Matthew Stafford Passes Dan Marino to Reach No. 9 All-Time as Rams Beat Ravens

His season-leading pace puts more rungs within reach on the leaderboard, renewing discussion of his Hall of Fame résumé.

Overview

  • Stafford moved to 61,493 career passing yards, surpassing Dan Marino’s 61,361 to take ninth on the NFL’s all-time list.
  • He threw for 181 yards and a touchdown in a 17-3 victory over the Ravens, pushing the Rams to a 4-2 start.
  • Through six games, he leads the NFL with 1,684 passing yards to go with 12 touchdowns, two interceptions and roughly 66.5% completion.
  • Projections suggest he could pass Matt Ryan next and possibly challenge Philip Rivers later this season if his current pace holds.
  • The 37-year-old expressed reverence for Marino after the milestone, and the Rams now head to London to face the Jaguars in Week 7.
