Detroit had talent they just didn't have the coaching stuff who used them correctly like they had to. they had Stafford, they had Megatron, they had Darius slay, they had a bunch of players over the years they just never had a good coaching staff to actually do anything of it and the one coach who did Jim Caldwell got fired after four seasons they gave up on Jim Caldwell too quickly

Just came here to inform everyone that about something I've been saying for years, this is addressed for all the Stafford sceptics. 1 week ago Stafford became the tied 6th best qb OF ALL TIME when it comes to game winning drives with 43 game wining drives. 1. Payton manning 54 2. Tom Brady 53 3. Drew brees 53 4. Big Ben 53 5. Dan Marino 47 6. STAFFORD 7. Brett Favre 43 8 Matt Ryan. 42 Against the Bengals he got his 44th Game winning drive and is 6th and he is only 33. He has had 3 game winning drives this post season ALONE. This is the REAL STAFFORD. He is CLUTCH, that's it... I've heard many critics about his inconsistencies and have unfairly overcriticized him about his play in a new system. THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR YEARS, If Stafford ever gets freed from that cursed franchise that yields no good for anyone who enters the door, ITS OVER. Guess what? Superbowl in the first year on a new team. Heck he has produced 2 of the greatest qb-reciever connections of all time, MEGATRON and Kupp (1 and 2) . There is NO FINALS MVP KUPP without Stafford and THAT HAS TO BE RECOGNISED. What more is there to say? Stafford has been elite for 7 years straight and is a CERTIFIED HOF'er. Bye... Edit: I proud of AD and ODELL as well. Those messages have blessed the league for years and they deserved this chip.

Burrow did very little in the game, it didn't matter. He's been way over-hyped. His postseason hasn't been anywhere near as great as is being reported. NFL hype is out of control in general, but no one is more over-hyped than Burrow. He was adequate in the postseason, but he had a lot of bad picks and near picks and takes way, way too many sacks. He doesn't handle pocket pressure well at all.
Did you all forget big Ben's drive and late touchdown to Santonio Holmes Against the cardinals
From Vikings fan, matt took beating playing the purple but hung tough he deserved the ring
Micheal Irving has been killing it on first take still miss max tho :(
I guess Tom Brady needs to come back out of retirement and remind you guys of his greatness.
Congrats Staff from Detroit
Not a Rams or Lions fan but great props for Stafford ! This guy just needed a good team :D He delivered ! He could have been the Super Bowl MVP ! This guy proved to be a great quarterback. If the Rams stay together moving forward they may win one or two more ! That is a great team !
Anybody who watched enough of Stafford in Detroit have been telling y'all this for years. That man has been 5 arm talent since he stepped on the turf! He was forged in the fire at Georgia then in Detroit he was built for this.
And no one is showing the helmet to helmet Stafford took in the Superbowl after he tossed the ill-advised deep pass that was picked off in the end zone. Protecting the QB is supposed to be the NFL's top priority in games, and h-2-h is supposed to be an automatic penalty. Not to mention it was from behind.
Not only has Stafford been playing much better than these media guys want to admit, but Burrow hasn't played anywhere near the hype. He's had several bad passes and bad picks in this postseason. He threw one of the worst almost interceptions late against KC I've ever seen. It was a simple throwaway on the sideline and he threw it directly to the Chiefs linebacker. He's lucky the linebacker dropped it. It was worse than any Jimmy G throw. And all the sacks aren't just the O line's fault. Burrow doesn't handle pocket pressure well and goes down way too often. Burrow has several flaws that everyone wants to ignore because they have so much love for him for some reason. I guess they look at him as the great white hope for QB or something.

40 plus year lions fan... love Stafford. Good for him. HOF.
Even with a SB win and gaudy counting stats, he still severely lacks in the accolade department. 1x Super Bowl Champion 1x Pro Bowl (should be more) Comeback POTY For reference here is ringless great Ken Anderson (not a HOF) 1x MVP 1x OPOY 1x 1st Team All Pro 1x 2nd Team All Pro 4x Pro Bowl 2x Pass Yard Leader 4x Pass Rating Leader

@@Co-nx9ww Who cares? He has 0 all-pro selections and has never been considered the best at his position at any point in his career. He’s a good QB, but he doesn’t deserve to be in the same group of QBs as Brees, Manning, Elway, Marino, Brady, Rodgers, Farve, Aikman, Stabauch, Montana, etc.

Look at staffords stats then come back
What about Joe Flaccos playoff and Super Bowl run in 2012-2013 ?
The Rams are a well built team but theres something to be said about Stafford winning a SB in his 1st year on a high quality team
I am humble for Matthew Stafford OBJ and Aaron Donald being a league of their own I'm not a Lions fan even though Detroit Lions are pathetic it's a change of narrative story in SoFi Stadium showtime era of LA Rams
Matthew Stafford won a Superbowl championship before Detroit. Congratulations Matthew Stafford.
I love Michael Irvin talking football on First Take.

Nobody talking about the 4th down run by kupp ! So clutch
Right ggs to rams and Stafford, however for Dan to say that type of run has never been done in postseason he may wanna look at 2001 and bradys sb run in that postseason unless I am wrong if so apologies

The bengals O line is mainly why they couldn’t do anything on offense in the second half They blew it They were fine in the first half , but their secondary is horrible too
Also, the Rams bailed Matt Stafford in this Super Bowl game, he had a very average game. And if it wasn't for a lack of creative play calling from Cincinnati from the final drives from defense and offense, we wouldn't even be having this conversation at all. If Matt can continue to do this for a few years - doesnt have to win another SB but at least get them deep in the playoffs, then he's a HOF.

Whenever a QB moves to a team with a lot of talent in need of a QB, it helps a lot. The reason is because QBs don't control nearly as much of the game as the media portrays. QBs need to be on a really good team to have a chance at a SB. Otherwise, it ain't happening.
