Matthew Stafford makes NFL history after 150th touchdown pass with Rams in wild OT loss to Bills

Matthew Stafford is now the first quarterback in NFL history to throw for at least 150 touchdowns with two different franchises.

Matthew Stafford achieved a historic milestone in the NFL on Monday night, as he connected with Davante Adams for his 150th career touchdown pass with the Los Angeles Rams. The pass tied the game at 34-34 during overtime, marking Stafford as the first quarterback in NFL history to reach 150 touchdown passes with two different franchises.

Stafford threw for a total of 383 yards, completing 40 of his 54 attempts, and added three more touchdowns via two other passes. His lone touchdown reception came on a 2-yard toss to Puka Nacua, who had an impressive game with 17 catches for 138 yards. Despite Stafford's stellar performance, the Rams fell short in a thrilling 37-34 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Stafford, who spent the majority of his career with the Detroit Lions before being traded to the Rams in 2021, now has 432 career passing touchdowns, placing him sixth on the NFL all-time list. With the Rams struggling on the season at 2-3, Stafford's continued excellence raises questions about his future Hall of Fame candidacy and whether he can lead the team to another championship before hanging up his cleats.
