He just didn't have great touch or placement on bomb passes. Didn't have anything special with touch passes or short stuff either

    Now as for intermediate passes, he was lights out. Anything he could throw 15-30 yards, across the field, to the sidelines, yeah he was pretty incredible. Stafford could hit SPOTS with the best of them ... but I don't think he was that great at hitting receivers in stride
    Yeah, as much as I liked Stafford, I always felt he could be better at hitting receivers in stride.

        • Deep ball my ass.
          These two guys are going to be known for two things:
          1) Can Goff get done what Stafford couldn't (even with a cannon arm) - win the Lions 2nd playoff game in over 60 years. Everything after that is gravy.
          2) Can Stafford win the SB. He's not going to the Rams to get to the playoffs - or even get to the SB - they already did that with Goff.

            • Statistically, Stafford’s been among the best at hitting “deep” passes the last few years. But the NFL’s measure of deep is typically 20 yards or more. So Stafford made a lot of hay in that 15-30 or so range where he could rope stuff in on a line. But he’s never been great at putting air under the ball and dropping it in the bucket.

              • He is very good at pinpointing a long throw to a highpoint for the receiver to get. For awhile it seems that's all Marvin Jones could do. Also as many people including Jon Gruden noted great at hitting the turkey hole. Hahaha. Mainevent is correct on the drop in the bucket passes, most times he missed on the long passes it tended to be on the seam route where he would overthrow the receiver.

                    I’ll agree with that. The kind of looping Nick Foles style rainbow isn’t his at all.

                    Hes sure made some great deep throws in this league though although has often cannoned rather than beaten a DB with touch.

                    • Struggling with touch passes of any length was pretty obviously Stafford's biggest weakness. Made up for it with a lot of "cannon" throws only a few can make.

                        Which was the problem when his coaches insisted on dink and dunk "run setting up the pass" offense. It was playing directly to the worst parts of his game, and as a result didn't particularly make the team better. It's also why his turnovers didn't particularly drop whenever he "played it safe" or was "gunslinging."

                          Deep ball (very important comma) my ass.

                          Unless of course deep balling the ass is maybe a Friday night thing then ignore the grammar advice.
