“Matthew Stafford has a lot of experience”: Steve Mariucci feels Stafford has better chance of winning
Expert analysts have favored Los Angeles Rams to win against Arizona. Former NFL Head Coach turned Analysts, Steve Mariucci was asked which quarterback he trusted to win the game — Matthew Stafford or Kyler Murray. “I trust Matthew Stafford more!”, said Mariucci. “Both these guys are No.1 picks in the draft and neither guy has won a playoff game.”
Steve said, “I love Kyler Murray too, he’s gonna make plays with his legs and his arms bt you know what, Matthew Stafford had 41 touchdown passes this year second to only Tom Brady and this guy has got experience, he’s got his go-to receiver — Cooper Kupp.”
Matthew Stafford’s consistency will guarantee a Rams’ win
Rams QB Matthew Stafford has been consistent throughout the season. He has delivered week in and week out for the Rams. Stafford and his go-to receiver, Cooper Kupp have created magic this year. Stafford has a passer rating of 127.7 targeting Cooper Kupp which is the highest by any QB-WR duo (min 100 targets). Due to this consistency, Steve said that Matthew Stafford has a better chance of winning the game.
On the other hand, Cardinals QB, Kyler Murray’s has been nothing short of a rollercoaster. Murray started the season with 7-0 and it looked like the Cardinals were invincible. But Murray could not maintain this same pace and they lost 4 of their last 5 games. Murray’s mercurial performance is the reason why experts believe that he won’t lead the Cardinals to a victory in the Wild Card game.
