Tyrod is our starting QB. I don't think anybody who watched that game could say otherwise. He made some really tough throws and has excellent vision. He's got a bit of a slow release, but so does Manuel and Cassel. Our backup situation is iffy. Do we go with Manuel, who could have upside? The two minute drill (though against a bunch of future car salesmen) was perfect. He may have the tools to succeed. Honestly, I'm not a fan of the guy as a starter, but I think he's a fine backup.

But Cassel, past his prime though he may be, is still a good enough game manager. He won't be able to put the team on its back and pull out a miracle win, but he can at least not lose us the game.

Either way, Taylor is an exciting prospect. I legit think he could be a top QB.

Kirk and Mccoy.

The Redkins Oline must have an insurance policy out on RG3 then.

The casual NFL fan has no idea what they're talking about for the most part. They'll watch an ESPN highlight or one Monday Night game and come to a conclusion.

I've had plenty a debate back in the day about Mark Sanchez being a better QB than Stafford, when Stafford sat out the first two years, or how Colin Kaepernick was going to torch the league.

They bought Kaep and Sanchez jerseys in droves, watched their Monday Night games and listened to ESPN commentary about them. Where are those #6 and #7 jerseys now?

Throughout it all I've always maintained Stafford is a special QB with abilities and traits that can't be taught.

Now it's Matthew Stafford coming off of an 11-5 playoff season with 6 nationally televised games.

We all troll and bullshit here and there but if you honestly deny Matthew Staffords ability and potential to lead a Super Bowl team you:

A.) Haven't watched him play and don't understand the game of football

B.) Are a Green Bay Packers fans in denial that there is now a force to be reckoned with.

I'd go with B looking at the polls, considering the size of the Green Bay fan base and how many of them are band wagoners.

Telling people they don't understand football when you don't even watch football.

 

[RellyRell28]

I wonder how many times Kas spam to get that shit to 37%.

More like how many times NFL-Gaf spammed to get the 45%

Rell please you damn well know NFL-GAF don't go to fucking PFT.

 

[MechDX]

You know @DetroitLions never did get my #AskALion question answered.

"Why does Matt Stafford look like Chunk from the goonies?"

 

[unknownstranger]

No one has thought Sanchez has been good since he's played in the NFL.

Kaepernick would either still be on the bench or on another team if Alex Smith never got hurt. Outside of him playing Green Bay, he's been slightly above average (if that) at best. Neither him or Sanchez has had a WR remotely close to Megatron.

But if you're basing your comparison on looks then good job.

Spoiler

Personally I'd be the 18%.

Yeah, it was an elaborate troll plot to rig a poll to say a guy with zero playoff wins is underachieving.

 

[WanderingWind]

QB playoff wins again, huh?

 

[sf2fanatic]

We should of done a RGIII chart as we did for Bradford

kap is still the #4 selling jersey in the league you dumb motherfucker!

p.s. how many playoff wins does stafford have?

 

[cdyhybrid]

You're right, they're actually paying him because they want passing statistic records.

Kap was Harbaughs guy, no way he doesn't eventually see the field. His run to the SB pretty much marred his deficiencies. They all came to fruition the next year though when we only had Boldin/VD while Crabs tore his achilles. Last year they tried to adapt him to being a pocket passer with a bunch of quick passes that DB's would just sit on. It was maddening.

I think this year he SHOULD regain some of his form from 2012 and 2013 (to a lesser extent).

We still won't win many games though.

Regular season stats mean shit and the playoffs are what counts. Stafford is 0-2 in the playoffs.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

who gives a shit about playoff wins? what have playoff wins ever done for anyone? remember that one time in a regular season game where the lions were losing against the browns and then stafford got hurt but he wouldn't come out of the game and then he scored the game winning touchdown? that will always be remembered as one of the greatest moments in human history.

do you remember who won the superbowl that year or any other year? can you name even one playoff winning team from the past 15 years? no, but you bet your bottom dollar that you remember matt stafford beating the browns in the waning seconds of that titanic clash between the lions and browns

I'm not even defending Stafford or anything, but whining about playoff wins as some metric for one player's success on a team of 53 is the shit people who get all their NFL knowledge from Madden and Kornheiser do. The offseason is over. We should probably pretend like we actually watch the occasional game of football now and then.

Mayo on a hotdog is something I would never do.

 

[Kastrioti]

A 49er and Seahawk collaboration to try to break down Matthew Staffords accomplishments.

We've got Seahawks fans cosigning 49er fans posts about Matthew Stafford.

You're both scared and somehow found each other for comfort.

The NFC West is garbage. The Junior Varsity of the NFC.

I would make fun of the Lions but that's like making fun of the special needs kid, and I promise that I would stop bullying.

:jnc at Kas first calling out other people for being casual fans and then going into Off-Topic and getting salty about the fucking Ottoman Empire so he has an excuse to be Islamaphobic.

Great start to the day.

So robutto already with a concussion and a shoulder stinger.

Is there a vegas bet on Robutto getting hurt before Bradford?

Had a nightmare that the Pats never cheated and all those post season wins and SB were legitimate.

I woke up terrified, but once I realized that it was all just a dream my mind became tranquil.

Your team has been proven a bunch of cheats and it's the end of their run anyway. Time to pink hat someone else that once again, isn't your Jags.
