It would have been a shock for Caldwell to bench Stafford. Prior to Sunday, the former first overall pick had taken every snap for the Lions since 2013, save for a pair of kneeldowns. Still, his lack of anticipation and poise against the blitz was at the core of Sunday's loss. Looking lost and apprehensive against Arizona's well-coached defense, Stafford's trio of interceptions buried a Lions offense that has failed to make the most of its talented parts under play-caller Joe Lombardi.
