My DIL is a UGA gal. Follows his wife on Instagram. She LOVES them, and I trust her judgment more than any out of context clip shown here. WTF happened? I hope everyone is OK. He’s the winning QB, not the emergency rescue supervisor. 

I don’t know man, to me that looks like a potentially deadly fall. Good luck to his wife, looks like she married a psychopath. I’m holding out hope that this is just some kind of editing mind trick. I guess you can take the QB out of Motor City, but you can’t take the Motor City out of the QB.

The woman, Kelly Smiley, tweeted Wednesday night that she suffered a fractured spine and her cameras broke. She didn't say whether the Staffords eventually offered assistance.

Stafford saw her fall and told Kelly to take care of it

 

A  injury that serious you let paramedics take care of her.

i read it as stafford trying to be faithful to his wife.  if he hunched over the fallen photographer to check on her, he's such a cooz-hound that he'd be tempted to cop a feel or perhaps even perform insertion.  (don't shoot the messenger!  stafford is the bastard, not me.)

Are we even positive Matthew Stafford didn't kick her off the stage?

She was wearing blue. He may have had a Lions flashback and cast her into the pit of dispear.

Yeah that was on odd reaction. He was just like "ooh that's gonna leave a mark.". Even weirder is how nonchalantly he sips his water as he walks away. 

 

 

 

 

Yes I agree. The indifference and lack of concern is stunning. I'm not saying he should  have jumped down there and performed first aid but to turn his back and walk away? Is that even a normal human response?

See my remarks above. Stafford acted as if he  couldn't care less. Say what you will about Jalen Hurts as a QB but what a wonderful contrast to Stafford when that railing collapsed.

 

Incidents like these reveal the type of character an individual possesses... it's both a litmus test and a glimpse into a person's humanity.

Someone falls off a stage right in front of you after taking your picture, you should probably show a little concern. Not just dip out. Not expecting you to do a backflip off stage to check on her, but just walking away acting like it didn’t just happen or at least trying to get help is crazy to me.

The way you phrase seems so nice. 
 

But there’s a huge difference between noping the hell out of there entirely, and showing concern while you let professionals do their job. 
 

He turned around like he opened a portapotty on a couple of teenagers having sex, not like a woman who broke her spine.

The fuh is he supposed to do here?

 

What about liability, if he jumps down and does something and makes it worse for her?

 

Rule one of an injury/fall like that is do NOT move the person until a professional can attend to the situation.

for full disclosure, i'm the person that can't help but to laugh when someone falls in public.  it just comes out.  that being said, that really was a strange reaction.  i don't think bad of him because if it, but it looks like he says, "oh my god", then just peaces out.  i wouldn't expect him to jump down and stabalize the woman, but man that was strange.

Have a little concerned look on his face, maybe? Just a shred of common human decency? A smidgeon of care for another person ?

His wife is a nurse so I’m glad she was there. He was too hammered to really know what was going on imo

After viewing the clip and reading the thread THIS is the only response that makes any sense to me. HAMMERED. How else would even a semi aware decent human being watch a fall like that and with Zero concern just turn and walk away? He not jumping in to assist isn't what "jumped out" at me..it was the lack of even curiosity, concern for a person......even an OH MY GOSH Holy crap response....zilcho...

I stumbled upon Kelly Stafford’s podcast today. I didn’t know she had one (never cared but I’m low on podcast content) ..apparently she does one every morning after a game (it’s called the “Morning After” podcast) . I randomly  clicked on the episode after the Rams playoff victory over TB. I knew she was chad hall’s sister but she talked a lot about the Bills and Josh Allen and how she and a bunch of the other rams wives/GFs went to this huge Bills bar in Tampa (the Patio?) after that game to watch the chiefs game. She said she had everyone cheering for the Bills. Apparently knows Josh‘s girlfriend too and went on and on about how great they are. Anyway, random but cool.

My 1st reaction would of been to jump down and check on her then try to get the proper help to her immediately. I don't think I would of hesitated a bit.

I have to say Stafford's reaction was a richard move...  Not a good look Matt

Clearly he is not a paramedic but apparently not very caring either.  The facial expression, the sip of water, and the turn about face and leave -  all indicate he didn’t want to be bothered.   He left it to his wife.  Not a good look IMO.

Agreed.  Stafford gets the DC Tom award of the day.

If it was Josh, in an instant he would have flown off the stage, caught her before she hit the ground, gently placed her on the ground, reassuringly said "I got you ma'am", gave a wink, then flown off

"get a fall guy".  His just happened to be a lady.

 

 

 

I love how several here are saying "well we don't know the context", as though maybe Stafford exited to the stage stairs and went to check on her (instead of just saying oh wow, and strolling off).

Did he not check on her?
