The Los Angeles Rams were a different team without Matthew Stafford last season. The Rams suffered from a serious Super Bowl hangover last season. As Stafford was sidelined for most of the year. The Rams missed out on the NFL Playoffs. However, the 2022 regular season is a thing of the past. Rams head coach Sean McVay is ready to move on to this coming season. Having his quarterback healthy would help with the pressure on McVay. Will Stafford be ready to start the season?
According to McVay, Stafford has no limitations physically heading into this off-season. The news is huge for the Rams. Indeed the Rams traded a lot to go all in on the 2022 Super Bowl. As a result, the Rams won the Super Bowl and cashed in on their big season. However, since that Super Bowl victory, the sky has been falling for the franchise. Including a disaster of a Super Bowl parade. Not only have they had to deal with Stafford’s injuries. But the team has seen big-time player’s like Jalen Ramsey leave Los Angeles.
Matthew Stafford Is Key To Rams Success
Coach McVay says Matthew Stafford will have ‘no limitations’ during offseason program.

Many around the league were happy to see Stafford find quick success with the Rams. The former number-one overall pick spent over a decade with the Detroit Lions. A decade with Detroit is enough to double the physical age of any player. The two greatest players in Lions history retired due to health issues. That being Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson. However, following his exit from Detroit, Matthew Stafford has yet to be healthy in his first two years with the Rams.
Stafford is known as one of the toughest players in the league. Needless to say, last season’s setback won’t affect the Rams quarterback you see on the field this season. The Rams are looking for a quick turnaround with the roster they have. The Rams are the home of the best defensive player in the league, Aaron Donald. Certainly, having both a healthy Stafford and Donald will give them a chance to make an immediate impact in 2023. For the latest NFL news, stay right here at HNHH.
