Matthew Stafford Fantasy Football Rankings & Outlook

PFM Fantasy Outlook

Matthew Stafford threw 43 passes at Washington, completing 26 for 228 yards, one touchdown and one interception in the Rams' 20-13 win. The low yards per attempt mattered because Los Angeles needed multiple possessions to move the field. Puka Nacua caught 14 passes for 150 yards but suffered knee and foot injuries, creating a serious question about the receiving group going forward. The Rams have won three straight, yet Stafford has thrown just one touchdown in each of his last two games after scoring three against Las Vegas.

Stafford has 2,374 passing yards, 16 touchdowns and nine interceptions through nine starts. PFM ranks him QB15 for Week 10 at Arizona and QB11 rest of season. The Cardinals already beat Los Angeles in an October meeting, so the Rams cannot treat this as an automatic rebound. If Nacua is unavailable, Stafford will need other pass catchers to win early and protect the offense from third-and-long situations. His recent interception totals have also increased the cost of trying to force throws when drives stall. The matchup offers opportunity, but his latest scoring efficiency gives reason for caution.
