  • make the argument that Matthew Stafford has been as good, if not better, than any quarterback in Lyons history.

  • But in off season, where we're going to see unprecedented quarterback movement, you could include the name Matthew Stafford him and the Detroit Lions are finished moving forward.

  • Sam.

  • Yeah, it's big news, Adam.

  • And it was interesting hearing Dan Campbell interviewed.

  • People kept asking him about Matthew Stafford, and he wouldn't really say anything good or bad.

  • Noncommittal.

  • It's clear that they both sides, it seems, are ready to move on.

  • It's weird when you think about because we're so used to see and Stafford as a line.

  • He's only 32.

  • With what we're seeing with Aaron, Rodgers and Brady and Brees.

  • He's got a while to play.

  • If he stays healthy, Rex, where do you think I'll end up?

  • Well, I actually don't believe this, but I'm gonna say, Let's just hype.

  • Let Ray say a Cowboys blow it with that Prescott.

  • This would be an amazing spot for why look, you go back to his high school days, he returns home.

  • He won a state championship at Highland Park right there in Texas, so I think it would be.

  • I think it would be a phenomenal spot.

  • He'd be reunited with Kellen Moore, a former teammate, and look, if he goes there, they would be the favorites to win the NFC East.

  • I promise you they would be.

  • I don't think they would.

  • Even with Stafford, I mean, I just I just don't think there's enough support for Stafford.

  • You got offensive talent.

  • Yes, I've been a fan of Matthew Stafford.

  • The guys tough he plays when heard all of that stuff.

  • I mean, he's e mean, he's a star, all right.

  • It's just not He's not a winner.

  • He is not a winner.

  • He hasn't won a playoff game.

  • I'd like to see him play him in a place where there's more structural support.

  • There's more just continuity there, someone that's gonna put some entire team around him that's gonna help him win.

  • I'd like to see that, but everything in Detroit was a failure.

  • I mean, you've got a lot of numbers.

  • You got a lot of moments where you played hurt.

  • You're taking shots, you're throwing touchdown passes doing all those fancy things.

  • It just didn't consistently get put together to win football games.

  • So someone's gotta help this kid because the Detroit organization obviously didn't know.

  • Where do you think now where do you think we both agree?

  • There's no way back in Dallas.

  • What do you say?

  • What do you say?

  • I would say I would say the New England Patriots would be an option.

  • I would say maybe a sneaky outside case of maybe like the New Orleans Saints.

  • Well, if you're getting three shots at no time did this what it's going to be about?

  • This is what it's gonna be about.

  • This is what it's not gonna be about, Okay?

  • It's gonna be about a team that's not in a rebuild.

  • It's gonna be about a contender, and it's not gonna be about money like usually.

  • You see, veteran veteran players go to New England for way less money than they should have been getting on the open market.

  • But they're like they have this mindset of like, you know what?

  • I've made a bunch of money.

  • I've played for teams that are irrelevant in January and February.

  • I'll give all of that stuff up just to play in a winning organization, a culture just to be coached hard I don't want.

  • I don't want to coach to come in and being like, Hey, we've got to stop turning the ball over.

  • I wanna coach that comes in and says the quarterback needs to stop turning the ball over like that's refreshing to some people in his situation.

  • Uh, I just think that, though, with Matt Patricia, because back there, that was now is that gonna be good?

  • It was.

  • But if he was, Stafford was still careless with the football.

  • I mean, in terms of just goes back to getting coached hard.

  • I just think, like, Is he willing to be coached hard because of the New England Patriots?

  • Just hired was Matt Patricia.

  • He's back on the staff.

  • So if anyone has intimate knowledge of Matthew Stafford and how Patricia felt about Stafford building building so happy kicks you to the curb.

  • Because really, that's what happened.

  • Okay, the Detroit Lions interviewed all these head coaches and said, Hey, do you want this job?

  • Matthew Stafford is not gonna be here.

  • Do you want this job still like that?

  • Changes you a little bit as a person and maybe changes how you drive and look what's important to you.

  • I think New England would be a good fit for him.

  • I really do.

  • You know, before we get the randy on on this thing, I just got to say this.

  • You guys are missing it.

  • Nobody wanted to go to New England, to be coached by Bill Belichick.

  • They wanted to play with Tom Brady.

  • I mean, part of its Belichick, But to play with Tom Brady.

  • Why, that's why you're gonna win.

  • And no quarterback was wanting to go to New England.

  • I can assure you that.

  • So to me.

  • Go ahead, Randi, Tell him where he's gonna go.

  • You know, when I look at this situation, you gotta look at Matthew Stafford being, you know, from the from the state of Texas, going to Georgia, being in a dome his whole career.

  • You just put up to Chicago Bears.

  • You just put up the New England Patriots, them of both outdoor teams.

  • They need a quarterback, but I don't think he's the right fit.

  • I think the Indianapolis Coast would be the right fit for a guy like Matthew Staffer.

  • There are Dome Team, they have the offense, said they have a great offensive line that got receivers, and they have a great running back brewed.

  • You just talked about, um, organization that's used to winning the Indianapolis Coast.

  • That organization there usedto win, and they have a few pieces that they're missing.

  • Philip Rivers just retired.

  • They need a quarterback to lead the rest of the team down the road.

  • If they get a quarterback, you better watch out for the Indianapolis mom.

  • But I think it would be a great pick that one gunman.

  • I I agree with that.

  • The only time you've ever said Dad government in your entire life, that seems to make a lot of sense.

  • You also gotta look at maybe San Francisco.

  • I just don't know if going to the Patriots right now is going to a winner.

  • After what we saw this year, they seem to be in a rebuild bottles Tom Brady.

  • Eventually, you're gonna go in there and look those banners, and I do think that the fact that I have with Campbell's coming from the Saints sometimes those relationships like that's just trades just happened between friends.

  • You see that all the time.

  • You get to go somewhere warm.

  • Thanks for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.
