Stafford's Interceptions vs. Commanders' D
8 Nov
Summary
- Rams lead NFL in passing yards per game.
- Commanders boast top-10 rushing yards per game.
- Matthew Stafford has thrown eight interceptions.
The Los Angeles Rams are set to visit the Washington Commanders on Sunday, November 8, 2026, for a Week 9 NFL regular season game. The Rams arrive with momentum, having won their last two contests and leading the league with an average of 274 passing yards per game. Quarterback Matthew Stafford's performance will be crucial, particularly his eight interceptions this season, as Washington's defense has only recorded four interceptions thus far.
The Commanders, currently 1-4-1, present a balanced offensive attack. They are a top-10 team in rushing yards per game, averaging 125 yards, and boast a plus-6 turnover margin, ranking third in the league. Their defense, however, allows 26.0 points per game, which is 26th in the NFL, potentially opening opportunities for the Rams' offense, especially for running back Kyren Williams who has six touchdowns on the season.
Key offensive players to watch include Puka Nacua for the Rams, who has 56 catches for 565 yards and three touchdowns, and Washington's dual-threat quarterback Jayden Daniels, who has 976 passing yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions. The game is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ET at Northwest Stadium in Landover, MD, and will be broadcast on FOX.
