Rumors are starting to fly regarding Matthew Stafford.  He is going to be out this week, and rumors are flying that he might be out for a few weeks to rest the knee, possibly the entire season if surgery is required.  Apparently the knee became swullen again this weekend.....

This article alludes to the fact that Culpepper will get the start if Stafford does not go. ...  I don;t think anyone was sure of Culpeppers health and Stanton's status.  My guess is only those in deep keep leagues even care about the Lions QB situation.    ;)
