He gets credit for calling the audible. Again run blocking and Bush get 99% of credit. But Stafford still gets credit. Stop assuming I'm giving Stafford full credit. It was a good job by Stafford and a really good job by the Oline and Bush. And clearly a designed cutback.

Gotta agree with LKP on this one. He even went as far as saying blocking and Reggie Bush were the keys to the play working, I'd even give the stupidity of the defense some credit for not seeing it coming. Wonder how many of the defenders said "Oh shit" the second the ball was snapped

Fine, I"ll give Stafford 1% of credit if it makes you happy. And you said "Stafford gets credit for the audible." How am I to know what percentage of credit you actually mean? Your track record shows that you believe he never does anything wrong and does everything right. And again if it's a measly 1% of the credit why are you even bothering to mention it? Seems like you're just trying to push your agenda is all I'm getting at.
I'm not pushing anything. It's a fact he gets credit. And I've already said Bush and the blocking are the real reasons. But hughes is saying it wasn't the design of the play. Which it clearly was based on the blocking. And that's why we are talking about it again.
You stated this fact in a pretty vague way and with your persona it's not hard to understand why I believe you were pushing your agenda....no mention of the Oline or Bush was brought up by you until I initially responded to your "Stafford gets credit" post. I understand now that you were just responding to an earlier part of the thread with Hughes. I did not know that at the time.
Fine, it's a fact that Stafford gets the minimal amount of credit possible for calling one of two possible audibles. If that is worth mentioning, then I hope to see you posting after every single pretty looking hand-off Stafford gives to the RBs all season. It's a fact that he deserves a small amount of credit for those as well.
Everyone here has a persona....

Like I said, it's in your head what you think about me. I have no persona besides giving facts.
I will just sit back and enjoy the showIt's hard to not play the game though sometimes.
I play no games. I only give facts and context through game tape. Some people on here don't like facts or to know what happened. They have their own agenda (bashing Mayhew or Stafford).
He was dropping at the same time. It was a DE. It was a tough catch for him. But a very bad play by Stafford too.

Stafford's problems are many fold. Bad passes that go incomplete and then the plethora of passes that a WR has to slow down, stop or reach behind. Even if completed they lead to less yards. It'd be a miracle if he could hit a player in stride.
He was not good against Jacksonville. Majority of his passes were awful. He certainly hasn't improved on his footwork and the fact he locks in on Calvin..or someone else.

On the interception play: "That was a hell of a play. That kid needs to play some tight end. No, it was a good play by him, you know, I obviously would love to have that one back and take it down, maybe. He drops outside the safety and then circles all the way back around the field and fell right into it. Calvin (Johnson) ran a great route on his guy, got open and the guy made a good play. We bounced back, moved the ball well after that. Just some of the little stuff that was keeping us from having good drives, getting penalties and turning the ball over."

Stafford is very intelligent. he described it perfectly. See the quote. The only idiot here is you Mitch.
