Lions training camp preview QB

With July 23 on its way here is a preview of the 2012 Detroit Lions

QB

Matthew Stafford

Stafford with a Patriotic Kelly Hall

4th year 29 starts

Stafford had one of the most underrated years in memory throwing for 5,038 yard and 41 touchdowns. He led the Lions to their first playoff game since 1999. With a clean pocket Stafford is awesome. He needs to improve on his play under pressure. He ranked 28th in the NFL out of 32 according to Pro Football Focus under pressure. Jaws rated him # 14 in the league at his position.

Shaun Hill

11th year 10 starts

Hill is an ideal back up. He needs little rest and help mentor the young QB. Hopefully he will stay on the sidelines again this year.
