Ever since the Detroit Lions traded Matthew Stafford in 2021, the franchise hasn't been able to shake their former quarterback in important head-to-head matchups.
Not only did Stafford meet up against Detroit in the 2021 regular season, he competed against them in the Wild Card round in 2023, and again in the season opener of the 2024 season. While each of those games were exciting and significant, perhaps no contest will be as big as 2025's.
In Week 15, the 10-3 Rams play host to the 8-5 Lions in a game that has major regular season significance for the playoff picture.
