Stetson Bennett opened 2025 with a strong Rams debut, guiding five scoring drives and tossing two fourth‑quarter TD passes in a 31‑21 win over Dallas. He finished 16 of 24 for 188 yards, showing command of Sean McVay’s offense and delivering accuracy at multiple levels, including a critical fourth‑down completion to Xavier Smith that set up Blake Corum’s early rushing scores. An interception in the third quarter loomed, but was magnified more by Israel Mukuamu’s ball skills than by Bennett’s decision. The night was a confidence boost, both for Bennett and Los Angeles, as the Rams balanced the run with play‑action and timing throws. It’s tape that Rams brass will study intently as they map out Bennett’s future beyond 2025, and it provides fantasy managers with a clearer read on the Rams’ offense and its target distribution.

Corum started the scoring spree with two early rushing TDs, giving Bennett easy first reads and opening the field for play‑action to his receivers. Schrader finished a late drive with a nine‑yard TD, Presley added a fourth‑quarter score, and Xavier Smith flashed at multiple levels, helping Bennett attack both the middle and the edges. The Rams’ balance around this QB‑centric sequence is promising for fantasy, especially if multiple pass‑catchers maintain involvement. Bennett’s comfort in McVay’s system and the group’s versatility suggest a favorable ceiling for Week 2 and beyond, even as competition and game plan evolve into 2026 discussions.
