BALLER MOVE: Start in 12 Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1
ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been playing at a phenomenal level in the past few weeks. He will go up against the New York Giants in a crucial game for his team's playoff aspirations.
In his last five games, Stafford has thrown for 1,388 yards, 14 touchdowns, and just one interception with a passer rating of 114.2. The entire Rams offense, featuring Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, is available to play against the Giants, and the veteran quarterback is expected to have another big game. Moreover, the RotoBaller staff has him currently ranked #9 ahead of Week 17.
The Giants are giving up an average of 24.7 points and 229.7 passing yards per game this season. In their last game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Giants gave up 33 points and allowed Jalen Hurts to throw for 301 yards.
Stafford is heating up at the right moment, as the Rams are projected to be a dark horse contender in the playoffs this season. However, for that to be possible, the 35-year-old quarterback needs to lead his team to a win today.
