Matthew Stafford saw the internet's jokes and conspiracy theories.
The jokes and rumors that Stafford had been replaced by a clone reached a point that his wife, Kelly, even joked about it leading up to the season.
If it truly is a clone playing because Stafford's back injury was too much to overcome, the Rams couldn't have asked for a much better performance to start the year.
They are 3-1 through four games with the veteran quarterback completing 67.6 percent of his passes for 1,114 yards, eight touchdowns and two interceptions.
He was particularly effective in Sunday's victory over the previously undefeated Indianapolis Colts and went 29-of-41 for 375 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions in the 27-20 win.
