There is a new No. 1 seed in the NFC.
The Rams got out to an early lead and kept it throughout Sunday night’s matchup, with Los Angeles coming away with a blowout 34-7 victory over Tampa Bay.
But Sunday’s loss was particularly costly for the Buccaneers, with quarterback Baker Mayfield suffering a left shoulder injury that kept him sidelined for the entire second half.
The Rams scored touchdowns on each of their first three drives and added a 50-yard pick-six from Cobie Durant, who ripped a ball away from tight end Cade Otton in the first quarter.
Matthew Stafford played at an MVP level while the game was still in the balance in the first half, completing his first 12 passes. He tossed two touchdown passes to Davante Adams and one to tight end Colby Parkinson in the first two quarters. With his third TD, Stafford became just the fourth quarterback ever to throw for at least 30 touchdowns with five or fewer interceptions in his team’s first 11 games of the season, joining Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, and Patrick Mahomes.
