Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford achieved a remarkable feat in the NFL during a game against the Carolina Panthers on November 30, 2025. Early in the first quarter, Stafford connected with wide receiver Davante Adams for a 4-yard touchdown pass on the Rams’ opening drive, marking his 28th consecutive touchdown pass without an interception. This achievement broke a long-standing record previously held by Tom Brady.
Matthew Stafford’s Historic Touchdown Record
Stafford exhibited precision, completing 4 out of 5 passes during the six-play, 35-yard drive. He notably targeted players Adams, Puka Nacua, and Colby Parkinson. However, his streak was interrupted on the Rams’ second drive when Panthers defensive back Nick Scott intercepted a pass intended for Adams in the end zone. Shortly thereafter, Stafford threw another interception to Mike Jackson Sr., who returned it for a touchdown.
Current Season Performance
Heading into this game, Stafford was a frontrunner for the NFL MVP, leading the league with 30 touchdown passes and only two interceptions. His performance puts him alongside Patrick Mahomes as one of the few players in NFL history to achieve at least 30 touchdown passes with two or fewer interceptions by Week 13.

Looking Ahead
With a season record of 9-2, the Rams aimed for their 10th victory to secure their position in the NFC. Stafford had additional milestones within reach, including potentially becoming the third player in NFL history to complete nine consecutive games with at least 25 pass attempts and no interceptions. Additionally, he could be the fourth player with multiple touchdown passes in six straight games without an interception.
Stafford’s record-breaking moment solidifies his status not only as a team leader but also as a pivotal player in NFL history. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how he continues to perform in the weeks to come.
