When Matthew Stafford found Cooper Kupp for the game-winning touchdown with 1:25 left in Super Bowl LVI, he joined an exclusive fraternity of quarterbacks who have thrown at least three touchdown passes in a single Super Bowl. When Kupp, who caught two of those TD passes, was named the game’s MVP, it put Stafford in a class by himself.
Stafford is the only quarterback in Super Bowl history to throw at least three TD passes for the winning team and not be named the game’s MVP.
Stafford, who completed 26 of 40 passes for 283 yards and three scores, became the 17th player in NFL history to throw at least three touchdowns passes in a Super Bowl. Tom Brady has accomplished the feat four times and Joe Montana has done it twice.
