And the picture dictionary better illustrates the definition of ‘diffident’ with a sequence of Stafford photos showing some of his drives, hesitations, constant moments lack of self-confidence and bad throws:

busted face v. Kentucky three years ago; 1 and done v. Bama two years ago; UF two years ago; Auburn two years ago; Hawaii two years ago; LSU this year; Kentucky this year; Tech this year; Michigan State this year.

We could have won three the Divisional, SEC and BCS championships if only our QB hadn’t been so hesitant in acting and speaking, including all of those audibles he mumbled, if he had manned up and shown some self-confidence so his receivers wouldn’t drop his passes, his pass blocking and run blocking techniques were better, his defense could tackle and wouldn’t get a personal foul every other play. And most of all, if he is so good, where was his special teams play? How come he couldn’t kick it into the end zone and why did he kick it out of bounds all the time? Each and every one of his teammates was not hesitant and all were brimming with self-confidence and played smart all the time, not just some of the time.

Also why couldn’t this Stafford guy look over the sidelines to get signals from coaches before each and every play like all the other non-diffident, or is it indiffident, QB’s did? What a loser. We could have done so much better without him. So what if he’s the number one pick. How come they don’t know what we know?

Because they can’t come up with any legitimate reasons. So they grasp at the one nobody can prove either way. The only way you could ever possibly know if Stafford was a leader is if you were in the locker room and huddle with him. Since nobody who makes this idiotic assessment was, they’re just grasping at straws.
