That's a joke, right?

Stafford was top 10 in just about every category that matters. He made everyone else on that team better just because he was there.

For example:

Cooper Kupp
2020 - 124 targets, 974 yards, 3 TD
2021 - 191 targets, 1947 yards, 16 TD

Van Jefferson
2020 - 31 targets, 220 yards, 1 TD
2021 - 89 targets, 802 yards, 6 TD

Robert Woods also on pace to surpass 2020 stats when he went on IR.

I would have gladly taken Stafford - even for the price the Rams paid (two 1sts, a 3rd, and a QB). We probably couldn't get it done because we didn't have a QB that the Lions wanted (and he didn't want to come here...lol).

Lol, that's damn good.

If no one to touches you before you hurt your knee in football, it's basically a guaranteed torn ACL.

Alabama had 2 guys that would have been 1st round picks as WRs and still could be, tear their ACL's.

It's just crazy how ACLs tear so easily. 1 misstep, and boom, gone.

On the one hand players in general have gotten bigger and faster over time, certainly faster than human evolution can adapt.

On the other, stats suggest that the injury level has been pretty steady for the last few years, and that's likely as a result of rule changes, the CBA (reducing player exposure to risk in team activities) and better treatments available. While it's mainly from player union pressure, the NFL does seem to be adapting to the need to keep players healthy. I'd suspect with more guaranteed salaries coming in that will improve.

Hard pass for sure. He was a 1 hit wonder.

Yep, Stafford is not TB12 or AR level, but he's not far off. Goff is a JAG by comparison. Stafford has and will continue to make dumb plays, but he also gives the Rams something they haven't had since Warner. Plus, after years in the wilderness in Detroit, you don't know how capable he will be in the latter stages of the playoffs. You know what Goff was.

I agree I'd have taken Stafford if the chance was there, and it's why I'd consider Ryan; both could bridge the gap until we find our guy in the draft. And arguably both better than anyone we've had since Theismann.

He's better than Goff but is he all those picks and $$ better? That's what I was meaning by that. We'll see in the playoffs, remember Jared Goff helped take that team to a SB.

This is true, but he underperformed in the post season (compared to his regular season) if I remember correctly.

Stafford made his whole contract worth it when he hit Kupp deep to seal the game against the Bucs (after the rams nearly blew it).

There’s no way Goff takes that shot and wins it.

I didn’t know where else to put this I didn’t wanna start a whole new thread.
Was laying on couch today about to take a nap and I see pro bowl is about to come on.I watched 3 plays and turned it off.Omg I thought years past were bad,the non tackling has just gotten out of hand.If they’re not even gonna try they should make it flag football, that would actually make it more exciting.Then I see article a few minutes ago that Micah Parons said he was gonna go all out and play like Sean Taylor and piss everyone off. Since I only watched the three plays I didn’t see it but I doubt very much that that happened, But I did see him win the fastest man competition, the pro bowl competition was a lot more exciting than the game and Russel Wilson was a bad ass once again in it,man I wish we could get him
