Matthew Stafford Comments on Possibly Taking on the Lions in the Playoffs
It’s not a matchup that I’d want to see, but it’s a definite possibility. Matthew Stafford could be coming back to Ford Field to try to knock the Detroit Lions out of the race for the Super Bowl. The Lions have a few possible opening round opponents, and the Los Angeles Rams are one of them. So, what is Stafford saying about possibly taking on the Lions in the playoffs?
First of all, let’s note that the Lions vs. the Rams in a playoff game would make for an incredible storyline. I personally feel that having Stafford back at Ford Field to try to wipe out the Lions’ hopes and dreams would be like seeing an ex back in town with their new partner. It’s not that I think the Lions would fall to the Rams. I actually think the Lions would have a better chance of beating the Rams than the Seahawks. Stafford isn’t a mobile quarterback, and I believe the Lions’ defense can handle him. But, I just don’t want the drama and heartache. Although it would be nice to see Jared Goff beat the team that didn’t appreciate his talents.
Following the Rams’ win during Thursday Night Football, Ryan Fitzpatrick asked Stafford about a possible playoff game against his former team. Stafford answered very wisely.
Matthew Stafford on Possibly Taking on the Lions in the Playoffs
“No, no. Like I said, there’s a lot of ball to be played between now and then,” he said via Amazon Prime. “We’re just trying to get in the dance, that’s the main goal. Get in, be the best seed you can be, figure out where we got to go play after that. But there’s a lot of football to be played between now and then, and we have two tough opponents.” Listen to the latest episode of “The Squad with Anne Erickson” below. Send me your thoughts here.
Drawing Every Team's Logo In The NFL By Memory (VIDEO)
Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals logo
Well, I didn’t start off great that’s for sure. I feel like this looks more like an Angry Bird than the Cardinals logo. At least it’s the right animal?
Atlanta Falcons
Atlanta Falcons logo
I don’t think this one is terrible! I got the overall shape down correctly. That signature little V shape is important and it’s there. I feel like any NFL fan should know that this is the Falcons logo.
Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore Ravens logo
Yeah…not great. Looks more like a Dodo bird, or something. It definitely doesn’t look as intimidating as their real logo. I own that. The “B” should be a giveaway, though.
Buffalo Bills
Buffalo Bills logo
I’m not going to lie…I think I nailed this one. It’s clearly a Buffalo. Right? That random line is coming out of it for some reason, just like the real logo! Nailed it.
Carolina Panthers
Carolina Panthers logo
Look…what else do you want? Clearly that’s a Panther. I suppose it could be a Jaguar, but NFL fans should be able to recognize that profile. I hope…
Chicago Bears
My drawing of the Chicago Bears logo
If you watched the video above…it looks like I got this one wrong myself during the game. I said it was the Panthers…which it could easily be! However, it’s not. It’s the Chicago Bears. I told you I can’t draw!!
Cincinnati Bengals
My drawing of the Cincinnati Bengals logo
Finally, an easy one. Clearly, this is the logo of the Cincinnati Bengals. It’s a dead giveaway. Even with me drawing it. Now, that’s saying something.
Cleveland Browns
My drawing of the Cleveland Browns logo
People I talked to had a hard time with this one. Kind of surprised me because it’s the most basic boring logo in the entire NFL. It’s a helmet! That’s it. Looking at it, I think you can see a helmet. Or maybe a hat. Regardless, it’s headwear and no other NFL team has that in their logo. Has to be the Browns!
Dallas Cowboys
My drawing of the Dallas Cowboys logo
You know…looking at this it really hits me that I cannot draw. The other logos are tough, and I feel like it should be understandable that I can’t draw them. However, this is simply a star and I still couldn’t pull it off. Pretty pathetic.
Denver Broncos
My drawing of the Denver Broncos logo
I know what you’re thinking. “Did he trace that?” Nope. It’s all me drawing from memory. Not too shabby, eh?
Detroit Lions
My drawing of the Detroit Lions logo
This is a bummer. Somehow, my home town team ended up being the worst drawing of them all. How does that happen? It’s the one I’m most familiar with! Looks like a dog with a perm.
Green Bay Packers
My drawing of the Green Bay Packers logo
Simplicity at its finest. Surely you know this is the logo for the Green Bay Packers. It was nice to have an easy one thrown in. Although, I admit it’s still not great especially for how basic it is.
Houston Texans
My drawing of the Houston Texans logo
Hey, I don’t think this one turned out terrible. In fact, it’s pretty good! No other team has a logo that looks anything like this. Should be an easy one to get. You’re welcome!
Indianapolis Colts
My drawing of the Indianapolis Colts logo
Maybe I can draw! That’s a pretty well drawn horseshoe. I can surprise myself sometimes. Keep going for some more awful drawings.
Jacksonville Jaguars
My drawing of the Jacksonville Jaguars logo
That could be one of my better drawings. Look, it’s not my fault that the Jaguars and the Panthers have similar logos. I’m just doing my best over here. Never mind me. You see it, right? A noticeable difference between this and the Panthers.
Kansas City Chiefs
My drawing of the Kansas City Chiefs logo
Yeah, this is kind of cheating but…it’s the logo! I didn’t choose for it to have “KC” in it. It just worked out that way. Luckily for me…there are a couple more coming where this happened too.
Las Vegas Raiders
My drawing of the Las Vegas Raiders logo
As I look at this, I’m starting to doubt that the Raiders real logo is smiling. I guess I just felt like it was an artistic choice. Definitely not as intimidating as the real thing. I own that mistake. However, it might be cuter? If that means anything…
Los Angeles Chargers
My drawing of the Los Angeles Chargers logo
Ugh. I can’t even draw a lightning bolt?! That’s a major let down. I don’t know where the edges are supposed to go! It looks like a bolt to me. It shouldn’t be hard to tell that this is the LA Chargers, even if it is a bad drawing.
Los Angeles Rams
My drawing of the Los Angeles Rams logo
Nope, I didn’t make this one on a computer. That’s drawn by hand. Pretty close to the real thing, I’d say.
Miami Dolphins
My drawing of the Miami Dolphins logo
Again, not the best drawing ever but I think it comes close. What else do you want out of me? I got the basic dolphin shape and that sun outline. That’s pretty much all there is to it.
Minnesota Vikings
My drawing of the Minnesota Vikings logo
I’m not going to lie…I thought this could be one of my best. Then I realized that “my best” probably isn’t saying much. I get it. Someone said it looked like a chicken with a helmet and now that’s all I can see.
New England Patriots
My drawing of the New England Patriots logo
Eh. Not terrible! I think I have a problem making these mascots and logos smile instead of looking serious. I’ll work on that the next time around. I don’t think this is awful, though.
New Orleans Saints
My drawing of the New Orleans Saints logo
Even though it’s a horrible drawing, it’s still obvious what team this is. I will say that it’s a pretty difficult shape to draw from memory. Mine may be a little chubby or inflated instead of edgy, but it works. Get off my back, man!
New York Giants
My drawing of the New York Giants logo
I think my effort here was pretty low but what do you expect? It’s two letters. That’s the entire logo. I didn’t design it, I just drew it. Don’t blame me.
New York Jets
My drawing of the New York Jets logo
If you thought the last one was lazy, this one may top it. Logos with the name of the team in it is like cheating, I admit. However, I needed the break.
Philadelphia Eagles
My drawing of the Philadelphia Eagles logo
Woah! Not bad! Finally, I was able to make the mascot look a little more mean and intimidating. Thank goodness I came close to getting the Eagles correctly because I know how Philly sports fans can be. I do not want any of that smoke.
Pittsburgh Steelers
My drawing of the Pittsburgh Steelers logo
You should be able to guess which logo this is. I suppose the team name being in the logo helps. Maybe I shouldn’t have included that part?
San Francisco 49ers
My drawing of the San Francisco 49ers logo
Simplicity is key. Notice the attention to detail with the letters overlapping. I did this myself. Might have to hang this one on the fridge.
Seattle Seahawks
My drawing of the Seattle Seahawks logo
This…didn’t come out the way I wanted it to. It turned out…wrong and sort of…Gonzo like? Sorry, Seattle.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
My drawing of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers logo
I feel like I’m missing something here. I remembered the skull and cross bones, though. The flag should let you know it’s Bucs not the Raiders.
Tennessee Titans
My drawing of the Tennessee Titans logo
I am really bad at drawing stars. They seem so simple yet I can’t get it. Stars aside, this isn’t my worst drawing.
Washington Commanders
My drawing of the Washington Commanders logo
Yeah, I was ready for this to be over by the time I got to Washington. I know it’s just a W with some weird lines. Close enough, in my opinion.
