Well, that was not the performance by Matthew Stafford or the Los Angeles Rams that I expected. The Rams lost to the Arizona Cardinals by a score of 37-20, but were long since blown out before the final seconds ran off the clock.
Legends from Motown about Stafford’s faults as a quarterback were thought to be just that: fables told by Lions fans to scare away teams that wish to steal their franchise player away. Except that Stafford wasn’t in any apparent danger on Sunday when he was throwing balls well over the heads and well under the feet of many of his supposed targets.
