The Chicago Bears saw a divisional rival quarterback, Matthew Stafford, head to the trade block on Saturday evening.
Once upon a time the Detroit Lions took a sure fire franchise quarterback at number one overall in the 2009 NFL Draft. Since then, Stafford and the Lions haven’t accomplished a whole lot.
For most of his tenure, Stafford has not been backed by much of a defense, nor has he had any semblance of a running game. It’s been all on the former Georgia Bulldog’s shoulders, and he’s made the most of it.
