STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Stafford's passing volume down since Adams injury; benefits running backs instead.

Stafford is pacing toward 644 passes and 4,560 passing yards, compared to last season's 597 attempts, 4,707 yards, and 46 TD passes (MVP season). The trend is significantly down since Davante Adams' injury, though the Rams still boast an electric offense. Both Kyren Williams and Blake Corum are averaging roughly three more fantasy points than last season, suggesting the passing volume shift is benefiting the running backs.
