Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford explained what it's like to be outnumbered by opposing fans during a home game.
It's become a regular occurrence that other West Coast fanbases -- the San Francisco 49ers and Las Vegas Raiders, among others -- will infiltrate SoFi Stadium and make it a hostile environment during what are supposed to be home games for the Rams. Heck, even Philadelphia Eagles fans did it last week, despite Lincoln Financial Field being 2,733 miles away.
“Doesn't bother me per se, but it's definitely easier when I can go on my own cadence at our home games and be able to dictate the tempo a little bit better, but it is what it is," Stafford said. Perhaps there will be more Rams fans at SoFi Stadium in Week 6, as Los Angeles hosts the Arizona Cardinals. But in Week 7, the Pittsburgh Steelers come to town, and you can guarantee that more than half of the crowd will have Terrible Towels with them, likely forcing Stafford and company to resort to using the silent count.
