If not for a blocked field goal, they would be sitting at 4-0. Despite that, they are 3-1 and look like the most complete team in the NFC West.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>A big reason for their success is that quarterback <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/S\/StafMa00.htm\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Matthew Stafford;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Matthew Stafford<\/a> is playing like his normal self, throwing eight touchdowns to just two interceptions through four games. This may come off as a shock to some fans, though, as Stafford dealt with a back injury through the offseason and the majority for training camp.<\/p>\n<p>The cherry on top of the problematic cake was an ammortal chamber being brought to practice. And while it was said that the chamber wasn&#8217;t just for Stafford, many pulled back their pre-season admiration for the Rams, and silly conspiracy theories began that Stafford was cloned. The star quarterback appeared on\u00a0The Pat McAfee Show\u00a0and made light of the theory.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My clone is having a hell of a first four games,&#8221; Stafford joked. &#8220;He&#8217;s dealing to Puka right now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The vibes are high in Los Angeles, as they should be. The Rams look like a true contender, and they are as balanced as anyone in the league.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029Vakw2IH60eBZ4UO1Iz1b\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More NFL news:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rams QB Matthew Stafford leans into viral conspiracy theory on Pat McAfee Show originally appeared on The Sporting&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":409587,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2079],"tags":[68230,7,1014,58,2444,2611,32,6,7549,1074,424,3416],"class_list":{"0":"post-409586","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-rams","8":"tag-blocked-field-goal","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-los-angeles","11":"tag-los-angeles-rams","12":"tag-losangeles","13":"tag-losangelesrams","14":"tag-matthew-stafford","15":"tag-nfl","16":"tag-pat-mcafee-show","17":"tag-puka","18":"tag-rams","19":"tag-the-rams"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115294812759553969","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409586","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=409586"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/409586\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/409587"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=409586"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=409586"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=409586"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
