For most of the season he did very little in terms of positive production, then all of a sudden after some things were allegedly "simplified", he starts making plays? Seems to me if he were really Lou's guy, Lou would have looked into and solved the issue sooner. They'll have to review the game footage and see if Stone was really playing better or just benefitted by happening to be in the right place at right time.
Upgrades are out there, it's just a matter of if the management is willing to drop Stone and spend a little extra for quality.
Stone is one that I'm very leery of. He was basically non-existent the first 12 games of the season. His 4 int's on the year were against bad QB's/offenses - Cleveland x2, Tenn, and Dallas. And he sits very solidly in the land of I'm not buying he just morphed into a quality player the last 5 games. His PFF grade in passer rating allowed is 94.2 and puts him 83rd place.
He's one, like you say, I wouldn't be at all upset if they cut and found an upgrade. Which probably wouldn't be hard to do.
