Tom Brady had a positive outlook for Matthew Stafford following the Los Angeles Rams' 42-26 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday afternoon.
Stafford continues to shine as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, even at age 37. While his athleticism has declined over time, his throwing ability continues to age gracefully as one of the best passers this season. It also helps that he has star receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams among others to throw the ball to, propping up his numbers even more.
This was no different when he took on the 49ers' defense. He torched them throughout the day, throwing for 280 yards and four touchdowns on 24 completions.
Brady reacted to Stafford's performance after the game on the FOX broadcast. He named Stafford as his Player of the Game, making a playful joke about the quarterback's age as he looks forward to seeing him continue to play in the NFL. Stafford took the joke in lighthearted fashion, as one should.
“You're only 37, you got at least another 8 years to play so, I can't wait to watch all of them,” Brady said.
