Any of these guys would be better than the whiny bitch playing the position now.

You brought the unfounded memes though. Nice work.

You’re right though when his third year he threw for 5000 yards and 40 touchdowns his value was probably pretty good.  He also went 10-6, if that counts.

Does a QB’s win/loss record count for and against them or not?  Let me know and I’ll make sure to be consistent with that in future arguments.

11 years certainly carries more weight than 3, one which was a complete tear down. Stafford had Magatron. Fields had Dante Pettis and N’Keal Harry.

You can limit it to whatever subset of games you want.  First three seasons, first 38 starts - whatever you need.  Stats, drops, win/loss records - whatever you want.  Just be consistent and quit applying wildly different criteria to different people.

My bad, 12 years.

If you were conducting a scientific study, would you be more likely to accept the results of a 2 year study or a 6 month study?

So you’re just gonna keep repeating this instead of show the stats and W/L for Stafford’s first three years or first 38 starts I suppose?

Limit the data set however you need to, just apply the same standards to the two players.

The first decision was not bad. Guy was wide open in the end zone. He got hit as he threw.

Could have gotten the ball to his best receiver who was wide open underneath and might have still scored. He got impatient and made the wrong decision.

Feel free to only use Stafford’s first three years in the league, or first 38 starts.  You used Stafford’s whole time in Detroit before when you were making an argument about his record so I was following your lead, but if you want to limit it to his first three seasons that’s fine with me too.

I just want you to be consistent.  If drops count, I want them to count for everyone.  If W/L record is a valuable metric for a quarterback, I want it to be a valuable metric for all quarterbacks.  Argue using consistent logic.  Don’t tell me it’s unfair to hold the W/L record against one guy and not against another guy.

Stafford was like a 5 year veteran 38 starts in. He missed a lot of starts year 1-2. Not apples to apples.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that anyone making the argument that it’s too risky to move Fields and take a QB at 1 because what if he’s Matt Stafford can be safely mocked.

Seriously some of the more shameless work I’ve ever seen.

Do WHATEVER YOU NEED TO to the data.  Years, starts, snaps, pass attempts - literally whatever you need to.  Just stop with the thing where you apply a standard to other guys that you insist is completely unfair to apply to Justin Fields.

Eyeballing it, Stafford went 4-12 witht 20 TDs and 17 INTs and a 79 passer rating about 38 starts in. Year 4 of their rebuild. So, am I supposed to be impressed?

20 TDs while airing out 727 times (130 more than Mahomes this year).

And followed that up with 4-12 and 20 TDs on an insane 727 pass attempts. Is that a record?

Second most all time. Brady eclipsed it by 6 in 2022.

Is a QB supposed to elevate his team or just produce stats? I need clarity here.
