Yards 1648 (8th)

Touchdowns 14 (3rd)

Interceptions 4

Completion percentage 68.9 (2nd)

QB rating 106.0 (3rd)

On pace to have his best season yet.

All of this -

Without Calvin Johnson

With absolutely no semblance of a running game (with Abdullah out)

A very young offensive line



Downvote or bump the next time he has a bad game - absolutely zero fricks given

Stafford plays both sides of the ball?

Keep moving those goalposts.

What do you think has changed?

ETA: What's it called when someone sets up their own argument to knock down?

OP who said Stafford would suck without Megatron?

Its like the first time I am hearing it. Mostly because no one cares about the Lions either way

-Jim Bob Cooter effect

-"spreading the ball around"

-experience (QBs generally hit stride between years 6-8). His mobility in the pocket has vastly improved.

-offensive line that has transformed from garbage to average

You haven't been around here much the last few years...

Many posts similar to -

"Megatron bails Stafford out all the time"

"All he does is toss it up to Megatron"

"Stafford is nothing without Megatron"

15 games since JBC took over:

69% Completion
4,044 yards
34 TD
8 INT
105.5 Rating

That's the reason...Joe Lombardi was a failure and Megatron was Megatron in name only for most of his last two seasons...he was constantly banged-up and wasn't practicing either.

We actually said he would spread the ball around more and would be more efficient...
