STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Stafford's 5-of-5, 96-yard performance in 13 personnel sets signals heavy usage ahead.

Stafford excelled in 13 personnel sets in Week 1 against San Francisco, completing 5-of-5 passes for 96 yards; in all other personnel groupings, he was 10-of-20 for 59 yards. The Rams averaged 7.5 yards per play out of 13 personnel in Week 1, 1.3 yards more per play than they gained in those groupings last season. With the Rams running 13 personnel on 36.8% of snaps (6.3 percentage points higher than their 2025 league-leading rate), Stafford's efficiency in these formations positions him to lean heavily on this grouping going forward, particularly against the Giants on Monday night.
