Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford stayed classy as ever in defeat after his team’s loss to the Seahawks in the NFC championship game on Sunday. He told his ex-teammate-turned-opponent in Cooper Kupp that he hoped Kupp would win it all and stuck around to shake several Seahawks players’ hands following the final whistle.
On one of his worst days of his career, having fallen painfully short of what might be his last good chance to win another Super Bowl, Stafford remained composed and didn’t show a very emotional or personal side of himself. He would save that for later, when he flew home from Seattle and shared a special moment with his kids mere hours after the 31-27 loss.
