Los Angeles Rams: Matthew Stafford's 2025 NFL MVP Season By The Numbers

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford capped off an outstanding 2025 season by winning the NFL Most Valuable Player (MVP) award on Thursday night, marking the first time in his career he received this prestigious honor. Stafford's remarkable campaign was defined by record-breaking performances and consistent excellence on the field. Throughout the regular season, he led the NFL with 4,707 passing yards and an impressive 46 touchdowns, setting a new single-season record for the Rams. His postseason performance was equally stellar, where he led the league with 936 passing yards and six touchdowns in three games, although the MVP award is based solely on regular-season performance. Stafford's consistency and efficiency were evident as he threw just eight interceptions in 17 games, a significant improvement from his 17 interceptions in 2021, the year the Rams won Super Bowl LVI. His ability to avoid turnovers was highlighted by the fact that he did not throw an interception in 12 of the 17 games he started. The Rams finished the regular season with a 12-5 record, tying the high mark for wins achieved with Stafford as the starting quarterback. His 46 touchdowns surpassed his own previous record of 41 touchdowns in 2021, as well as Kurt Warner's 41 touchdowns in 1999, both of which were Super Bowl-winning seasons for the Rams. Stafford's accuracy and efficiency were further demonstrated by completing at least 70% of his passes in five games and posting a passer rating of at least 100 in 12 games. His career-best passer rating of 109.2 tied Warner's 1999 season for the best single-season passer rating by a Rams quarterback with at least 16 starts. Stafford's 4,707 passing yards ranked third in Rams history for a single season, behind his own record of 4,886 yards set in 2021.
