The Los Angeles Rams cannot afford to keep having Matthew Stafford throw 50-plus passes every game. It's not a winning strategy.
Bret Stuter of Ramblin' Fan argues that the Los Angeles Rams must stop relying too heavily on quarterback Matthew Stafford's arm after he threw 50 or more passes in three consecutive games. The Rams went 1-2 across that stretch, which the writer links to an unbalanced offensive game plan that consistently abandons the running game during winnable contests.
Stuter highlights that running backs Kyren Williams and Blake Corum have been effective, with the team averaging 4.6 yards per carry. Additionally, the writer cautions that the 38-year-old Stafford is currently on pace for a career-high 734 pass attempts in 2026, creating unnecessary wear on his arm before the postseason.
