Rams quarterback puts his inefficient game behind him as he focuses on Colts.
MATTHEW STAFFORD struggled against the Eagles but still positioned the Rams to have a chance at a win.

No reset necessary. No reason to make more of some rare misfires.
After 16-plus seasons, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford knows how to put less-than-efficient performances behind him.
So the passes he missed in last Sunday's defeat by the Philadelphia Eagles are not cause for concern as he prepares for Sunday's game against the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts at SoFi Stadium.
"It happens," Stafford said Wednesday before practice. "I'm not too worried about it."
Stafford completed 19 of 33 passes (57.6%) for 198 yards and two touchdowns with an interception. Despite missing on some passes he usually completes, he finished the game by directing a two-minute drive that positioned the Rams to win the game. The Eagles blocked a last-second field-goal attempt and returned it for a touchdown.
Stafford compared a rare off day to those sometimes experienced by NBA players.
