Matthew Stafford’s string of bad luck at Ford Field continued on Sunday as the Detroit Lions defeated the Los Angeles Rams in overtime.

The Rams were hoping to exact some revenge against the team that ended their season in the playoffs just a few months ago.

In his latest return to the stadium where he spent 12 seasons as the face of the Detroit Lions, Matthew Stafford fell in a heartbreaker but had to deal with much more than just starting the season off with a loss.

Heading into the game, Stafford shared his anticipation for the Lions fanbase.

“(The atmosphere) was good,” Stafford told reporters. “I thought it was a fun place to play. The crowd was into it. Obviously, a great football game helps make the crowd get into it — back and forth all day.”

When asked if he has gotten over being booed by the Lions fanbase and the Goff chants, Matthew Stafford simply replied, “I am, yeah. I’m fine.”

He also added a “yup” to the follow-up question about games in Detroit not being anything special to him.

The 26-20 loss marked Stafford’s sixth straight defeat at Ford Field.

His last victory there came on Nov. 15, 2020.

Stafford and the Rams will try to get their first victory next week when they travel to Arizona for an NFC West battle in Week 2.

Matthew Stafford Plays Solid Game Against Former Team, But It Wasn’t Enough

Matthew Stafford completed 34-of-49 passing attempts for 317 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in Sunday’s 26-20 overtime loss to the Detroit Lions.

He played a pretty solid game, given the fact that he lost star WR Puka Nacua to a knee injury during this contest.

Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce all but confirmed that he’ll never come out of retirement after revealing a remarkable offseason body transformation.

Though he was still at the top of his game last year, Jason Kelce decided to hang up the cleats on his illustrious career that will lead to a spot in the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.

Because Kelce was playing at a high level in his age-36 season, many fans can’t help but wonder if he’d come out of retirement and return to the Eagles — especially if they’re in Super Bowl contention.

But during an interview with the Associated Press, Jason Kelce made it clear that a comeback is not happening. Kelce cited that the Eagles won’t be calling him back after his drastic offseason weight loss:

“They’re not going to call me to come back and play center at 260 pounds, and I’m moving on to the next thing and I’m excited to watch Cam (Jurgens). I really think Cam is going to be tremendous this year. He’s going to really show people how great of a player he is.

He was good for us last year at right guard and he’s going to flourish at center. And for me personally, my days of playing are just done and I do not foresee any scenario taking place other than maybe medicine inventing a way to get rid of arthritis that I would ever entertain coming back at all anymore.”
