Matthew Stafford was close to flawless, the Los Angeles defense forced two turnovers, and Tampa Bay never climbed out of a 21-0 hole. The Rams beat the Buccaneers 34-7 in their Week 12 meeting on November 23, 2025, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Stafford completed 25 of 35 passes for 273 yards and three touchdowns without an interception, and cornerback Cobie Durant returned one of Baker Mayfield’s two picks 50 yards for a score.
The team numbers tell an unusual story for a 27-point win. Tampa Bay ran 12 more plays than Los Angeles, out-rushed the Rams 123 yards to 70, and held the ball for nearly 32 minutes. None of it counted for much. The Buccaneers managed 193 total yards, gave the ball away twice, and walked off with a third straight loss. Here is the complete Rams vs Buccaneers box score, category by category.

Tampa Bay recorded no interceptions. Durant’s pick-six came after he stripped the ball from a juggling Cade Otton, and Forbes intercepted Mayfield’s heave on the final play of the first half. Graham Barton fumbled once for the Buccaneers, but Tampa Bay recovered it and lost no possessions on the ground.

What the box score shows
Stafford finished with a passer rating of 122.7 and the cleanest line on the field. Puka Nacua led all receivers with 97 yards on seven catches, Davante Adams caught two touchdown passes, and Harrison Mevis made kicks of 40 and 52 yards in his first game for Los Angeles. The Rams scored on each of their first three drives and added a defensive touchdown, and they never trailed.
Tampa Bay ran the ball well and held Los Angeles to 70 rushing yards, but the passing game never got going and the turnovers were fatal. Mayfield left in the second half with a sprained left shoulder, later graded on an MRI as a low-grade AC joint sprain with no further damage, and Teddy Bridgewater finished the night. The win moved the Rams to 9-2. The loss dropped the Buccaneers to 6-5. Los Angeles ran fewer plays and gained fewer yards on the ground, then won by 27. Tampa Bay lost this one where games are usually settled, in the turnover column.

Born and raised in New York, she spent years covering professional sports across multiple leagues before launching this publication in April 2026, largely out of frustration with a sports media industry that had decided moving fast mattered more than being right. Her reporting covers the NFL, NBA, MLB, cricket, and international football, and every figure published under her byline is verified against official data before the piece moves. She started The Press Row because she believed readers who actually understood the game deserved a publication built to the same standard. That standard has not changed since day one, and it applies to every writer on staff.
