STACKED’s take
Stafford's downfield success vs. Giants faces resistance from Broncos' elite secondary.
Stafford and Adams dominated the Giants in Week 2 by pushing the ball downfield, with Stafford targeting Adams 8 times on downfield throws (10+ air yards) and connecting on 7 for 191 yards and 2 touchdowns. In Week 3 against Denver, the Rams will likely meet more resistance to that vertical passing plan. The source notes Stafford is one of the league's best at pushing the ball and using all portions of the field, but the downfield opportunities available against the Giants will be more limited against the Broncos' elite secondary, particularly Surtain. The Rams may need to employ a more underneath, conservative approach while still looking for opportunities to attack Denver's secondary elsewhere.
