    Rams single-game passing records: Most yards, TDs, INTs and more historic stats

    The Los Angeles Rams have had some great quarterbacks suit up for them over the years, with Matthew Stafford being the current signal caller for the iconic franchise. Before him, though, there was Jared Goff, Kurt Warner, Norm Van Brocklin and Jim Everett.

    Stafford has been a major bright spot for the Rams since being traded to L.A. in 2021 but he hasn’t yet cracked the list for any single-game passing records – not that it takes away from the impressive numbers he’s put up in Los Angeles.

    Looking back, here are some of the most notable single-game passing records in Rams history, many of which are held by Goff. These are regular-season records, so they don’t include playoff games.

    Most passing yards: 554, Norm Van Brocklin (1951 vs. Yanks)

    Most TD passes: 5, 10 times

    Bob Waterfield (1949 vs. Bulldogs, 1951 vs. Packers)
    Norm Van Brocklin (1950 vs. Lions, 1951 vs. Yanks)
    Roman Gabriel (1965 vs. Browns)
    Vince Ferragamo (1980 vs. 49ers, 1983 vs. Saints)
    Jim Everett (1988 vs. Giants)
    Kurt Warner (1999 vs. 49ers)
    Jared Goff (2018 vs. Vikings)

    Most interceptions: 7, two times

    Parker Hall (1942 vs. Packers)
    Bob Waterfield (1948, vs. Packers)

    Highest completion percentage (min. 20 attempts): 87%, Kurt Warner (1999 vs. 49ers)

    Highest passer rating: 158.3, three times

    Kurt Warner (1999 vs. Bengals)
    Kurt Warner (2000 vs. Chargers)
    Jared Goff (2018 vs. Vikings)

    Most completions: 45, Jared Goff (2019 vs. Buccaneers)

    Most attempts: 68, Jared Goff (2019 vs. Buccaneers)

    Most sacks taken: 10, two times

    Bill Munson (1964 vs. 49ers)
    James Harris (1976 vs. 49ers)

    I don’t remember it either. Had to look it up.

    September 29th, 2019. Tampa at Rams. Goff: 45 of 68 for 517, w/ 2 TDs, 3 INTs, 1 FL. The FL led to a TD. Rams had only 28 yds rushing on 11 carries.

    from Rams pay the price for 13 penalties in 55-40 loss to Buccaneers: https://www.latimes.com/sports/rams/story/2019-09-29/rams-pay-the-price-for-13-penalties-in-55-40-loss-to-buccaneers

    A slow-starting offense and suddenly porous defense were not the only problems for the Rams in their 55-40 loss to Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at the Coliseum.

    The Rams were penalized 13 times for 106 yards.

    from Where has the Rams’ running game gone? Gurley has five carries, team finishes with 28 rushing yards and Goff throws the ball 68 times in 55-40 loss to Tampa Bay: https://www.dailynews.com/2019/09/29/alexander-where-has-the-rams-running-game-gone/

    An almost invisible running game amassed 28 yards on 11 carries out of the Rams’ 81 offensive plays. Todd Gurley had 16 in five carries, 13 of those on one carry for one of his two touchdowns.

    Goff, meanwhile, threw the ball 68 times, completed 45 for 517 yards and two touchdowns, but was hurried and pressured all day. He threw three interceptions, lost yet another fumble – returned for a score by former teammate Ndamukong Suh during the Rams’ last, desperate drive to tie the game – was sacked once and was hit nine times. Really, it seemed like a couple dozen.

    That was a game where the 2019 failing OL was on display. They had Brian Allen at center, and Noteboom and Blythe at guard (against Suh).

    from PFF, What went wrong for the Los Angeles Rams in 2019? https://www.pff.com/news/pro-rams-what-went-wrong-2019

    It’s hard to talk about what is at the root of the Rams’ offensive struggles this season and not begin with the offensive line. That unit went from fifth in PFF pass-blocking grade in 2018 to 31st in 2019, ahead of only the makeshift group that protects Ryan Fitzpatrick in Miami.

    The Rams’ continued investment in their offensive line helps his cause.”

    Humphries and Shelton?

    I guess so.

    I guess so.

    Maybe that was written before the bloodclots.gate? (?)

    Though maybe he likes Humphries?

    It is a bit of “not too discerning” “good speak,” because in fact Shelton was let go for Jackson, who never learned to play center, and then Limmer had communication issues in the Eagles playoff game, so it’s back to Shelton. I agree that that doesn’t honestly represent what we usually mean by “continued investment.”

    I think many of us expected them to draft one or two guys.

    If the Rams fall flat this year, I would think that will be the reason. OLine. As per usual.

    Quentin Lake was one of just three defenders in the entire NFL to play every single defensive snap through Week 17 last season. The Rams gave him a rest in Week 18 with the playoffs locked up.

    from PFF, 2025 NFL secondary rankings: https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-secondary-rankings-2025?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dhtwitter&utm_content=null

    18. Los Angeles Rams

    Most players in the Rams’ secondary had down years in 2024 after strong performances in 2023. Darious Williams, who posted one of the best seasons by any cornerback in 2023, struggled in his return to Los Angeles. Quentin Lake has graded well in PFF’s advanced coverage metrics over the past two seasons, while rookie Kamren Kinchens was the only player to earn an overall grade above 70.0 in 2024. If Williams bounces back and Cobie Durant and Kamren Curl show improvement, the Rams’ secondary could shape up to be a solid unit in 2025.

    On recent Rams UDFAs.

    ***

    from https://www.lafbnetwork.com/nfl/la-rams/la-rams-news/los-angeles-rams-track-record-developing-udfas/

    Since Sean McVay took over as head coach in 2017, the Los Angeles Rams have quietly become one of the NFL’s most consistent pipelines for undrafted talent.

    Alaric Jackson (OL, 2021 – Iowa)
    Jackson made the roster as a rookie and has since started 35 games, including every one in 2024. He’s played multiple spots on the offensive line and helped stabilize a unit that went through major injuries.

    Jackson re-signed with the Rams this offseason and is expected to continue starting at left tackle after returning from blood clots, likely in the winter.

    Omar Speights (LB, 2024 – LSU)
    Speights joined the Rams as an undrafted free agent in May 2024 and quickly earned a roster spot after turning heads throughout the preseason. He didn’t see defensive snaps until Week 8, but once thrust into action, he started the final 11 regular-season games and both playoff matchups.

    He finished the year with 67 tackles, 2 passes defended, and 419 defensive snaps, all while grading in the top third among LBs in run defense by PFF. His standout film work earned praise from coaches and landed him on PFF’s “All-Breakout Team” for 2024.

    Speights is now expected to compete for the starting linebacker spot in 2025, along with fellow UDFA Sean Dolac.
