Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams hardly broke a sweat against the New England Patriots defense in Sunday's Week 11 matchup.
Stafford completed 18 of his 27 passes for 295 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions in L.A.'s 28-22 win. Star wide receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua combined for 13 catches, 229 yards, and three TDs. One of Kupp's TDs was a 69-yarder against a Cover 0 blitz on second-and-9 to start the second half.
That play call, along with several others, proved costly in the Patriots' eighth loss of the season. Former Pats linebacker Ted Johnson identified the defensive play calling as the top reason for New England's defeat.
