Breakdown Matthew Stafford

    Overview

  • A good quarterback can mean the world of difference in such a pass heavy league.
  • Experts don't even rank him among QB's. Either he is on a bye week or is just plain bad. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 32nd with 108.38 total points (9.85 avg).

  • Average points in the past two weeks have dipped quite a bit at 9.9.

    • QB Stats
