Unlike the NBA, in the NFL you can't have 1 dominate guy and everything else falls into place, it's a true team sport. That's what's frustrating to me is when people say a QB should be able to lead his to the SB. That's not going to happen unless all phases of the team are solid.
It's no secret that the Lions are one of the worst franchises in sports. Let's see what happens in LA. I'm excited to see him on a solid squad. If he doesn't get in done there i'll shut up LOL.

They've been there 3 times.
It's true that basketball isn't football. It's also true that there isn't a single position on the field more important than QB.
And no one's saying Super Bowl. There's nothing great about not winning a SINGLE playoff game in 12 years.
There's no doubt that the Lions are, and have been, a mess. There's also no doubt that Stafford is physically talented. He's big, strong, can make the throws. #1 pick, 4000 yards, 5000 yards.. these things don't happen by accident. It's if he can turn that into something that's beyond the back of his football card. So far, he hasn't.
