Now look, I am seeing this all over the god damn internet right now and I get it, we’re 50 days away from NFL regular season kickoff which means we’re too far away to get balls deep into fantasy yet close enough to start itching for the the American pigskin sport we all love. So when shit like the Madden ratings come out, we have to jump all over them, and for those of you who haven’t seen or heard about this, a lot of people are salty over the QB ratings. Check it out.

Especially us Lions fans because our fearless leader comes in at an extremely lukewarm to mildly cool 79. Woof. Now, do I think it’s complete bullshit? Yes. Do I enjoy seeing that? No. But is it something to get our panties in a bunch about? No. And that’s because it’s not real. It’s a fucking video game with ratings made by a bunch of nerds (I’m assuming) who don’t know their asses from a hole in the wall when it comes to evaluating football talent. They just look at last year’s stats pair it with the teams record and run from there. Staff had a shit year and a broken back. It doesn’t mean anything. Goff is a complete game manager and the product of a great system but is higher than Staffy even though Matthew has way more talent. Derrick Carr looks like he drinks Mountain Dew Code Red for breakfast, smokes Newports, and wears flat brim Fox hats. He’s a poor man’s Paul Wall. Yet he somehow got a higher rating than Staff-Daddy probably because someone in Cali who helped develop the game has a hard on for Dirtball Derrick. Fuck’em. I’m here to say this shit doesn’t matter and Stafford doesn’t even know this is a thing. You know why? Because he’s a man with a wife and three kids, with a god damn division to win and he’s not concerned with childish video games. This is merely fuel to the Comeback Player of the Year flame. Keep fanning the fire idiots. Stafford’s coming for blood in 2019.

Also, anyone happen to see where he’s ranked on that list. 19th. Last time I checked Detroit has had some pretty good god damn luck with that number. And last time before last time I checked, it was the year 2019. Detroit sports are coming back with a vengeance this fall and everything is led by the number 19. If the Leo’s don’t lose a game this season en route to a Super Bowl guess what their record will be? 19-0. Open your eyes morons all the answers are right in front of us.

I told myself I wouldn’t go full slap this year before the season started but here I am screaming about a 19-0 season just under two months out and I don’t even care. Stafford is my fucking boy and he’s gearing up for a career year. He rocks and nothing in his past or the Lion’s past matters because there is only one direction we know how to move- FORWARD. #forward 🍾
