Should have made Devin Thomas a slot coverage guy, apparently.

Dude is still balling with a broken finger on his throwing hand. He's definitely worth the #1 selection so far.[/quote]7.04 yards per attempt. That's almost (but not quite) Campbellesque.

Ohh...as compared to the 8.6 yards from Tom Brady? No wait, you really meant somebody like Drew Brees with a 7.9!!


Stafford is in the top 5 in the NFL in offense. Top 10 in QB rating. Top 3 in TDs. Top 10 in completion percentage.

...and he's doing it with a broken finger on his throwing hand.



Get the hell outta here even putting that clown Campbell and Stafford in the same sentence.

I know you're a stats guy... but is YPA really that telling? I mean, Stafford is 23 years old, has finally been able to start every game so far in a season (despite a broken finger on his throwing hand right now), and he's top 5 in passing yards, has a rating over 90, and 26 TDs with 5 games left to play. He's not Tom Brady yet, but given his age and the numbers he's putting up.... 5 years from now he'll be in his prime if he stays healthy. Extrapolate those numbers, and the sky is the limit for him.

Matt Stafford is way better than Jason Campbell will ever be, YPA be damned.

Re: Around the NFL Week 12
 

Sproles is such a better player than Reggie Bush, its not even close. Sproles easily replace Bush and been far and away a better player in that system. Bush is a huge bust imo.

Bush has at least been looking like a legit back the past 4 or 5 weeks.

LOL. Are you serious? I hate it for any "Franchise QB" that comes here (draft/FA) because they'll never live up to you fan's expectations. Dude is a top 5 QB and we still got people saying "He's not worth the #1 spot"...... :doh:


He played a whopping 13 games the first two season, and was tearing it up his 2nd year when he got injured. A 6 TD to 1 INT ratio with a 91.3 rating. So you expected him to have a great rookie year? Did Manning? Nope. Brady? Didn't even play. Aaron Rodgers? Guys he had a 39.8 rating!!!

The kid is worth the #1 spot he was selected at. Give the guy a few more years before you start bashing a top 5 QB. Thanks in advance.

Re: Around the NFL Week 12
 

Talk to me in 5 years when he's out of the league due to injuries

Re: Around the NFL Week 12

no argument with most of what you're saying, except this... he's not yet a top 5 qb. Brady, Rodgers, Manning (Both of 'em), Brees, Roethlisberger off the top of my head. I think he's in the "has potential to be great" group: Cam, Stafford, Ryan, Bradford. And those are all top picks... so his performance is so far commensurate with those drafted in equivalent position to his in the recent past.
