Scouting report

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Green Bay Packers
What a comeback Matthew Stafford led at Chicago last week, even with WR Kenny Golladay still out. In the win he threw for a season-most 402 yards with three TDs – the fourth time in ’20 he tossed for three scores. There’s an outside chance Golladay can return on Sunday versus the No. 11 pass defense, otherwise, Marvin Jones and T.J. Hockenson will remain Stafford's top options. In the Week 2 loss at Green Bay, he threw for 244 yards and two scores.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Chicago Bears
Again, without most of his top weapons, Matthew Stafford struggled in the Thanksgiving Day loss to Houston. While he finished with 295 yards and a late TD toss on a season-tying 42 attempts, he has only the lone score the past two contests. There’s a chance Kenny Golladay, Danny Amendola and D’Andre Swift will all be back for the rematch with Chicago. In the Week 1 loss to the Bears Stafford threw for nearly 300 yards with one TD.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Houston Texans
Without WRs Kenny Golladay and Danny Amendola and RB D’Andre Swift, Matthew Stafford (playing with a hurt thumb) and the Lions offense struggled at Carolina last Sunday, being shutout for the first time since ’09. In the loss Stafford was sacked five times and threw for a season-low 178 yards, obviously ending his streak of tossing at least one TD in every game in ’20. With the short week, Stafford is hopeful to have at least a couple of his key weapons back versus Houston's No. 22 pass defense, but with the inconsistent Detroit offense he is a QB2 option.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Carolina Panthers
In the last-second win over Washington last week, Matthew Stafford threw for 275 and three TDs, marking the third time this season he’s tossed for three scores. Stafford has only two 300-yard outings in ’20 but may be getting his top WR Kenny Golladay back for Sunday’s affair with the Panthers, assuming he can play through a partially-torn thumb ligament himself. Even if Golladay is unable to return from a hip injury Carolina is No. 22 against the pass, so consider Stafford a low-end QB1.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Washington
In Minnesota last week, Matthew Stafford left in the second half with a head injury but should be good to play on Sunday. Prior to his departure, he threw for 211 yards with one TD and two INTs. In three of the past four outings, Stafford has tossed for just one score and likely will be without his top WR Kenny Golladay again on Sunday. Washington owns the best pass defense in the league, so Stafford is a low-end QB1 start.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Minnesota Vikings
Facing a tough Indy defense last week, Matthew Stafford threw for 336 yards and three TDs, as he tried to lead his team back from down multiple scores. It was his second straight game over 300 yards and the second time he’s thrown for three scores this season. Stafford was without Kenny Golladay for much of the second half due to an injured hip and won't have him as an option on Sunday. The Vikings allow nearly 290 passing yards per game, so even without his top target Stafford is a low-end QB1 play - assuming he tests negative for COVID.

DET QB Matthew Stafford - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Indianapolis Colts
In the last second win against the Falcons last week, Matthew Stafford posted season highs of 25 completions and 340 yards with his only score being the game-winner to T.J. Hockenson. It was the third time in six outings in ’20 Stafford registered just one TD, including two games in a row. While the Lions will be at home on Sunday, they’ll be facing the No. 2 overall Colts defense so consider Stafford a low QB1 play.
