At the NFL Rookie Symposium in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., Lions rookie QB Matthew Stafford told CBSSports.com in an exclusive interview that his new team's offense is familiar to him, and that's helped him get acclimated to his new playbook. "Coming from Georgia, we do a lot of the same concepts with [offensive coordinator Scott] Linehan that we did there," Stafford said. "It's obviously called something completely different and you may look for a different look for certain coverages, but a lot of the concepts are similar, so it's been a pretty easy transition for me so far."

Hopefully, next Lions season will be beter than previous, because play worse than in 2008. is impossible...
Well I imagine playing against that fearsome Detroit defense has probably helped ease the transition - we'll see how he does when it comes to clam bake...
