- Today in Matthew Stafford takes: SB Nation’s Louis Bien believes Stafford is one of the most confounding quarterbacks of our time, while Steven Ruiz of USA Today’s “For the Win” rallies against any sort of Stafford-for-MVP talk.
- Regardless of what the national media says about Stafford, his new teammate Justin Forsett is very impressed with him:
Justin Forsett told me the only QB he's ever played with that is in charge of so many different thing in game as Stafford. Peyton Manning.
