So do you think Stafford is overrated?

Stafford is a product of being a super talented player drafted by a terrible franchise and being stuck there. Stafford isnt the type to try to force his way out. If I had to use a comparison Id say Stafford is sorta like Kevin Garnett of the NBA. Garnett was this great player but was stuck on a bad Timberwolves team so he didnt win. He made the playoffs eight consecutive times with the Timberwolves but got bounced in the 1st round and alot of them were sweeps so he didnt even get a single playoff win in a series. His last playoff run with the Timberwolves he did lead them to the Western Conference Finals and they lost. He finally had enough and saw the writing on the wall and wanted out. He wanted to be on a team where he could win a title. Thats when he joined the Celtics with Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. The very first season with the Celtics he wins a championship by beating the Lakers. The second season they went back to the Finals and lost to those same Lakers. Then the third season and his final season with the Celtics they went to the Eastern Conference Finals and they lost in 7 games to the Big 3 in Miami with LeBron, Wade, and Bosh.

We then found out that Garnett said he wish he wouldve left the Timberwolves sooner than he did. The guy literally went won a championship, went to another NBA Finals losing in 7 games, and an Easter Conference losing in 7 games right after he left the Timberwolves which is a bad franchise. So he found instant success leaving a bad franchise and going to an historical great franchise in Boston. His legacy is cemented now. So thats what Stafford his done. He went from a bad franchise in Detroit to a great franchise with the Rams and he has found instant success. Stafford is not overrated and I do think its fair to compare him to ARod bc if Stafford played in Green Bay for as long as ARod has Id go on the record to say he would have just as much if not more success than ARod. Now Im not saying Stafford would be a multi MVP winner. He certainly wouldnt be (1-4) in NFCCG and only having one Superbowl appearance. It wouldnt shock me if Stafford and the Rams be back in the Superbowl next season or the season after next. It definitely wouldnt shock me if Stafford lead the Rams to three straight NFCCG. So I just think that we have to put everything into perspective with Stafford and understand he spent his entire career outside of this season with Detroit. He had his moments and he put up great numbers. Now he is with a great franchise and he has found instant success. ARod has been with an historical great franchise since he stepped in the league. 

Stafford has always been rated about where he should. In the 2nd tier of Quarterbacks behind the hall of famers.
