Dont know if I would go that far, Id take Stafford over Cutler anyday. Both have had some injury issues, but Stafford is 5yrs younger and imo better right now as well.
I wouldnt take Stafford over Cutler, sure Stafford had a good year but he was throwing to Calvin Johnson, the best WR in the NFL. Stafford literally just threw the ball up and Megatron would catch it. There was so many games where Megatron was triple covered and he still caught the TD. Cutler was throwing to smurfs in Chicago, and none of his WR's compare to anything that Stafford was throwing to.
When you have Calvin Johnson literally being triple covered that opens up so much for the other WRs, which helped Stafford throw to open WRs.
Stafford has played 1 game without Calvin Johnson, and he went 14-33 for 168 yards and 0 TDs with 1 pick. He also played a game where Calvin got injured and only had 2 catches and Stafford threw 5 interceptions that game and only 200 yards. Stafford is a good QB, but if Cutler could throw jump balls all game he would have the same stats.
Plus Stafford's injuries are way worse than Cutler, Cutler has missed 7 games in 6 seasons, Stafford has missed 19 in 3 seasons. So to say "Both have had some injury issues" is kind of an understatement when talking about Glassford.
Plus did you see Stafford at the ESPY awards? If not I will let Hunter Hillenmeyer's tweet describe what he looked like.
Hunter Hillenmeyer @hthill Lions are doomed. Matthew Stafford ate Calvin Johnson!
