Los Angeles Rams Secure Best NFC Record After Defeating Buccaneers
INGLEWOOD, Calif. – The Los Angeles Rams, with a resounding 34-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night, solidified the best record in the National Conference (NFC), standing at an impressive 9-2 record. This achievement marks the first time the Rams have led the NFC since Week 13 of the 2018 season. Coach Sean McVay highlighted the importance of this milestone, although he emphasized that the priority is to maintain impeccable preparation each week.McVay expressed his confidence in the team, betting on the players’ ability to face the challenges ahead. In the remaining six games of the regular season, the Rams will face three teams with a record above .500: Carolina Panthers, Detroit Lions, and Seattle Seahawks. The forecasts indicate that the Rams are the favorites in each of these matches. Currently, the Rams are seen as the favorites to win the Super Bowl. This is the first time they have been considered favorites at any point in the season since December 2018.I love how we’ve responded to some setbacks. I love how we’ve handled a bit of success. And over the course of 11 weeks, I’m proud of them. Now let’s see what we can do in 12.
Sean McVay
During the Rams’ six-game winning streak, quarterback Matthew Stafford has been the key figure. Stafford has positioned himself as the leading candidate to win the NFL’s Most Valuable Player (MVP) award.I think our mindset is simply to go out there every week and find a way to win.

In the game against the Buccaneers, “MVP” chants echoed in SoFi Stadium after Stafford’s touchdown passes. The quarterback completed 25 of 35 passes for 273 yards and three touchdowns, in a match that the Buccaneers found difficult from halftime.He’s playing like the league’s most valuable player. You can see it in the numbers, the way he takes command in the center and the offense, the way he and Sean [McVay] put things together and work together during the week to prepare a good product for us. Overall. I mean, he’s a great leader and obviously knows how to put points on the board and keep this offense moving.

If Stafford is named MVP in 2025, he would become the oldest player in NFL history to receive the award for the first time. He would also be the third-oldest player to win the award overall. According to Elias, Stafford has thrown 27 consecutive touchdown passes without interceptions, the longest streak since play-by-play was recorded in 1978. It’s hard to put it into words… Most quarterbacks can’t throw 27 passes without throwing an interception.When you have a quarterback like that, like a Hall of Famer on the first ballot, where you know he’s going to come out, he’s going to score points, it makes things easier for us.
