Bears vs. Rams live score, updates, highlights from NFL Sunday Night Football game

Neither Matt Stafford nor Andy Dalton has had much success in the playoffs over the past decade.

Now, after a change of scenery for both, the quarterbacks are hoping for a reversal of fortune.

Stafford was traded to a young, dynamic Rams team this offseason for Jared Goff, while Dalton signed with the Bears after filling in nicely for an injured Dak Prescott with the Cowboys last season.

FANTASY: Is Darnell Mooney playing Sunday night?

There was no doubt Stafford would start for the Rams, whose offense has good individual players such as Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods and Tyler Higbee but has been pedestrian overall. Still, the Rams won 10 games a year ago, something Stafford hasn’t done since 2014.

Dalton, however, was a question mark to start after the Bears took Ohio State standout Justin Fields 11th overall in this year’s NFL Draft.

But after two preseason games, Bears coach Matt Nagy named Dalton the starter over Fields, a move to which Bears fans didn’t take kindly.
