The Facts: It's hard for quarterbacks to get injured during training camp, since they can't be hit. But they can still hit their hand against a helmet while throwing the ball. That's what Stafford did on Monday. Stafford left the field with his thumb wrapped. Said coach Sean McVay after practice, via Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News: "I don't know anything yet. I think he'll be OK."

Diehards Line: That's good news, if McVay actually knows anything. The fact that he admits he doesn't know anything makes it harder to accept the representation that he'll be OK. If Stafford misses time, the Rams won't be OK. Expectations are sky high in L.A. because of the arrival of Stafford (or maybe because of the departure of Jared Goff). If Stafford can't play all or most of the season, it will be harder to fulfill those expectations, especially in the most competitive division in the NFL.
