Matt Fattford is 0-18 against winning teams on the road

[oxrageous]

Just saw that stat. Ouch. Knew it was bad, didn't know it was that bad. And his OC is wondering why there aren't more puff pieces written about his garbage quarterback.

Not sure he ever fully recovered from that Terron Sanders stiff-arm spin move in '08.

…. must have a bad throwing motion.

I honestly never understood why all the "experts" were so high on him. Inconsistent as hell, threw a ton of interceptions, no heart....I just dont get it.

They should have known he was a bum as soon as they found out he was a spooner.

The guy has great physical talents - he's durable with a cannon arm. But Gatormac was absolutely right above - the guy has no heart at all. He can throw 5,000 yards for you every year, and will never get you anywhere when it matters.

Andy Dalton is a poor man's Fattford. Not as talented, and just as much of a heartless choke.

Keep in mind they got him at a flea market price. His contract pays him a measly 76 million over 5 years, with 41 guaranteed.

Detroit has done a more than admirable job of surrounding him with weapons. The only thing he's produced is the meat sweats.

Just throw the ball to Calvin. How hard can that be?

I believed this was mentioned in January quite a few times, by multiple people. Fatford doesn't have the mind or heart for the game.
