Stafford's Luck Could Fade in 2026

Matthew Stafford’s MVP-caliber 2025 season might have been fueled more by luck than skill—thanks to a Pro Football Focus study revealing he had the league’s biggest positive interception variance, meaning his risky throws avoided picks more often than expected. This luck repeated in 2024, and history shows such streaks rarely last. With the Rams facing a brutal 2026 schedule and relying heavily on Stafford’s turnover luck to stay competitive, the team’s future hinges on defense and a stronger running game to compensate. One more year of interception fortune? Not a bet they can afford to make. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
