Stafford ranks 14th from the bottom and is middle of the pack in the same metric. He also has eight TWP's but has thrown twice as many interceptions. That's not a sign of good fortune.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Stafford's turnover luck and Rams' weak red zone offense face Bills' elite red zone defense.

Stafford ranks 14th from the bottom in TWP rate with 8 TWP's but has thrown 16 interceptions, double Allen's total, indicating poor turnover luck. Stafford earns a negative PFF grade on 10.3% of his plays (10th-worst in NFL), worse than Allen's 9.0% (14th). The Rams rank 21st in red zone TD rate at 53.33%, a significant drop from last season's 64.37% (7th-ranked). Against Buffalo's 9th-ranked red zone defense (68.75% TD rate), Stafford's turnover issues and the Rams' weak red zone execution put LA at a disadvantage in a game likely decided by red zone performance and ball security.
