Matthew Stafford is PFF's lowest graded quarterback

Published Sep. 29, 2015 10:06 a.m. ET

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is having a rough season. His team is 0-3, and he can't seem to get anything going on offense.

Stafford is the lowest graded quarterback at Pro Football Focus through three games (-5.8). He has thrown the ball a lot (128 pass attempts), but there hasn't been a correlation in yardage (6.4 yards per attempt). Stafford has the same amount of touchdowns as interceptions (5).

The offensive line has not protected Stafford well this season (six sacks), and his overall passer rating has suffered as a result (78.7). With no running game to help take some pressure off Stafford, all the 27-year-old quarterback can do is keep chucking the ball to Calvin Johnson and hope for the best.
