From the episode

I do think though, the Stafford, how he looked specifically is the part of it that I'm most curious about. A lot of the other stuff I can kind of like talk myself into it, just being a weird game and all this stuff. But like, if he just doesn't, there's no way to know what's just weird and what's real. ... if it still looks like this in October, that that's going to be a problem.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Stafford's Week 1 struggles are concerning, but may be due to early-season rust

The source expresses curiosity about Matthew Stafford's performance following a poor Week 1 showing, noting that while it could be a 'weird game' due to travel and training camp limitations, it will be a problem if he doesn't look right by October.
