## Overview

The Los Angeles Rams sit at 2-4 and have lost two in a row, falling 16-18 to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6 after a 34-37 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 5. Before that stretch they beat the Philadelphia Eagles 24-20, lost 26-30 to the Denver Broncos, and beat the New York Giants 28-6. Los Angeles has scored 135 points and allowed 138 on the season.

The Las Vegas Raiders are 3-3 but arrive on a three-game skid, losing 30-33 to the Bills in Week 6, 17-45 to the New England Patriots in Week 5, and 27-30 to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4.

This game kicks off Sunday, October 25, 2026 at 4:25 PM ET at Allegiant Stadium, airing on Fox. The market has the Rams as 3.5-point favorites with a total of 48.5, and [Matthew Stafford](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/matthew-stafford) leads the NFL with 1,794 passing yards this season, giving Los Angeles the edge through the air even while dealing with a banged-up receiver room.

## Key players

Matthew Stafford completed 25 of 33 passes for 222 yards and 2 touchdowns with a 113.4 rating in Week 6, and he ranks first in the NFL with 1,794 passing yards this season; he's projected for 20.5 DraftKings points.

[Puka Nacua](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/puka-nacua) is questionable with a calf injury but caught 6 passes for 80 yards in Week 6 and has 350 receptions in 48 career games, the most receptions in a player's first 50 career games in NFL history; he's projected for 22.5 DraftKings points.

[Kyren Williams](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/kyren-williams) posted 67 scrimmage yards in Week 6 and has topped 75 scrimmage yards in four of his past five games; he carries a 17.5-point DraftKings projection.

[Kirk Cousins](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/kirk-cousins) threw for 313 yards and 2 touchdowns in Week 6 and is tied for first in the NFL with 14 touchdown passes this season, projected for 18.0 DraftKings points.

[Brock Bowers](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/brock-bowers) caught 4 passes for 70 yards last week and has at least 5 receptions with a receiving touchdown in four of his past five games; he's projected for 16.5 DraftKings points.

## Keys to the game

Keep Matthew Stafford upright behind a line where left tackle [Alaric Jackson](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/alaric-jackson) did not practice, with no game status announced yet; the Raiders' Maxx Crosby has a tackle for loss in 10 of his past 11 home games.

Ride the ground game through Kyren Williams and [Blake Corum](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/blake-corum), with Williams chasing a third straight road game of 140-plus scrimmage yards and Corum looking for a third straight game with 60-plus scrimmage yards and a touchdown.

Make Kirk Cousins work for it through the air, since he's tied for first in the league with 14 touchdown passes and has thrown one in 10 straight starts; the Rams secondary, led by Quentin Lake's interception and Kam Curl's eight tackles and a tackle for loss last week, needs to limit the big plays to Brock Bowers and [Tre Tucker](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/tre-tucker).

## Fantasy angles

Start Matthew Stafford with confidence; he's atop the NFL in passing yards this season and carries a 20.5-point projection.

Puka Nacua is a questionable with a calf injury, but his 22.5-point projection and six-catch, 80-yard Week 6 line make him worth starting if he's cleared.

Kyren Williams is a solid RB1 play here at 17.5 projected points, especially with his recent run of 75-plus scrimmage yards in four of his last five games.

[Davante Adams](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/davante-adams) slots in as a flex option at 14.5 projected points behind the Rams' top two targets.

[Blake Grupe](https://profootballnewshub.com/nfl/players/blake-grupe) is a low-end streamer at 7.5 projected points and shouldn't be a priority add outside of deep kicker needs.

## Prediction

The betting market projects a 26-23 final in favor of the Los Angeles Rams, and that lines up with what's in front of us: Stafford's league-leading passing numbers against a Raiders defense that's allowed points in bunches during its three-game slide, with the Rams' ground attack from Williams and Corum controlling enough of the clock to hold off a Las Vegas offense that can still move the ball through Cousins and Bowers.
