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.

Rams WR Puka Nacua racked up 117 yards on 9 receptions in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles. He has topped 50% playing time in just four games this season. Each of those contests has seen him catch at least seven passes and tally 98+ yards.

Rams WR Demarcus Robinson caught two TDs against the Seahawks including the game-winning catch in Overtime. He caught six of nine targets for 94 yards and both receiving scores for the Rams.

Rams WR Puka Nacua was ejected near the end of the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks after throwing a punch. He finishes with one catch on four targets for 11 yards. Tough break for Nacua owners, but we don't expect any further discipline to come from this. Nacua should be back for next Monday night's game vs. the Dolphins.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He aggravated his knee injury on Thursday and did not practice on Friday. But Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer said this afternoon that Nacua will be a “full go” today. Get him in fantasy lineups.
