As lauded as Stafford has been, he’s 1-2 against good teams this year while just getting waxed by SF and he’s played poorly in all 3 losses. The one win was against the Tampa team that just lost to WFT but since it was Brady people put Stafford on a pedestal.

I think it's more that it was the defending SB champs who had a great D on paper. Bucs D has turned out to actually suck this year as offenses figured them out and with some injuries but at the time of that game, the Rams more or less crushing them was pretty significant.

 

Haven't watched the Rams or Stafford that much this year so can't speak to their losses or how he's played, but in general watching Stafford with the Lions I think he's definitely a legit 2nd tier franchise QB. He carried that Lions team for a decade with literally nothing around him on either side of the ball except Calvin Johnson for part of it. The Rams have depth issues throughout their team. Not surprising when they trade all their draft picks for big names and not all of them meet expectations. Stafford should have them contending more seriously than Goff did but he was never going to solve all their problems. People heap praise on the Rams for their aggressiveness and adding all these big names but I've never been sold on that strategy. Having quality starters and depth pieces on rookie deals is absolutely critical to building a successful team in the salary cap era. They don't really have that, and while McVay is a good coach he can only do so much with a handful of superstars and nothing behind them.

it did look like he was just jogging until he saw the ball was gonna be intercepted, but I couldn't really tell for sure if it was quitting on the route or if the ball went very far from where he expected

Yeah, looked like he headed to the sideline expecting it to be thrown there, then starting jogging trying to figure out where the ball was actually going. Think they just weren't on the same page on that one.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
