Matthew Stafford has kept his mistakes tо a minimum іn recent weeks, and with the Rams likely playing with the lead оn Saturday night, we expect that trend tо continue.
Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams are red-hot right now with four straight wins and an 8-2 stretch after a 1-4 start. They have a great opportunity tо keep that going against the 7-8 Arizona Cardinals оn Saturday night.
The signal-caller has been responsible for getting the Rams going in the right direction. He has 11 touchdowns and just one interception in the last six games.

My analysis
Matthew Stafford had some trouble taking care of the football in the first half of the season. He threw an interception in Week 1 and then again in six straight games from Week 4 to Week 9. Since then, however, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback has just one interception — last week against the Jets — in seven games.
Stafford has been throwing the ball a lot less thanks tо the Rams usually being able tо hold a lead іn their games. He threw the ball just 19 times last week against the Jets and 27 attempts the week before.
The Arizona Cardinals have had some success picking off passes this season but they have just two interceptions since Week 7 — a span of nine games. Mind you, those came against Geno Smith and Drake Maye. Stafford went 19-for-27 with no touchdowns or interceptions against the Cardinals back in Week 2.

Stafford isn’t turning the ball over, and he isn’t even throwing the ball that much. He has just 46 attempts in the last two weeks, which is right around his total from multiple weeks earlier in the season.
The Rams should be able to take care of business at home against the Cardinals. Arizona lost in Carolina last week as 5.5-point favorites and has recently lost by double-digits twice to Seattle.
