Matthew Stafford and the Rams are one game away from the Super Bowl.
The Buccaneers tied their NFC divisional round game against the Rams 27-27 with under a minute to play, and that’s when Stafford went to work. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
The former Detroit Lions superstar bombed the ball deep to Cooper Kupp and spiked it with just seconds remaining.
STAFFORD FINDS COOPER KUPP. UNBELIEVABLE.

The Rams then rushed their field goal unit out there and kicked the game winner to advance to the NFC championship.
RAMS WIN. WHAT A FOOTBALL GAME.

What an absolutely awesome game for Stafford. The Rams did everything they could to throw the game away, but Stafford simply refused to lose.

He threw for 322 yards, had three total touchdowns and he’s now one win away from the Super Bowl. As a football fan and a supporter of the Lions, I couldn’t be happier.
It’s about damn time the rest of the world realized just how great Stafford is as a quarterback.
Matthew Stafford is one of the most under-appreciated QBs in NFL history.
Gutsy as all hell. As a Lions fan, I’m glad the rest of the country is finally getting to see how awesome he is as a player.
