Eighteen years after he was one of the state’s greatest high school quarterbacks, the Rams star cherishes Sunday’s homecoming versus the Cowboys
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford #9 changes the play at the line against the Arizona Cardinals in the first half of the game in Inglewood on Sunday, Oct. 15, 2023. THOUSAND OAKS — It used to be that when Matthew Stafford played a game in Dallas, the city paused to take notice.
“My first impression was the way the ball spun off his hand. Just the velocity he was able to throw,” said Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, who at the time led the Lions’ divisional rivals, the Green Bay Packers. “You see a quarterback throw in a dome, it’s always the best environment for those guys to throw the ball. But then you watch him throw the ball in Lambeau Field in December, you have a different opinion of him.
That was also the first year that Stafford played the Cowboys in Dallas-Fort Worth. After growing up a fan of the 1990s dynasty, watching Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin light the city up alongside his childhood friends, Stafford was back in his hometown. Since then, Stafford has gone to a Pro Bowl, set a couple of NFL records and, most notably, won a Super Bowl after being traded to the Rams in 2021. Now in his 15th season, Stafford has continued to push himself, using his knowledge of the league’s coordinators, schemes and players to streamline his process.
