Stafford probably out for the year

[Dpantherman]

And that's reportedly the case with Stafford, according to Tom Kowalski of MLive.com.

Kowalski reports that Stafford is expected to confer with Dr. James Andrews, who treated Stafford when he suffered a Grade 2 separation in Week One of the 2010 season. If it's indeed a Grade 3 separation, Stafford likely will require surgery, and he almost definitely will be done for the year.

As Kowalski points out, Stafford never has missed a game due to injury in high school or college. He now has had four significant injuries in less than two pro seasons -- a dislocated right kneecap, a separated left shoulder, and two separations of his right shoulder.

either the guy has the worst luck in the league, or he is too brittle to play NFL football.

i picked him up a couple weeks ago just to replace rivers this week. he was going against the bills, and it would have been perfect. fml

Wow, I liked Stafford and hoped he would help turn the Lions around, but this has got to be a concern going forward. I wonder if he can come back 100%? Right now, he's Mr. Glass.

[Murph]

Horrible OL players for the past several years will do that. Detroit has to address OL this offseason.

who is going to start for the lions now?

[CLTPanther]

Isn't that the 3rd time he has injured that same shoulder?

[Mr. Scot]

This generation's Chris Chandler.

[Dpantherman]

The guy looks really good when healthy, but my goodness. He doesn't look like hes going to last long.

[Nicbsbll2]

That's just like the Lions luck. Find a good QB only to find out he's only going to play 6 games a year for you...

This generation's Chris Chandler.

I was thinking the same thing.

[rayzor]

dangit. got him in a 16 team league. not much of any choices there.

crap. gonna have to roll with kitna.

[Squirrel]

Well he didnt look like he was in shape when he started in the league. Think that is the main problem. Just shows how drafting a Qb high is a real risk.
