The Los Angeles Rams continue to say every game is a barometer, but Sunday's contest might be their toughest yet

Stafford ranks fifth in passing yards and passer rating among starting QBs entering “Monday Night Football” between the Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys. He leads the NFL in TD passes, while his interception rate is the third-best among qualifying QBs.

Matthew Stafford passed for 281 yards and four touchdown passes as the Rams picked up their sixth win of the season in a 34-10 victory over the Saints.

The Saints have been reminded of that throughout their 1-8 season, from being humiliated in Seattle to embarrassed in Chicago to bullied in California. New Orleans has managed to be competitive in more than half of its games, though that fight can take a team only so far.

Pro Football Focus graded every player in the game, and it was Puka Nacua leading the way for Los Angeles in his return from injury. Terrance Ferguson and Matthew Stafford were also among the top performers. Here's a look at the best and worst players from Week 9 (min. 10 snaps).

The Rams had the Saints scared to look, scared to breathe. From the opening drive to the final whistle, it was a lesson in total, unrelenting domination. The epitome of shook.

The Rams had a massive advantage in time of possession, including holding the ball for nearly 14 minutes in the third quarter.

When the Rams selected Ferguson, they made the decision to pass up on several other top tight ends in the class, believing Ferguson was their man. It was a decision that many weighed in on. Sports Illustrated's Gilberto Manzano gave the Rams an C+ grade for the pick.
