Matthew Stafford turned in one of his best performances of the season on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, leading the Los Angeles Rams to a 30-27 win in the divisional round. He completed 28 of 38 passes for 366 yards with two touchdowns and no turnovers, completing a 44-yard pass to Cooper Kupp in the final seconds to set up the game-winning field goal by Matt Gay.
Kurt Warner has been breaking down Stafford’s game all season, both the good and the bad. Coming out of Sunday’s playoff win, Warner is high on the Rams quarterback and loves the way he played.
After watching Stafford play a near-perfect game against the Cardinals, Warner saw another great performance by the quarterback in Tampa Bay.
“Then he comes back against Tampa, really good defense, and plays lights out once again with big play after big play,” Warner said. “If it wasn’t for some mistakes by his teammates, he probably blows away Tom Brady in that game. It was a lot closer than it should’ve been, but with it being close, it allowed Matthew Stafford to make some of those really special plays that caught our eye.”
