Donovan McNabb Says Stafford Hasn't Earned His Contract
Looks like McNabb is butthurt over Matt Stafford's contract.
Shut up McNabb you haven't earned your microphone. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-his-contract/ "For the second time this offseason, former NFL quarterback Donovan McNabb has weighed in on a current NFL quarterback’s contract. And for the second time, McNabb has expressed his disapproval. In March, McNabb said Tony Romo isn’t worth the money the Cowboys have agreed to pay him. Now McNabb has weighed in on Matthew Stafford’s new contract with the Lions, and once again McNabb believes the team is overpaying." |

His potential is what they're banking on, his production with an overall very average bunch is what they based their faith on... you wouldnt pay top money for his talents in a league full of aging greats and a bunch of who knows? Give him a ravens-like team and he probably beats Flacco in most statistical categories. |

Personally, I think Stafford has all the talent in the world but his mechanics are shit, his accuracy is inconsistent at best, he relies far too much on Calvin Johnson, and his decision making leaves a lot to be desired for. He's basically a Jay Cutler. Good, but probably not good enough (unless you give him a top tier defense and innovative coaching staff).

Based on the football experts in this thread, the Lions need to move away from Matt Stafford.
Perhaps trade him and roll the dice in the draft. Is this what I'm hearing?

Is the conversation whether Detroit had a better option or whether Stafford EARNED a big guaranteed contract? You are such a ****ing idiot. |

I am not surprised you dont understand the difference between "earned something" and being in the right place at the right time. |

You either pay him or move away from him. Detroit paid him. Could they have paid him less? Doubt it. It's really that simple. This is a pretty dumb conversation. But it's to be expected from this place, where real QBs are constantly pilloried.

He's just not elite. And according to what I read on this site, you can't win a Super Bowl without elite QB play. Stafford has flashed, but last year was absolute regression. |

Look Detroit did what they had to do, McNabb has a point and to act like he doesn't is ridiculous. He didn't say Stafford was worthless loser. He just said basically wow that seem excessive. |

It's excessive, but that's the market for a young, strong armed QB with that sort of potential. Any team in the same situation would have paid that.

The fact this fanbase hasn't figured that out after all this time is disturbing. If Matt Stafford hit free agency and we gave him this contract some of you would be complaining. Unbelievable.

If you have a QB who is in his prime, has the potential, and has proven to capableble of throwing for 5000 yards what he has earned should be a record setting contract in any year that he puts pen to paper..
Its not what you've earned. Its what youre worth. |
