Winning in the NFL as a starting quarterback is not simply showing up for work and collecting the big paychecks. Just ask Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. To fans, he is having one of the best statistical seasons of his 17-year professional football career. But from his point of view, this has been one of the craziest seasons of his zany life as an NFL quarterback
The key to Stafford's success is not trying to sustain a level of excellence with each snap of the football. Rather, he understands how quickly momentum in the game can change and seizes every opportunity from those pivotal moments.
