Matthew Stafford looks to extend streak of playoff games with multiple TD passes

Matthew Stafford looks to extend streak of playoff games with multiple TD passes

Our Summary

The Los Angeles Rams, as 10.5-point favorites, are set to face the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, with quarterback Matthew Stafford on the brink of a significant postseason milestone. Stafford has thrown multiple touchdown passes in seven consecutive playoff games. Achieving this feat in the upcoming game would tie him with Joe Flacco for the second-longest streak in NFL history. If Stafford continues the streak in a subsequent game and the Rams win, he could match Aaron Rodgers' record of nine straight playoff games with multiple touchdown passes.

Stafford's efforts will be supported by Puka Nacua, who led the league with 129 receptions, and the return of Davante Adams from a hamstring injury. Adams led the league with 14 touchdown receptions in 14 games. The Rams aim to avenge their regular-season loss to the Panthers and potentially set up a rematch with Seattle, following one of the most memorable regular-season games in recent years.
