Matthew Stafford Lights Up Bills
Matthew Stafford Lights Up Bills
Rams QB Matthew Stafford threw for 320 yards and 2 TDs on 23 of 30 passing in Sunday's win over Buffalo. His passing yardage marked the second-highest by a QB against the Bills this season. He’s also now gone four straight games without an INT.
Matthew Stafford Succumbs to Faulty Blocking
Matthew Stafford Succumbs to Faulty Blocking
Rams QB Matthew Stafford threw for an OK 243 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. But one of those came in garbage time, and he took a season-high-tying 5 sacks. That marks two games of 4+ sacks among the past three.
Matt Stafford Throws 4 TDs in Week 8 Win
Matt Stafford Throws 4 TDs in Week 8 Win
Rams QB Matt Stafford accounted for all 4 of the team's TDs in Thursday night's 30-20 win over the Vikings. He got rolling early with a 5-yard score to RB Kyren Williams on the Rams' first possession of the night. Stafford's most impressive TD came in the second quarter. He spun away from one Vikings defender, ducked under another, and then fired a laser to WR Cooper Kupp in the back of the end zone from 7 yards out. Stafford connected with WR Demarcus Robinson for his third and fourth scores in the second half. He finished 25 of 34 (74%) for 279 yards (8.2 YPA), 4 TDs, and 0 INTs.
Puka Nacua Designated To Return From IR
Puka Nacua Designated To Return From IR
Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) has been designated to return from IR. He'll get back on the practice field on Tuesday but is very unlikely to play vs. the Vikings on Thursday night. Barring a setback, though, Nacua should have a chance to make it back for Week 9's meeting with the Seahawks. With WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) set to return on Thursday, QB Matt Stafford is getting close to having his full arsenal back. He could be a fantasy factor even in 1-QB leagues over the second half of the season.
Breece Hall's off the injury report. Isaac Guerendo, Alvin Kamara and others are hurt. Reacting appropriately to each situation could win you Week 16.
