The problem with articles made by people who are more fans than reporters and who are more fans than analytical analysts is that they don't look at the obvious. The lack of a run game has nothing to do with Stafford but a porous and horrid offensive line. The Rams were successful in their offensive line was great as every team is and the Rams are unsuccessful when they're offensive line sucked as most teams are as well. Although I don't think Stafford was an aid to the running game until you get the offensive line fixed you can't put the blame on him.
