It’s been no secret that through the first seven games of the season, Matthew Stafford has been playing at an elite level. Stafford is within the top-10 in many advanced metrics including passer rating and EPA per dropback. The Rams quarterback is also second in PFF passing grade behind only Sam Darnold. He leads the NFL in touchdown passes and big-time throws while only throwing two interceptions.
