Matthew Stafford, Rams Stayed Pass-Leaving Before Getting Merciful
The Rams entered Sunday as the league's most pass-heavy offense since Week 5, by pass rate over expected. The 43 team carries vs. 32 pass attempts in the victory over New Orleans might seem to signal a change on that front. But the Rams didn't lean run until the second half of a lopsided victory. QB Matthew Stafford went 18-of-23 passing for 215 yards and 3 TDs in the first half alone. He finished 24-of-32 for 281 yards and 4 TDs (among five the team scored in all).
