"Matthew Stafford"
With NFL training camps right around the corner for the upcoming 2021 season, I thought I would list some Matthew Stafford "Stats, Facts & Tidbits.
The Rams have made several big offseason splashes since Sean McVay was hired as their head coach on Jan 12, 2017.
The organization has also been aggressive during the regular season when they traded for OLB Dante Fowler in 2018 (for a 3nd round pick in 2019 & 5th round pick in 2020).
They pulled the trigger again in 2019 trading for All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey giving up two first round picks in (2020 & 2021).
On Jan 30, 2021, during an unexpected vacationing night in Cabo San Lucas, the Detroit Lions agreed to trade their starting quarterback (Matthew Stafford) to the Los Angeles Rams.
Practically nobody projected the Rams to be a front runner in the trade market for Stafford and it caught the NFL world by surprise.
To acquire the Lions seasoned starting quarterback, the Rams shipped their own former number one overall pick in 2016 (quarterback) Jared Goff, a 2021 3rd round draft pick, and two future first round picks in 2022 and 2023.
For the Rams, it was a handsome and heavy price to obtain the Lions QB that has never won a playoff game.
When the Stafford trade became official, it instantly became the biggest blockbuster offseason acquisition the Rams have made during the Sean McVay era.
For the duration of his career, Stafford played on mostly bad teams in Detroit. By his own metrics though, he wasn't as consistent as he could've been.
Stafford has put up some gaudy stats during his 12 seasons in the NFL, but there are question marks on his resume.
He never showed he could carry a Lions team on his shoulders and make those around him better enough to deliver a playoff victory.
For legitimate reasons, there is still a skeptical crowd of NFL talking heads and fans that believe Matthew lacks the (intangibles) of a winner and they need to see it in 2021 before they are willing to get on board.
If the Rams are able to carry over their 2020 season accomplishments to the 2021 season, Stafford will be expected to win a playoff game or two. He inherits a top heavy talented roster, a top 5 defense, and up and coming star running back Cam Akers.
Stafford will be under center for one of the NFL's best organizations in the 2021. For many, there will be little to no excuses if he doesn't deliver playoff victories.
Unless there are major injuries and the Rams some some how crumble this season, he will be one of the most talked about QB's all season.
A large of number of us fans believe Stafford will thrive in 2021 and beyond under the guidance of McVay, and the Rams unorthodox ways of NFL roster building.
No level headed Rams fans are going to guarantee Stafford is a lock to have an MVP super star season, and bet their life savings on it.
After Stafford was traded the Rams, the fanbase was ignited and Las Vegas bumped the Rams to a top 5 Super Bowl favorite.
In 2021, Stafford and McVay will be heavily scrutinized under the bright lights of Hollywood.
They have some big shoes to fill after what Ariens and Brady pulled off last season in Tampa Bay.
Count me all in with you folks that believe the McVay and Stafford tandem are capable of elevating the Rams from a good playoff caliber team, to a legitimate Super Bowl winning contender. And not just this coming season, but over the next few years.
(Megatron) Former Lions WR Calvin Johnson on on Matthew Stafford Going to the Rams: ‘I’m Happy For Him’
"You know what, it sucked that they didn’t let me go but they let Matthew go. But, hey, you know, it is what it is," he said.
"I’m not back in the family with the Lions or anything like that," Johnson said.
"It would be nice if they try to resolve things, but that’s neither here nor there."
“I’m happy for him,” Johnson said of Stafford.
“He’s happy that he’s out in California. Him and his beautiful family, they’re loving their time out there.
When he’s comfortable, he’s good where he’s at. You can only expect good things from him. I look forward to seeing him out there.”
T.J. Hockenson (TE for the Lions) expressed how the Lions players want Matthew Stafford to win a ring.
“There’s not a guy in our locker room that’s not rooting for that guy to get a ring.
I mean, all of us loved him.” “He’s one of those guys, again, for the boys, for all of us, he was like, ‘Y’all do all this during the week.
Y’all do everything I ask of you, and I’m going to go out there and do everything I can for you guys,’” Hockenson said. “Everybody on our team respected that guy. Like everybody loved him.
He will forever put a stamp on my career and in the city of Detroit.
He’s, I mean, he was, like I said, one of the best — the best player I’ve ever.” Hockenson called Stafford “probably the best dude, the best player” he’s ever been around and told a story of how the QB threw a no-look pass to him in practice one time, which caught him off-guard.
It’s not something Stafford does often, but it is a little wrinkle Rams receivers should be ready for.
“He no-looked passed me, and I’m like, I double caught it. I got my feet down and everything. I looked at him and I was like, ‘Dude, did you just no-look me?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, I saw it caught you off guard.’ I was like, ‘Yup. It did.’ He would do anything for his dudes, too,” the tight end said.
