The basketball players are getting $200 million. Giancarlo Stanton is getting $325 million. The money is ridiculous these days

At face value, sure. But it's solely indicative of the current market, cap room, and timing of the signing. Every top 15 qb that renegotiates his deal is going to be one of the highest paid players until the next top qb signs his new deal. That's going to be the way it is as long as there's a scarcity of quality starting qb's.

Considering he's a damn good QB and the only thing on that team worth a damn, there's nothing silly about it. The only reason Detroit has become halfway respectable, the only reason they've done anything is because of Stafford. He has put up prolific numbers behind awful offensive lines and no running game to speak of, with middling defenses to boot. That team last year had no business being in the playoffs. He was the reason they were there. They win maybe one game without him last year.
