Matthew Stafford's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 19 of his 27 pass attempts for 209 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Monday's Wild Card win over the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran signal-caller also took two sacks in the contest. All in all, this was a highly productive showing from Stafford and the Rams' offense. The 36-year-old had averaged 153 yards and just 0.3 passing touchdowns over his last three games, so the Rams' playoff win allowed him to get back on track with his highest yardage and touchdown totals since Week 14. His performance suggests that he's still capable of outperforming talented defenses when necessary, including pivotal playoff matchups. Fresh off dismantling the Minnesota Vikings, Stafford will turn around and prepare for another talented NFC team, the Philadelphia Eagles, in the Divisional Round.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will look to get back on track on Monday Night Football against the Vikings in the Rams home Wild Card matchup. Stafford's Rams went on a late-season surge to the playoffs, but the veteran signal-caller's numbers trended in the wrong direction. He only threw for more than 200 yards once in his last five games and only threw one touchdown over his last three contests. The Rams relied heavily on their defense and Kyren Williams during their five-game winning streak to overcome Stafford's struggles. If the Rams want to advance, they'll need him to get back to the form he showed earlier in the season, including in his previous matchup against the Vikings. In Week 8 on Thursday Night Football, Stafford threw four touchdown passes and racked up 279 passing yards in the Rams' 30-20 victory. Stafford took last week off to rest for the playoffs, where he'll try to guide the Rams to more postseason success. His recent struggles make him hard to trust for fantasy lineups this Monday.

The Los Angeles Rams will rest quarterback Matthew Stafford in the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, according to head coach Sean McVay. Even though the Rams can fall from the No. 3 seed to the No. 4 seed in the NFL postseason picture with a loss to Seattle coupled with a win by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, the Rams are prioritizing rest for key players on both sides of the ball. LA will also sit star receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp and starting running back Kyren Williams. With Stafford getting the week off, backup Jimmy Garoppolo will make his first start for the Rams at home at Sofi Stadium against the visiting Seahawks. Stafford finishes his fourth season with the Rams with 3,762 passing yards, 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions in his 16 starts.
