      Joe Burrow got put into an incompetent franchise and took them to the SB in year 2. I know this HOF class was a mop up/ weak class but like.. Stafford isn't a hall of fame. Come on. Let's get real…

      Funny how all those stars without masks and kids have to wear masks to school, also Lebron James attending the game without a mask, even being vaccinated you can still spread Covid, isn’t Lebron making his teammates at risk, NBA won’t play Kyrie in all games because he’s unvaccinated, so a unvaccinated person who can get and spread Covid is different than a vaccinated person who can get and spread Covid? And LA is one of the strictest MANDATES, doesn’t say a word with Celebrities don’t wear there masks and they’re first ones to give a opinions how bad the virus is.

      Back to the topic, Stanford is a great Quarterback, leading Lions to victory’s, probably only 3 good players to play with him Suh, Megatron, Stafford, he won alot of games, and Sherman trying to criticize him a joke, he should worry about him drunk driving, hitting pedastrians, and trying to attack his wife and her family, and I don’t think he’s that good, That Seattle line, linebackers were awesome, that’s why he looked so good, quarterback’s didn’t have time throw, and the little time they had they were knocked it quick, that’s what made him look good

      There's no doubt the Lions have been going through miserable miserable years as a franchise but we have had some phenomenal players Barry Sanders Calvin Johnson and now one of the Lions phenomenal players made it all the way yet without the Lions franchise tag in the super bowl he still deserves his dude, and there is a chance he could make the Hall of Fame he has time left.

      Matthew has been a puppet for NFL since day one, it’s about time they scripted an Emmy year for him!! Rigged idiots !! Hall of Shame !!!!!

      No HOF’R. Telling me stafford can get in but Patrick Willis hasn’t gotten in. Stafford is a good QB and that’s about it. He is in the same tier with Dak Prescott and Derek Carr in my opinion. He had way too many bad decisions throughout the playoffs. Nearly gave the game away on a horrible forced deep throw to the niners and 2 picks in the super bowl.

      Hopefully the officials were at that lame empty parade lol hope they get invited to the ring ceremony and they get their rings too. They earned it.

      Matthew Stafford was TOO loyal to the Lions 🦁. He stayed there about four years too long. Gave them EVERYTHING he had, to a really bad organization….. for TWELVE years! That said volumes about his class and character. Never complained ONCE! It was KARMA that sent him to LA to get a ring. He got the chance that Archie Manning never did. Stafford had the Lions in games that they never even should've BEEN IN, forget winning or losing! He is a BEAST of a quarterback, and the Rams would've made that trade 10 times over, to get a gunslinger of his caliber.

      No disrespect to Stafford but he absolutely shouldn’t make the HOF at least where he is at so far. He’s made the pro bowl once. I understand he was a part of possibly the worst organization in the NFL for 12 years. I understand how he won the super bowl in his first year with the Rams. But plenty of QB’s on bad teams have made the pro bowl more than once. As of now, he is not worthy of the HOF.

      Matt Stafford is not a gold jacket guy. Stafford is great but not all time great. He has had a top three wide out of all time arguably and couldn't win a playoff game. My Patriots were a laughing stock before Brady arrived. Stafford gets no pass and should be indicted for having that level wide out and couldn't win a playoff game. Stafford tried to lose the defense dropped interceptions right in there hands. He is not a hall of famer and will only get in because of longevity never considered top five at his position never all pro. He underachieved for being a number 1 pick with his arm talent.
