Every Los Angeles Rams starting QB ever: Full list

The Los Angeles Rams have a lengthy history dating back to the 1930s when they were the Cleveland Rams. After spending under a decade in Cleveland, the Rams relocated to Los Angeles in the 1940s where they stayed until the mid-1990s. From there, the Rams spent 10 years in St. Louis before moving back to Los Angeles in 2016.

During their storied history, the Rams have had plenty of guys serving as quarterback for the team. Younger fans might only know of Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford and Kurt Warner from the Greatest Show on Turf but the Rams have had plenty of talented quarterbacks such as Bob Waterfield, Norm Van Brocklin, Roman Gabriel, and Jim Everett.

Let's dive through every decade of quarterbacks for the Rams.

The Rams had nine different starting signal-callers in the 1970s and while there are some big names here, funny enough, those big names weren't superstars while they were donning the blue and yellow. Roman Gabriel kicked the decade off as the starter and the Rams had three other quarterbacks start double-digit games for the team in the 70s.

Pat Haden started the most games for the Rams in the 70s with 43 starts under his belt. He also made five playoff starts for the Rams

Kurt Warner joined the team in 1998 and led the team to a Super Bowl title in the 1999 season.

Rams starting quarterbacks from 2000 to 2009

Trent Green was on the Rams roster in the 90s but he never started a game for them, which worked out well for the organization considering how good Kurt Warner ended up being. Some other notable names here include Marc Bulger, who started 95 games and three playoff games for the Rams and Ryan Fitzpatrick, who kicked off his lengthy NFL career with the Rams.

Rams starting quarterbacks from 2010 to 2019

Name (Time spent with Rams)	Starts this decade (Career starts with Rams)	Playoff starts this decade (Career playoff starts with Rams)

Sean Mannion (2015-2018)	1 (1)	0 (0)

The Rams owned the number one overall pick twice during the 2010s. The first time around came at the start of the decade and they spent that first pick on Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford, who spent four seasons with St. Louis. Bradford had a nice rookie year but couldn't stay healthy, eventually paving the way for them to go in another direction.

While the Rams weren't the worst team in the league in 2015, the franchise was relocating from St. Louis to Los Angeles beginning in 2016 so the organization swung for the fences. The Rams moved to the top pick in the 2016 draft and took California's Jared Goff, who helped lead the team to a Super Bowl appearance in the 2018 season.

Rams starting quarterbacks from 2020 to Present

Name (Time spent with Rams)	Starts this decade (Career starts with Rams)	Playoff starts this decade (Career playoff starts with Rams)
Jared Goff (2016-2020)	15 (69)	1 (5)
John Wolford (2020-2022)	4 (4)	1 (1)
Matthew Stafford (2021-Present)	41 (41)	5 (5)
Baker Mayfield (2022)	4 (4)	0 (0)
Bryce Perkins (2022)	1 (1)	0 (0)
Brett Rypien (2023)	1 (1)	0 (0)
Carson Wentz (2023)	1 (1)	0 (0)

Following the 2020 season, the Rams decided to go in another direction at quarterback. They swapped quarterbacks with the Lions, bringing Matthew Stafford to Los Angeles in the hopes of securing a Super Bowl title while the roster was still stacked.

Stafford delivered on that promise, winning a Super Bowl with the Rams in his first year with the team. The team had a Super Bowl hangover in 2022 that led to Baker Mayfield and Bryce Perkins having to start five games. Stafford also missed some time in 2023, which paved the way for Brett Rypien and Carson Wentz to start two games.
