Have injuries taken away from Rams' current 3-game winning streak?

The recent narratives surrounding the Los Angeles Rams have been grim, despite the fact that the team is in the midst of a three-game winning streak. The issue that has kept the fan base from feeling happy is the plethora of injuries.

Even though the team finally got Myles Garrett back, the Rams are entering the week unsure of who will be on the field against the Arizona Cardinals, as their injury report is littered with superstars.

On top of Trent McDuffie, Kam Curl and Terrance Ferguson all being banged up to different degrees, Davante Adams, Kobie Turner, Jordan Whittington, and others have had to go on injured reserve, while Poona Ford and Jaylen Watson have been lost for the season.

Due to all the bad injury news, quarterback Matthew Stafford was asked if it feels like the team is on a winning streak. Stafford spoke to the vibes of the team, the effect the injuries have had on morale, and how a unified focus on winning helps Los Angeles get through times like these.

“Obviously, there have been a lot of people in and out, [which] sometimes takes that major joy out of a win sometimes," said Stafford. "You're like, 'Man, we just won, but we lost Puka for a little bit of time,' or we lost 'Ferg.' Some of those things, you ride the roller coaster a little bit of an NFL season. Try to be just as stable as you possibly can and understand that those things are going to happen. That's part of it. Then I think, frankly, there are opportunities for us to play better a little bit as well.

"Listen, the end game is to win the football game. We've done that three weeks in a row, looking to try and do that four times. The rest, to be honest with you, doesn't really matter because we scored a bunch of points in certain games and didn't win or held the other team's offense to very few points and didn't win. The name of the game is winning the football game. We're going to have to play as a team as good, if not better, than we have all season, and I'm looking forward to that challenge.”

The Rams travel to take on the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday, a team that beat them 18-16 in Week 6, which was Los Angeles' most recent defeat. Following this weekend's game, the team will have its bye before taking on the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Eve.

The Rams hope some of their injured players will be ready to go after the Thanksgiving holiday.
