By the numbers: Matthew Stafford sets records and makes history with recent stretch

At the age of 37, Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is playing the best football of his career. That seems hard to believe given his age and all the concerns about his bad back this summer, but it’s the undeniable truth.

Not only that, but he’s been the best quarterback in the NFL this season. He’s the new MVP favorite, leads the league with 25 touchdown passes and only has two interceptions in his nine starts this year.

His season-long numbers are wildly impressive, but his play in the last six games has been historic. After throwing five touchdown passes and two interceptions in the first three games, he’s tossed 20 touchdown passes and no picks in the six games since. He’s averaging 281.3 yards per game and has a 122 passer rating during that stretch, too.

As Puka Nacua put it after Sunday’s 42-26 win over the San Francisco 49ers, Stafford is “on a heater.”

There’s no telling when Stafford’s hot stretch will end, but before it does, we’re taking a look at all the history he’s making and records he’s setting.

First player in NFL history with 4 TDs, 0 INTs in 3 straight games

Stafford has diced up the defenses of the Jaguars, Saints and 49ers in the last three weeks, throwing four touchdown passes in each of those three games. He’s the first player in NFL history to throw at least four touchdown passes and no picks in three straight games, while also becoming the seventh player all-time with four touchdown passes in three consecutive games.

Aaron Rodgers did have a three-game stretch of four touchdown passes and no picks, but that included a postseason game. Stafford is the first to do it in the regular season.

2nd-most consecutive TD passes without an INT

Since throwing a first-quarter interception against the Eagles in Week 3, Stafford has thrown 22 touchdown passes and no picks. His 22 straight touchdown passes without an interception are the second-most in a season, trailing only Tom Brady’s 26 in 2010.

1st QB in franchise history with 4 TD passes in 3 straight games

Stafford’s recent three-game streak of four touchdown passes in each one is the first of its kind in franchise history. No Rams player has ever had such a stretch – not even the great Kurt Warner.

Most TD passes in a 3-game span in franchise history

Warner previously held the franchise record for the most touchdown passes in a three-game span, tossing 11 in 1999 and 2000. But with his four touchdown passes on Sunday, Stafford now has 12 in his last three games to break Warner’s record.

Only QB in NFL history with 20 TDs and 0 INTs in a 6-game span

Stafford’s last six games have been outstanding, throwing 20 touchdown passes and no picks to go with a 5-1 record. He’s the first quarterback in league history with 20 touchdown passes and no interceptions in a six-game span during a single season.

9th player ever to reach 400 career touchdown passes

While this stat doesn’t pertain to his recent stretch, it does show the longevity and success Stafford has had in his career. He became the ninth quarterback in NFL history to throw 400 touchdown passes in his career, doing so on a throw to Davis Allen in the second quarter Sunday.
