Just showing that you may be a bit hypocritical to use the eye test
for your purposes to discredit the defense, but not for Stafford
who you are 100% behind and use stats to back that up
I don't know what that even means. 100% behind? If that means I'm hoping for the best from him, that's true. If it means I've supported every decision he's made, then you're making things up to try and "win" an argument.
All I've said is that as frustrating as Stafford has been at times, we're still talking about the #2 ranked QB in the league. That's up from #23 last year. Conversely, the defense went from #1 and is now #16. Of course, that's only in points allowed. That obscure, hardly used metric to gauge defenses. I know the Rams are probably #1 in sacks on 2nd down between the opponents 30-40 yard line on Thursday games in October.
I still don't understand why you are so defensive of Morris and the drop he has led this defense to. I find it very difficult to believe that you think the loss of whichever players warrants that kind of drop? Are you suggesting we'd have the same defense as last year if those guys were still here?
