WEEK IN REVIEW: Stafford set to make 100th career start

Quarterback Matthew Stafford is set to make his 100th career start for the Lions this Sunday, and he's doing it in style.

Stafford's already first among all NFL quarterbacks through their first 100 games in passing yards (27,624) and completions (2,392). He ranks fifth in touchdowns (177), but has a chance to climb up a spot this weekend by jumping Peyton Manning (178).

There's no question Stafford has been on a hot streak lately. He's showing toughness and accuracy, drawing attention not just locally, but nationally as well.

"I'm my own worst critic, so if I wasn't completing a high enough percentage of balls for our coach, I was going to go out there and try to complete more of them," Stafford said Wednesday when asked about his improved accuracy.
