My favorite 1-Yard “stat pad TD” from Matthew Statford as an LA Ram.

Such a dumb argument. If your Coach trusts you to make a TD throw more than your RB to get a yard that’s a pretty good sign of being a reliable and accurate passer
Is there an actual QB here who can comment on why redzone passing might actually be harder? Because I believe it is…
Idk about you, but if you suck at running in short-yardage situations, you should probably pass it.
Maye has a fantastic case for MVP and he might win it but it’s weird that Stafford gets discredited for this lol
Immortal. Rings for the Rams, a Lombardi trophy for Los Angeles.
These mfers validate the tush push but not a passing TD. What a weird world.
Yeah that’s so dumb… they prefer Stafford instead get behind his OL and walk it in 1-2 times a game like Hurts?
It’s just as hard to execute an expected pass to your star WR
It’s bc we can’t reliably run the ball in those spots but they don’t understand that bc they can
A+ post 💙💛🐏
Only dumbasses call this a stat pad like it is easy. Missing this lost the Chickens a Super Bowl.

lol, this “padding the stats” thing is straight up bullshit. That’s literally what the stat is! TD passes! Haters gonna hate, and ain’ters gonna ain’t.
The argument is crazy lmao
If short passing touchdowns were easy then legit everybody would just do it
People acting like it’s free points or some shit are coping hard
If you remove all of Staffords touchdowns within 5 yards and remove all of Mayes touchdowns within 5 yards, Stafford still has 7 or 8 more TDs than Maye. stupid argument
I’m old enough to remember when these same arguments were made against Peyon Manning. Goalline passing is not easy.
Complaining about the red zone TD passes while ignoring all the other plays it took to get there is hilarious.
