare him to Sanchez, Freeman, Bradford etc.

 

[themadbomber]

Not too many questions about his accuracy in the SD game... Dude was spot on the whole game

 

[sggatecl]

When he stopped wearing the glove his accuracy was 100% better.

 

[MalFunkShun]

Glad I was more amazed at the stupidity then part of it

 

[themadbomber]

When his broken finger healed enough so he could put pressure on the football his accuracy was 100% better.

Fixed for you
