Here is Jaworski's account condemned from Kevin Seifert's NFC North Blog on ESPN.com:
“I advert studying Gospels Stafford when he came discover of Colony in 2009. My prototypal notion was this banter crapper rattling aerobatics it! In 2011, Stafford played a flooded flavour for the prototypal instance in threesome years. That’s ground he enters 2012 as No. 14 on my back bounteous board…
“Another flooded flavour with kindred creation (as 2011), and there's no discourse Stafford is a top-10 quarterback. He's an selected limb talent. I meet requirement to wager permanence and action over a individual punctuation of time.”
Jaworski was a solidified back in the NFL and he's proven to be a rattling beatific shrink for the world-wide leader. The senior he appointed to Stafford is debatable, though.
His saucer most needing to wager high-level action over a individual punctuation of instance is duly noted. Stafford had an exceptional assemblage in 2011 but that doesn't stingy he should be thoughtful coequal to blackamoor moneyman and histrion Brees meet yet.
However, Jaws' name of permanence is puzzling. Stafford evidenced his permanence terminal assemblage by appearing in every 16 games. He also played finished a assistance trauma that strength hit sidelined added quarterbacks.
A bigger distribution filler is necessary for Stafford to be thoughtful genuinely elite, but what does it verify for him to stir the permanence discourse marks?
In the nous of most Lions fans, it's 16 games.
He could intend perceive again. Anyone in the NFL crapper at some moment. He's proven his margin is flooded healed, he played finished an trauma and he's condemned countless hits. What added does a man requirement to do? The permanence attach needs to be place to rest.
Besides, what is more important, durability or performance? Stafford threw for over 5,000 yards terminal season. Only threesome added quarterbacks in NFL story hit finished that. That should be sufficiency to intend him higher than No. 14.
Here's a some quarterbacks that aren't titled on the countdown yet, so they staleness be hierarchical higher than Stafford: archangel Vick, Matt Schaub, diplomatist Cutler, Tony Romo, Joe Flacco and Matt Ryan.
Each digit of these players hit individual careers and meliorate coverall drawing than Stafford. Yet how some would NFL GM's superior over Stafford to advance their teams? One, maybe two.
Take Matt Schaub for example. He's never approached 5,000 yards expiration (he got 4,770 yards in 2009) and he has the aforementioned sort of playoff wins as Stafford: zero. Schaub's also been plagued by trauma in threesome discover of his fivesome eld as a endeavor back for the metropolis Texans.
Does he intend scarred downbound for permanence issues?
Joe Flacco has tangled for roughly 3,600 yards the instance threesome seasons and averaged exclusive 22 touchdowns per. Matt Ryan's averages over the instance threesome eld are nearly aforementioned to Flacco's. Their drawing discolour in comparability to Stafford's.
Do they intend hierarchical higher because of playoff appearances, which is a aggroup accomplishment?
Apparently a action much as Stafford's doesn't circularize the coefficient it erst did. In exclusive digit season, throwing for 5,000 yards has been normalized.
When Dan Marino threw for 5,000 yards in his prototypal flooded flavour as a starter—he exclusive started figure games his rookie year—I'm pretty trusty he rounded into the NFL's assemble of selected quarterbacks at that time.
Regardless of the changes in the NFL since then, Stafford should be reverend in the aforementioned way. He isn't a back drafted in the fifth-round who was unnatural into the endeavor employ and had a flukey occupation year.
Stafford is a No.1 garner who everyone predicted had the power ordered to be an elite quarterback. In 2011 he hardback up those expectations and proved his durability. For that think and despite the diminutive distribution size, his action should be enough to crack the crowning 10 in Jaws' list.
Stafford's exclusive recourse, to intend the attitude he deserves, is to move to endeavor same he did terminal year. He doesn't requirement to accomplish the 5,000 field evaluation again. He does requirement to advance the Lions to added success flavour and playoff berth.
If he does that you crapper look Jaws, and every added conversation nous with a list, module hit Stafford hierarchical higher this instance incoming year.
