We texted a little bit. Just told him that I know going out there I’ve got big shoes to fill,” Stafford said. “It’s not lost on me that he was in the Super Bowl just a few years ago. He’s a really good player in his own right. I just wanted to let him know that I appreciate him as a player and obviously, to reach out to me if there was anything he needed when it comes to Detroit, just as far as advice or places to stay, anything. I know that he feels that he can reach out to me, and I know I can reach out to him with anything in L.A. too. So it’s been good.”Stafford will officially become a Ram, and Goff will officially become a Lion, when the new league year starts on March 17.I am all in on the trade but for me this is just icing on the cake. 2 by AvengerRam 3 years 2 months ago Total posts: 8686 Joined: Oct 03 2017 Lake Mary, Florida Hall of Fame Re: If Nothing Else He's Got Class POST #2 By all accounts, Stafford is a good guy who really embraces his community.

Now, I've got to go back and watch again, but the way I remember it was when he needed to make a play with a big game on the line, he looked very shaky, he fumbled twice on the last drive after Dallas took the lead late in the game. I remember discussing it with my brother while we were watching the game, and we said the same thing, Stafford doesn't have it when he needs it a big game.It would be great if A1 could put the last couple of minutes of the Detroit Dallas playoff game up for everyone to see Stafford with about 2.5 minutes left and down by 4 points. ~ max ~“The consciousness of good intentions disdains ambiguity.” - Alexander Hamilton, The Federalist Papers by AvengerRam 3 years 2 months ago Total posts: 8686 Joined: Oct 03 2017 Lake Mary, Florida Hall of Fame If Nothing Else He's Got Class POST #4 VegasRam liked this post max wrote:Thats all good, but the concern that sticks with me is what I remember watching him in his playoff games.The game I remember is the wild card game against Dallas in 2014 season.

It got to a point, so I would make a lot of the protection calls, but he would know. He would know a call he wants to do and he would switch it—he obviously had last say—but I would make the switch and he would be like, ‘There we go, buddy.

Though Ragnow was responsible for protection calls on offense, sometimes he could sense Stafford was just waiting for Ragnow to call the protection he already wanted.“He’s a savant when it comes to reading defenses,” Ragnow said. “Blows my mind. It got to a point, so I would make a lot of the protection calls, but he would know. He would know a call he wants to do and he would switch it—he obviously had last say—but I would make the switch and he would be like, ‘There we go, buddy. I was waiting on you.’”And off the field, Stafford was just the guy you could have a beer with. There was no entitlement. No smugness or arrogance.“He is a dude. He’s the ultimate dude’s dude.
