Kelly Stafford Kerry Hyder Jersey , the wife of Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, has announced on social media that she has a brain tumor. She explained that she will undergo surgery soon to have the tumor removed.The tumor is benign, but the surgery carries significant risks. And Kelly Stafford understandably is scared about those risks, especially with three young children who need her.Kelly and Matthew Stafford began dating while they were both students at the University of Georgia, and they married in 2015.“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t completely terrified of them opening my head,” Kelly Stafford wrote on Instagram. “I’m terrified of losing my hearing Zach Zenner Jersey , I’m terrified of losing facial function, I’m terrified of far worse things that could happen and I’m terrified that I won’t take the time I need to recover because the guilt I might feel of being absent from my kids for too long. . . . I am telling y’all this to ask for prayers and support.”We wish Kelly and Matthew the best at this difficult time, and we encourage the full community of NFL fans to give them the prayers and support they need in the coming weeks. When you’re making the list of people to blame for yesterday’s Lions loss, it’s easy to get to quarterback Matthew Stafford and stop.After all, he threw two interceptions in a five-minute span in the fourth quarter, one returned for a touchdown and one in the end zone to kill any final hope they had. It’s far from what they expected when they gave him a five-year Quandre Diggs Jersey , $135 million contract, but he has 13 turnovers this season, and the Lions have lost four of their last five to slump to 4-7.At least running back LeGarrette Blount has his back.“I don’t like to point fingers and I don’t think that it’s his fault,” Blount said, via Dave Birkett of the . “He’s a great quarterback. He’s really good at what he does, he’s really great at his craft. But there’s no quarterback that’s going to go into a full season and not make any mistakes. So I think he’s human. He makes mistakes Theo Riddick Jersey , I make mistakes, we all make mistakes and a lot of mistakes give you an L.”There were plenty to go around, yesterday and over the last month, which made them want to circle the wagons around their quarterback.“I think we need more out of everybody, to be honest with you,” Lions coach Matt Patricia replied when asked if he needed more out of Stafford. “There were a lot of plays in there where all of us have to do more Tavon Wilson Jersey , whether it’s preparation or coaching or playing, whatever it is. There are a lot of plays that we can all point to.”Interceptions are big plays, and they’re easy to point to. And they have Stafford’s name on them. While the absences of Kerryon Johnson and Marvin Jones certainly doesn’t help, they’re still expecting more from the guy who is getting all the money.
