Compelling Stafford Interception Stats

[Karate61]

I can't recall where I heard this 2021 season game stat on Matthew Stafford, but it was within the last few days.

Stafford No Interceptions
Won-Loss Record 7-0

Stafford 1+ Interceptions
Won-Loss Record 6-5

That is a very telling stat. No interceptions equal Rams wins. 1+ interception(s) and the Rams are in for a dogfight.

Stafford had a beautiful game Monday night. Only 17 throws, but that's perfect. And, no Interceptions!

Unlike his years in Detroit, he has a full "team" built around him now. It's not "all" on him.

McVay came out running that ball...finally. With Michele and now Akers, how can he not run first? What a 1-2 punch between the two of them. I can't recall a potentially better combo of a two-headed monster than these two.

The run game allowed Stafford to relax. He didn't have to carry the team like in Detroit. And, he relaxed and threw some great balls, all 17 of them. Highest QB Rating in a playoff in Rams history. That's amazing!

This needs to be the Rams game plan going forward. Run the ball, thereby setting up the pass, and Stafford throwing those darts.

This is the team Stafford was brought in for. He needs to take advantage of it, as he did against the Cards. There's no reason for him to force plays and throw high, off target balls we've seen him throw. No reason any longer to force a play and cause a pick, as he has on some occasions this season.

Stafford was brought in to win the big games. He's got the team he needs. If he can duplicate the Cards game 3 more times, with NO Interceptions, he'll most likely be a super bowl champion.

So, Stafford. Keep tossing your beautiful passes, but dont; don't toss interceptions and it will be all roses!

Go Rams!

Go Rams!

I totally agree with you, but the problem is if the whiners and Rams win, we play them again and they are really good at stopping the run against us. It sickens me to think they would have been out of the playoffs if we had beaten them in that last game.

The ints can be indicative of games that were close or the opponents defense was particularly difficult to handle, like the Titans defensive line was. Most of the ints were a result of a lot of pressure on Stafford and his first read being covered. Some of that is on the Oline and some is on play call. McVay was able to avoid that with a good run game against the Cardinals.
