Matthew Stafford Faces Division-Rival Niners In Week 8
2 years agoLos Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 8. The Rams have lost four of their last five games to the Niners, including a 9-24 blowout in Week 4, and Stafford has struggled against the division rivals going back to 2021. Last season, he threw for just 481 yards, four touchdowns, and four interceptions against San Fran in two regular season games. The 49ers defense ranks sixth-best at limited opponent passing yards per game and third-best in total defense. They are sacking opposing quarterbacks at the second-highest rate. Matthew Stafford has been playing poorly when pressured, and his offensive line hasn't been holding up. Niners DE Nick Bosa has been terrorizing opposing QBs. The signs all point to Matthew Stafford struggling in Week 8.
