STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Stafford's worst game came against Morris's defensive scheme; expect similar pressure.

Against Raheem Morris's defensive scheme (similar to the Falcons' Week 17 approach), Stafford faced his third-lowest EPA per dropback, worst QB rating by 18 percentage points, and lowest completion percentage of the season; three interceptions came from clean pockets despite only three sacks and a 26.8% pressure rate. Morris's 5-man fronts with base personnel create congested reads and limit running lanes, forcing Stafford into checkdown situations or deep double coverage attempts.
