Stafford Rewrote Rams History While the Raiders Got Run Over at Home

The Los Angeles Rams (3-4) snapped a two-game losing streak with a 35-21 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders (3-4) at Allegiant Stadium on October 25, 2026, as Matthew Stafford became the first quarterback to hold the career touchdown-pass record for two NFL franchises while Los Angeles overwhelmed Las Vegas with 199 rushing yards.

Matthew Stafford arrived in Las Vegas needing a victory and left with another piece of NFL history. Despite missing former Raiders receiver Davante Adams and having Puka Nacua battle a calf injury, Stafford connected with Davis Allen for two early touchdowns before finding Nacua for an 11-yard score. That third touchdown was Stafford’s 155th with the Rams, passing Roman Gabriel for the franchise record and making him the first quarterback to lead two NFL franchises in career touchdown passes. Kyren Williams added a 17-yard rushing touchdown as Los Angeles built a commanding 28-6 halftime lead. Stafford finished with 195 passing yards and three touchdowns, while Nacua caught eight passes for 68 yards. Williams rushed for 99 yards, and Blake Corum added 93 and a touchdown as the Rams overwhelmed Las Vegas with 199 rushing yards.

Las Vegas made things interesting in the fourth quarter, but its miserable first half left too much damage to repair. Kirk Cousins threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns, finding Tre Tucker for a 37-yard score before connecting with Ashton Jeanty to cut the deficit to 28-18. Tucker finished with 103 receiving yards, Brock Bowers added 73, and Jeanty contributed 61 through the air. However, Jeanty managed just 15 rushing yards on eight carries, while the Raiders totaled an embarrassing 48 yards on the ground. Nakobe Dean intercepted Stafford, and Jeremy Chinn recovered a Williams fumble, but Las Vegas couldn’t capitalize enough on either mistake. Corum’s fourth-quarter touchdown restored a comfortable advantage as the Raiders converted just three of 14 third downs. After opening the season 3-0, Klint Kubiak’s team has now lost four straight, with its inability to stop the run becoming impossible to ignore.
