Bad news for the Seattle Seahawks who were hoping for some injury luck from their opponent breaking their way. Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is expected to start against them for their Sunday rematch. Stafford will be back in action for the first time in two weeks, as he sat during the Rams’ Week 9 game against the Packers and was off during the Week 10 bye.
To make matters worse for the Seahawks, Rams head coach Sean McVay says his team is “as healthy as we’ve been since the start of the season.” You know, when Los Angeles dominated the Seahawks in Seattle to the tune of a 30-13 blowout.

Since becoming the quarterback in Los Angeles, Matthew Stafford is undefeated at 3-0 against Seattle. In those games, he has played very well, throwing for 943 yards, three touchdown passes and two interceptions. In Week 1, he did not have a score or turnover, but absolutely torched the Seahawks secondary for 334 yards.
When Stafford missed both games against Seattle last year due to injury, the Seahawks managed to claim rare wins over the Rams. But with him back in the lineup, Los Angeles has returned to their usual spot as considerable threats to Seattle.
