The Los Angeles Rams lost to the Green Bay Packers 36-28 Sunday. It had been reported earlier Sunday that Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has been dealing with injuries to all different parts of his body. Yet, Stafford was not listed on the team's final injury report.
Stafford, despite throwing for three touchdowns Sunday, did not look like himself. He missed a bunch of seemingly easy throws, and showed almost no mobility in the pocket. After the loss, Rams head coach Sean McVay addressed the injury concern to the media.

While responding, McVay recognized how difficult it has been for his quarterback.
“I'll let him answer that… he's a tough guy battling.”
Also during the post game press conference, McVay talked about the team's struggles and provided some insight as to what went wrong in the loss. McVay pointed to the same mistakes the team continues to make and that is turnovers.
The Rams turned the ball over three more times Sunday, with Matthew Stafford once again throwing an interception returned for a touchdown. He also fumbled on a strip sack that the Packers recovered.
Stafford and the Rams have now lost three straight games, dropping to 7-4 on the season. They are two full games behind the Arizona Cardinals for the NFC West lead and suddenly are only a game ahead of the surging San Francisco 49ers.
After a game against the lowly Jacksonville Jaguars next week, the Rams face one of the toughest schedules remaining. They close the season with games against the Cardinals, Ravens and 49ers.
