Matthew Stafford Fantasy

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford had a phenomenal statistical output going 28-for-38 for 363 yards, two touchdowns, and a rushing touchdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, he made a number of almost costly mistakes. Fantasy managers must realize that this wasn't a fluke, and it's just part of the Stafford-experience; that isn't necessarily a bad thing though. For fantasy a quarterback that plays recklessly is typically not penalized that much, and this style of play can lend itself to fantasy stardom by means of comeback attempts. Sometimes, a reckless quarterback such as this can fail in the comeback attempt or even be benched, but Stafford is so talented that neither of these general concerns are major issues. In 2022, with the collection of Cooper Kupp, Odell Beckham Jr., and Robert Woods along with Cam Akers and a stellar offensive line, Stafford must be considered a top quarterback in all leagues.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 13-of-17 passes for 202 yards and two touchdowns in Monday's 34-11 Wild-Card round win over the Arizona Cardinals. He also rushed six times for 22 yards and another score. Stafford connected with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. for a four-year score in the first quarter to put the Rams on the board. The 33-year-old punched it in from the one-yard line and capped off his day with a seven-yard touchdown to star wideout Cooper Kupp. Stafford was impressive in Monday's win and will look to build on his performance in Sunday's NFC Divisional-Round matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (toe) practiced in full all week and will play on Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals to close out super wild-card weekend. Stafford picked up a minor toe injury in the Week 18 regular season finale, but it shouldn't affect him in the first week of the postseason. He's only the No. 7 QB at DraftKings based on price ($6,200) at his position for the week, but he'll be taking on a Cardinals defense that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points per game to QBs in the last three weeks. And in two games against the Cardinals this year, Stafford has completed 69% of his 71 attempts for 567 yards, five touchdowns and one interception for a QB rating of 110.5. Stafford's floor is high this week, and he has the potential to be a fine DFS value.
