• Rams' Matthew Stafford: QBs to Start

  11H ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Stafford had an efficient game in Week 7 against Las Vegas with 23-of-29 passing for 195 yards, three touchdowns and one interception for 23.5 Fantasy points. He did that without Davante Adams (hamstring), and Stafford has now scored at least 20.9 Fantasy points in five of his past six games. The Chargers have only allowed one quarterback this season to score 20-plus Fantasy points, which was Kirk Cousins in Week 2, including matchups with Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes. But I trust Stafford to stay productive in this game, and he remains a top-10 Fantasy quarterback in all leagues.

• Rams' Matthew Stafford: Three-TD day in Week 7 win

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Stafford completed 23 of 29 passes for 195 yards with three touchdowns and one interception and rushed three times for minus-3 yards in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders on Sunday. Stafford was operating with a less-than-100-percent Puka Nacua (calf) and without Davante Adams (IR, hamstring), so his reduced passing yardage total wasn't entirely surprising. The reigning MVP still found a way to deliver a highly useful fantasy performance via a trio of first-half scoring strikes to Davis Allen (three, five yards) and Nacua (11 yards). Stafford also extended a streak of games with better than a 74.0 percent completion rate to three, and his 79.3 percent tally Sunday was a season-high figure. Stafford next takes aim at the Chargers defense in a Week 8 home matchup next Sunday.

• Rams' Matthew Stafford: Two more TD passes in Week 6

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Stafford was 25-for-33 passing for 222 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions during Sunday's 18-16 defeat against the Cardinals. Stafford's streak of outings with at least 300 yards passing came to a close at four games, but he offset it with his fourth performance with multiple TD passes through the first six weeks of the season. With the Rams sitting at 2-4 and seeking to right the ship, he does have a get-right game on paper next Sunday in Las Vegas, and all of the key skill-position players at his disposal are healthy, including WRs Puka Nacua and Davante Adams and RB Kyren Williams. As a result, an outburst from Stafford for fantasy purposes is always possible.

• Rams' Matthew Stafford: Massive yardage total in OT loss

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Stafford completed 40 of 54 passes for 383 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Rams' 37-34 overtime loss to the Bills on Monday night. Stafford's stellar final line underscores he did everything within his power to lead the Rams to victory, as the reigning MVP finished with his second-highest passing yardage total of the season and third 300-yard effort of the campaign. The night also marked Stafford's third multi-TD tally over the first five games, with his scoring strikes going to Davante Adams (four and five yards) and Puka Nacua (two yards). Nacua also was on the receiving end of a whopping 17 of Stafford's completions and the intended target on 24 of his pass attempts, but all of those efforts went for naught thanks to the Bills' block of a Harrison Mevis 48-yard field-goal attempt in overtime that would have sealed the victory for Los Angeles. Stafford and the Rams now will look to bounce back in a Week 6 home divisional matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday.

• Rams' Matthew Stafford: Start of the Week

  21D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  It's been a rocky start to the season so far for Stafford, but he should have a dominant game in Week 5 against Buffalo. I like Stafford as a top-three Fantasy quarterback in all leagues. He has two games this year with at least 24.9 Fantasy points and two others with 9.7 Fantasy points or less. Puka Nacua missed two games with a groin injury, but he's healthy now. And Stafford is throwing the ball a lot with at least 51 pass attempts in his past two outings against Denver and Philadelphia. He's only played one game at home this season (Week 2 against the Giants), and Stafford scored 34.9 Fantasy points. This week, we could get a shootout against the Bills, who are No. 5 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. C.J. Stroud, Jared Goff and Drake Maye each scored at least 20.5 Fantasy points against Buffalo, with Goff and Maye going over 32 Fantasy points. That's the expectation I have for Stafford, who should be in a potential shootout with Josh Allen since this game has a projected total score of 53.5 points. I'm excited to see how good Stafford can be in Week 5, and he should have one of his best games of the season against Buffalo at home.
