ESPN NEWS FLASH: Rams coach Sean McVay drops a heart warming and encouraging message to his former QB after the playoff loss says he is the only quarterback he would want on his team

Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams had a special homecoming circumstance on Sunday night as he made his first trip back to Detroit to play the Lions since being dealt to the Rams prior to the 2021 NFL season. In contrast to Stafford’s celebration of homecoming, Jared Goff’s, who was acquired for Stafford practically as a throw-in, was less well-known as he made his first-ever appearance against his former team and head coach. Following the victory—the Lions’ first postseason triumph since 1991—Sean McVay expressed his high regard for both quarterbacks.

According to Michigan Live’s Kory Woods, Sean McVay declared, “I thought they were excellent.” “Jared worked incredibly well. You are able to observe his order. Though I believe it’s overblown, I’m genuinely thrilled for him. Although we obviously wanted to win, he performed admirably. I’m glad for Jared and grateful for our four years together because of his tenacity, fortitude, and the manner in which he’s carried out his work over the past three years.
Jared Goff completed the game with a 22-for-27 completion percentage, 277 yards, and a score. Even more impressive stats were posted by former Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford in the 24-23 loss to Detroit: 25-for-36, 367 yards, and two touchdowns.

“Matt Stafford is the only quarterback I would want on our team,” McVay said. He was exceptional; he had guts, grit, and made throw after challenging throw. The rush was coming at him at full speed. We just barely missed the red region by a small margin, despite the fact that he stood there dropping dimes all day. But he did give us a chance, and without Matthew Stafford’s leadership, wisdom, and fortitude, we never would have found ourselves in this predicament.
Even though the Rams season has ended, it was much more successful than anyone could have predicted at the beginning of the season. Despite the fact that many predicted the Rams to be among the weakest teams in the league, Sean McVay did an incredible job as coach, sending Los Angeles to the postseason for the sixth time in seven years.
Detroit will now move on and host the winner of Tampa Bay vs. Philadelphia on Monday night next Sunday, with a chance to make the NFC Championship Game for just the second time in the team’s history.
