The Los Angeles Rams have pinned their hopes on starting quarterback Matthew Stafford getting healthy for the 2025 season. If he can’t answer the bell, the team is turning to veteran Jimmy Garoppolo to handle the offense until Stafford is back under center. On paper, it looks like a solid plan.
But on the football field, the plan to put Jimmy G under center is far from immune to disappointment. His track record isn’t a revelation; it’s a book written over many years of his NFL career. Garoppolo struggles when pressured or faced with tight coverage.
