Overview
- Stafford threw two first‑half touchdown passes on Monday, with a 31‑yard strike to Davante Adams and a 10‑yard pass to Kyren Williams that was the 425th touchdown of his NFL career tying Philip Rivers.
- He was highly efficient in the early part of the game, completing 10 of 12 passes for 157 yards while Davante Adams had four catches for 118 yards and a touchdown.
- Those two scores raised Stafford’s total with the Rams to 143 franchise touchdown passes, moving him into sole possession of second place on the team list behind Roman Gabriel’s 154.
- Analysts and team posts say Stafford is on pace to pass Gabriel’s Rams mark later this season provided he remains healthy and available to play.
- By tying Rivers at 425 career TDs Stafford now sits among the all‑time leaders well behind Brett Favre’s 508 and Tom Brady’s 649, showing how his late‑career production has shifted franchise and league records.
