It's a shitty thing to achieve for a QB in a lot of ways IMO. Means he's had a lot of teams that can't run the ball for shit. :laugh4:

he was throwing the ball when every team knew he HAD TO THROW...

impressive because there was no other option so many times in detroit...

so glad he is our option...

He's the fastest to 50,000 for a number of reasons. First, he can play quarterback with the best of them. Second, Detroit has sucked the entire time he was there except for 3 seasons. The guy has played more ball trailing than any of the "big names" like Brady and Rodgers. He's #7 (tied) in game winning drives (41) and #6 (tied) in 4th quarter comebacks (33). Warner has 11 and 7. Why? Because he was leading most of the time. Now Stafford has joined a team that is better than the best Lions team he ever played for and he's showing what he can do. His career QB rating was 89.9 in Detroit. His best year was the 8 game season he played in 2019 (106.0) and the only season he had a QB rating north of 100. This year, despite learning one of the most difficult offenses in the NFL, as well as learning his receivers, he's playing at a 108.2 clip, almost 20.0 points higher than his 12 year average. And he's raised his career QB rating to 91.3.....in just 14 games. Think about that for a second.....he played 164 games at 89.9 and in 14 games he's raised it to 91.3. That would probably be the equivalent of a 12 year .290 hitter joining the Dodgers and in 1 year raising his career average to .300. It would take a helluva pretty good season! It ridiculous that Murray was chosen over Stafford. But maybe he's still got a better award waiting for him. SB MVP.

More like getting easy passing yards from prevent defenses.

A perfect example of what Raheem Morris always says.Let’s hope The Rams win it all.

Time to accept that Stafford wil be a HOFer. His winning percentage will go way up in McVay’s offense in the next 5 years. He will have many opportunities in the playoffs and will probably participate in more than one Super Bowl, with more than 65k yards passing in his career.

As always people seem to look at a QBs win loss record as the ultimate judge of a QB. Never take in to account the team around them. Rodgers is the best QB I have ever seen, but Brady is the GOAT. The fastest to 50k especially with all the come backs tells me Stafford is a very special QB that until now has been ignored due to his AWFULL organization. People say he didn't elevate his team like others have. Well that is relative. As bad as Detroit has been, you don't know how much worse they would have been. Maybe a few no win seasons, who knows. How stupid is it to blame Stafford for no playoff wins and then blame how bad the team has been for him getting to 50K faster than anybody else. I just don't understand the thought process.

Hold up there, pard.

Wasn’t a damn thing easy about playing in Detroit for the Lions.
Tell Jared Goff that. Give him one of The Best WR’s in NFL history.

I’m not going to take anything away from Matthew Stafford.He needs to win though. I’ll keep saying what Raheem Morris always says.

As The Rams DC he will be held accountable.I like this Rams team.There is a lot of talent & ascending players. Will be a tough 3 games before the Playoffs.

I remember a while ago when someone on one of these boards was trying to argue that Eli was better than Peyton Manning, because he had two rings, and Peyton only had one at the time. True story.

I can't imagine someone arguing that, buy it is ironic that Eli was huge in their two wins, while Peyton was not.

They beat the Bears with defense and running the ball in the rain. And he won with the Broncos while being effectively a game manager with a dominant defense carrying the team.

makes no sense…JG is not having it easy either.

So #9 had one WR on the worst managed team in the league? We part ways here if the argument is that Stafford had it easy.

Later.

passing yards is a stat that can be taken various ways for sure

however this year we are 5-1 when Stafford passes for 300 yards.

Like I said I’m not taking anything away from Stafford.He still needs to win though.The 3 games of pick 6’s added big to The Rams 3 game Lossing streak. Then again it doesn’t matter now either. It’s about Winning at the highest level. He has 2 of The Best WR’s in The NFL right Now & could add Robert Woods as the 3rd if he was healthy.

I like how Matthew Stafford has stepped up since the Jags game.He is owning it.The hit he took against the Cards & then goes in the next play & The Rams scored showed his toughness once again.

BTW - I could careless what he did in DETROIT. He is a Ram now. Hope you don’t have to use the excuse of playing for a bad franchise.It’s not easy winning in The NFL Period.

See Ya - hopeful SuperBowl Victory

First off get the saying right. It's I couldn't care less. Second, if you couldn't care less then why comment at all. Don't belittle his accomplishments with Detroit, because they are actually more impressive due to the bullshit org. You bring up having one of the greatest receivers like he didn't have anything to do with it. All you have to do is look at Kupp. Never in the pro bowl to being the best in the league. All due to the QB. Kupp has been doing his thing from the beginning, but now, at of the blue, he is the best. Only one thing has changed. QB!!

Yeah I hate the championship myopia when it comes to ranking the greatest QBs. I mean we all know the team around them matters too, so some guys do get fucked over. Had a dude at a bar once try really hard to convince me that Marino was shit because he lost the one Super Bowl he was in and "quit" thereafter. I mean I don't really give a shit about the Dolphins but that dude was a fucking assassin at QB.
