Matthew Stafford at 40,000: 40 memorable moments (Part One)

Through the first half of the 2019 season, Matthew Stafford is not only off to one of the most impressive starts to his 11-year career, but is adding records and milestones to his credit on an almost weekly basis.

One of the few bright spots in the Minnesota loss was Stafford reaching 40,000 career passing yards, becoming the fastest passer in league history to reach 40K. In just over a week, he passed Johnny Unitas and Joe Montana on the all-time passing list. Sure, the NFL was a much different game in their respective eras, no argument from me there.
