Yahoo Sports NFL on Matthew Stafford

Stafford's 3-TE scheme limits upside despite Chargers' weak pass defense.

The Rams used 3-TE sets at a league-high rate last game without Davante Adams, and that'll continue to be their plan, likely meaning a far lower average depth of target with narrower margins. Stafford was QB11 last week in a blowout win; he's QB13 in fantasy points per game on QB2 yards, QB6 touchdowns, and QB34 rushing. Puka Nacua looks like he isn't at 100% on tape. He draws a Chargers defense that is 25th in half PPR points allowed to QBs, surrendering just 13.0 fantasy points per game to QB passing (27th). Los Angeles enters as 6.5-point home favorites with a 26.0-point team total (fifth).
