Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs and is in concussion protocol, according to the Los Angeles Times . Stafford left last week's loss to the New Orleans Saints early after taking a sack, which prompted the team to evaluate him for a concussion. He said he felt numbness in his legs during that game, which came a week after he missed a game due to a concussion. Rams coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that while Stafford is in concussion protocol, he has not been diagnosed with a concussion. The Chiefs are coming off a 30-27 win over the Los Angeles Chargers last week, which was their fourth straight win.

The Rams believe Stafford suffered the concussion in Los Angeles' Week 9 loss to the Buccaneers.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Mattew Stafford is in concussion protocol, head coach Sean McVay told reporters Wednesday in an unexpected announcement. 🎥 Coach McVay says Matthew Stafford is in concussion protocol. There are no shortcuts through concussion protocol, especially now. The Rams beat the Arizona Cardinals, 18-7, with Wolford going 22-for-38 with no touchdowns and one interception. Bryce Perkins is the third quarterback on the depth chart and could also potentially see the field Sunday, though he hasn't played in a regular season game yet.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — (AP) — Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is in the concussion protocol, coach Sean McVay says. The Super Bowl-winning quarterback entered the protocol Tuesday afternoon after consultation with the Rams' medical staff, the team confirmed Wednesday. McVay said the Rams (3-5) haven't determined whether Stafford can play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. Stafford hasn't yet missed any of his first 29 games with the Rams. Los Angeles has lost four of its past five games to fall two games below .500 for the first time in McVay's coaching career.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is in the concussion protocol, coach Sean McVay says.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is in the concussion protocol, and coach Sean McVay is uncertain whether the Super Bowl winner will be ready to play Sunday against Arizona. Stafford entered the protocol Tuesday afternoon after consultation with the Rams' medical staff, the team announced Wednesday. The Rams believe Stafford's condition resulted from action in last Sunday's 16-13 loss at Tampa Bay, and the team decided to put him in the protocol after the usual weekly round of postgame health evaluations.

The Chiefs quarterback etched his name in the record book once again.

Tom Brady tossed a 1-yard touchdown pass to Cade Otton with 9 seconds remaining, giving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a 16-13 victory over the Los Angeles Rams in a sloppy matchup of the past two Super Bowl champions.

But Matthew Stafford, who threw for 158 yards and one TD, was unable to run out the clock on the Rams’ final possession. Brady, who owns nearly every meaningful league passing record, went over the mark in his 374th career game, including playoffs. Tampa Bay’s red-zone problems persisted, with Brady settling for Succop’s 20-yard field goal on the Bucs’ opening possession. Meanwhile, Stafford’s long TD pass to Kupp accounted for most of the 104 yards the Rams gained before halftime. Brady led a drive to the Rams 6 on his next possession, but the threat stalled with three straight incompletions into the end zone.

Tom Brady tossed a 1-yard touchdown pass to rookie Cade Otton with 9 seconds remaining, giving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a 16-13 victory over the Los Angeles Rams in a sloppy matchup of the past two Super Bowl champions.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey became the first person to complete the trifecta of touchdowns since LaDainian Tomlinson in 2005.

McCaffrey threw a 34-yard TD pass to Brandon Aiyuk in the first half, caught a TD pass from Jimmy Garoppolo in the third quarter and then put the Niners (4-4) in control with a TD run early in the fourth. McCaffrey finished with 94 yards rushing and 55 yards receiving. LaDainian Tomlinson was the last player with rushing, passing and receiving TDs in the same game, doing it for San Diego back in 2005. The Niners tied it a few minutes later on McCaffrey's TD pass off a fake screen. Samuel threw a TD pass against the Rams last season.

Christian McCaffrey became the 11th player in NFL history with a rushing touchdown, a passing touchdown and a receiving touchdown in one game, and the San Francisco 49ers extended their regular-season mastery over the Rams to four full years with a 31-14 victory over Los Angeles.

In keeping with spooky season, this week we offer a terrifying six pack of the scariest stats available. He's coming off a week in which he played a season-low 16 snaps and handled just four touches. This man found the end zone nine times last year and a league-leading 21 times the season before. 12.29 - This is Matthew Stafford's average weekly fantasy point total in Yahoo default settings, an atrocious number for any quarterback. Stafford is facing a weekend matchup with the Niners, a team that sacked him seven times and pick-six'd him in Week 4.

The Los Angeles Rams are used to making the NFL’s boldest moves and getting the big-name players they want.

Can we finally start Tony Pollard.

Matthew Stafford etched his name alongside Dan Marino in the NFL record books on Sunday. The Rams quarterback launched a second-down pass in Cooper Kupp's direction against the Carolina Panthers. It instead landed in the hands of Carolina cornerback Donte Jackson, who returned the interception 30 yards for a touchdown. Action in LA 🎬 pic.twitter.com/infW3dQrGe — Carolina Panthers (@Panthers) October 16, 2022The pick-6 was the 29th of his career, moving him into a tie with Marino for the second-most in NFL history. Just not the way Stafford would like to join them.

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — When the Los Angeles Rams suffered their second straight loss last Sunday, head coach Sean McVay absolved his quarterback. “I think he’s doing everything he can,” McVay said of Matthew Stafford after the Rams managed just 10 points a week after producing only nine. “Guys,” McVay said, “(have) got to play better around him.”That starts with the Rams' offensive line, whose issue is apparent. Excuses, McVay quipped, are for the “weak-minded.” So the Rams are not considering that turnover their problem. I believe in everybody in this offense, we all know the assignments and we’ll get it done.

Quarterback Russell Wilson was back on the practice field throwing passes Tuesday just four days after flying to Los Angeles to get an injection to ease the discomfort in his ailing throwing shoulder.

Dallas Cowboys defensive end Micah Parsons took to social media to call out NFL referees for seemingly favoring offensive players more than defensive ones.

They stocked their roster with top end talent for years and won a Super Bowl because of it. Injuries to the interior of the Rams' line have made their offense more difficult to manage, but even some entrenched starters are struggling. Stafford, Ramsey, Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp account for 40.5% of the Rams' cap space this season. The hard pill to swallow is that their offensive line issues are going to plague them for the rest of the season. It’s difficult to find quality offensive line help in-season, so the Rams will have to figure out ways to mitigate those woes as the year progresses.

Joe Burrow averaged a measly 3.4 air yards per attempt against the Ravens, the lowest among any quarterback in Week 5. He averaged 4.2 air yards per target. On the other hand, you can't then veer so sharply in the other direction that your star receiver gets a total of 50 air yards. Brown ranks sixth in team air yards share (39.5%) and 15th in team target share (26.6%). He had a good Week 1, an excellent Week 2, a slow Week 3 and got hurt in Week 4.

The Dallas Cowboys picked up their fourth consecutive victory and Cooper Rush remained undefeated as a starter with a big win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

With Rush going 10 for 16, the running game and the Cowboys' impressive defense took charge in yet another strong game. Lawrence scooped it and scored the second touchdown of his nine-year career. MISCOMMUNICATIONThe Cowboys missed the extra point on Lawrence's touchdown because new long snapper Matt Overton hit holder Bryan Anger in the head with the football while Anger was looking elsewhere. Rams: LG David Edwards left the game in the fourth quarter for a concussion evaluation after colliding with Lawrence. ... DB David Long (groin) missed his third straight game, and rookie DB Cobie Durant (hamstring) missed his second straight.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — The Dallas Cowboys’ visit to the Los Angeles Rams ended as it started: with Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford running for his life and the Cowboys defense taking the ball away. Stafford dropped back on third-and-11 with 3:38 to play, scrambling just barely to his right before he unleashed a pass and was knocked down by Cowboys defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa. From there, Dallas’ defense held off en route to a 22-10 victory and 4-1 start. The Cowboys won their fourth straight game this season with Rush under center as Dak Prescott heals from a thumb fracture. In the end, a 28-of-42, 308-yard performance from Stafford wasn’t enough to overcome the Cowboys’ defensive effort.

DeMarcus Lawrence returned a fumble 19 yards for a touchdown on the Rams’ opening drive, and Cooper Rush remained unbeaten as the Dallas Cowboys’ fill-in starter despite passing for just 102 yards in a 22-10 victory over Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Rams offense is a major concern right nowThe Rams offense has gotten off to a terrible start this season. Robinson being a free-agent bust so far is definitely hindering the Rams, but he's not the biggest area of concern for the team. It's fairly amazing that the Panthers' quarterback play has been so bad that Darnold may legitimately be an upgrade over Mayfield. Hill is averaging 119 yards per game this season, 15.4 yards per reception and catching over 72% of his targets. Pederson has spearheaded the revival of the Jaguars as a top NFL team rather quickly and has mostly had Trevor Lawrence living up to his potential as a franchise quarterback.

The San Francisco 49ers didn't let the Los Angeles Rams breathe on offense, as their defense set the tone in a 24-9 divisional win on Monday night.

Deebo Samuel turned a short catch into an electric 57-yard touchdown, Talanoa Hufanga returned an interception for a score and the San Francisco 49ers beat the Los Angeles Rams 24-9.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes etched his name in the NFL record book. Again.

The Los Angeles Rams almost pulled an Atlanta Falcons against the Atlanta Falcons, but defending champs held on late for their first win of the season.

Early in the third quarter, the Rams took a 28-3 lead on the Falcons, and oh, did the jokes start flying on social media. If nothing else, the Falcons — who famously blew a 28-3 lead in Super Bowl LI — knew that it's possible to come back from that deficit, right? After posting that 28-3 lead, the Rams proceeded to unravel in the following fashion:-Matthew Stafford threw an interception — his third of the day — a turnover that eventually led to a Falcons touchdown. The key here for the Rams is survive and advance; there are no style points in the NFL. And fourth-quarter collapses involving Atlanta are supposed to be the Falcons collapsing, not the other way around.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — (AP) — Matthew Stafford threw for 272 yards and three touchdowns, Jalen Ramsey intercepted a potential go-ahead touchdown pass in the end zone and the Los Angeles Rams held off a second-half rally attempt by the Atlanta Falcons for a 31-27 victory Sunday. Los Angeles turned it over on their ensuing drive when Darren Hall forced Kupp to fumble and recovered it at the Rams 37. On third-and-13 from the Rams 24, Mariota tried to find Bryan Edwards, but it was picked off by Ramsey. Los Angeles took a safety when returner Brandon Powell ran out of the end zone on punt formation after a three-and-out. Kupp caught a 3-yard TD with 18 seconds remaining in the first half to give the Rams a 21-3 lead.

Matthew Stafford threw for 272 yards and three touchdowns, Jalen Ramsey intercepted a potential go-ahead touchdown pass in the end zone and the Los Angeles Rams held off a second-half rally attempt by the Atlanta Falcons for a 31-27 victory.

Drake London spent the past three seasons tearing up college defenses for USC, so football fans in his native Southern California weren't surprised when the big receiver got off to a strong NFL start with the Atlanta Falcons. The Los Angeles Rams fans in that SoCal contingent are hoping their Super Bowl champions can come up with ways to slow down London for just one week when the Falcons visit SoFi Stadium on Sunday for a meeting of teams hoping to avoid 0-2 starts. London caught 160 passes for 2,153 yards and 16 touchdowns in 27 games at USC before the Falcons made him the eighth overall draft pick last spring.

Preseason rest appeared to lead to a little bit of rust in Week 1 for several of the NFL’s top quarterbacks.

LOS ANGELES — (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams' honeymoon from their Super Bowl championship didn't even last until the first Sunday of the next regular season. This loss even threw open the possibility that the Rams don't even have the personnel to be among the NFL's best teams. The Rams lost two Super Bowl starters on the line and replaced them from within, but the new group looked overmatched. STOCK UPTroy Hill marked his return to Los Angeles after a year in Cleveland with a team-high eight tackles and his first interception since 2020. KEY NUMBER0: Rushing yards by Cam Akers, the Super Bowl starter and the running back with the most explosive capabilities.

The Los Angeles Rams’ honeymoon from their Super Bowl championship didn’t even last until the first Sunday of the next regular season.

The Rams' 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills was the first time in six openers that McVay has been on the losing end. It was also the second-worst loss by a defending Super Bowl champion, with Baltimore's 49-27 loss at Denver in 2013 the standard. “It was very humbling night but one where you look yourself in the mirror and say you have to be better," McVay said. We all have to play better defense.”Defending Super Bowl champions dropped to 45-11-1 in openers. McVay wasn't ready to declare his team was experiencing a championship hangover.

Sean McVay knows that one of the prices of longevity in the NFL is that eventually he’s going to experience a lot of good and bad things as a coach.

But he was just one part of a defense that yielded only 177 yards before Los Angeles' final, meaningless drive. Los Angeles trailed 17-10 after three quarters, but Buffalo ran away with two lengthy TD drives early in the fourth quarter. With Dorsey taking over from Brian Daboll, the Bills went 9 for 10 on third downs and racked up 413 total yards, but three first-half turnovers kept it close early. Los Angeles finally scored on its fourth drive when Kupp made an exceptional toe-tapping catch in the back of the end zone on a precise throw three minutes before halftime. The Rams played without WR Van Jefferson, who had knee surgery early in training camp after starting 21 games last season.

Josh Allen passed for 297 yards while accounting for four touchdowns as the Buffalo Bills stamped themselves as a clear contender for the Rams’ Super Bowl crown with a 31-10 victory over Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Rams will kickoff the 2022 NFL Season against the Buffalo Bills Thursday night at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC.

The last time Melissa Stark was regularly on the sidelines, Tom Brady was a one-time Super Bowl champion, and Matthew Stafford was a freshman in high school. As Stark returns to sideline duty for the first time since 2002 after starting a family, Brady is still in the league and has added six more rings to his Super Bowl collection. Stafford is part of the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams.

“Going to play the defending Super Bowl champs and watching them raise their banner, that’ll be an interesting feeling for sure,” Allen said.

Matthew Stafford downplayed the significance of his elbow injury after demonstrating just how little it's holding him back in practice with the Los Angeles Rams. Afterward, Stafford said his right elbow condition is merely “irritating,” and not a threat to his ability to lead the Super Bowl champions' title defense. I felt pretty good today. “I’m just going through something that is irritating at the moment, but I’m working through it,” Stafford said. “Anytime you put an arm through as much stress as I have over the years, it’s not going to look like (a regular person's) elbow, I’m sure,” Stafford said.

Matthew Stafford downplayed the significance of his elbow injury after showing just how little it’s holding him back in practice with the Los Angeles Rams.

Coach Sean McVay says Matthew Stafford's continuing elbow pain is unusual for a football player, and the Los Angeles Rams are trying to determine whether it will hamper their starting quarterback in the regular season. Stafford has been throwing in individual drills and 7-on-7 setups while skipping the full-team portions of the defending Super Bowl champions' training camp practices at UC Irvine. Stafford had an unspecified injection in his elbow during the offseason, and he reported feeling ongoing pain in the joint last month after not doing any serious throwing in the Rams' offseason program.
