Stafford looked poor in his opening game, missing open throws and fumbling at the one-yard line. He lacks rushing upside, making him highly dependent on passing volume. While the host is giving him the benefit of the doubt after an overseas game, he is considered to have looked 'washed' and 'horrible,' and his status will be re-evaluated if struggles continue.NegativeMatchupSep 9, 2026

Matthew Stafford is a high-upside quarterback coming off an MVP-caliber season, paired with elite weapons in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.
