Why does it seem that Detroit Lions fans giving up on quarterback Matthew Stafford? That’s a question I wish I could answer myself. Stafford’s season-ending back injury really split the Lions fanbase more than I thought it would.
Ever since Stafford was drafted number one overall in the 2009 NFL Draft by Detroit, he’s been a polarizing player. When I say polarizing, I don’t mean it in a bad way. I’m just saying that you either love Stafford, or you hate him.
The people that love Stafford, like myself think he possessed elite-level talent.
