Matthew Stafford Makes NFL Passing History During Rams-Raiders Game
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford made passing history during the first half of Sunday's game against Raiders.
In a Week 7 game on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders, Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford made NFL passing history and led his team to a 28-3 halftime lead. Stafford's performance in the first half was remarkable, as he completed 17 of 19 passes for 148 yards and three touchdowns. This achievement marked a significant milestone for Stafford, who became the all-time leader in passing touchdowns for the Rams with 155 touchdown passes.
This record also made him the first quarterback in NFL history to have a career touchdown pass record for two different league teams. Stafford, who had previously led the Detroit Lions in passing touchdowns, accomplished this feat just in his sixth season with the Rams. During the game, Stafford was asked about leading the league in passing yards, but he remained focused on scoring points with the Rams, stating, "I don’t think too much about that."
Despite being 38 years old, Stafford continues to play at a high level, having thrown for 1,794 yards, 11 touchdowns, and six interceptions in his team's first six games of the season.
