Count Kurt Warner in among the people who had their jaws drop after seeing Matthew Stafford's ridiculous no-look throw to Cooper Kupp in Super Bowl 56 between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals.
During the game-winning drive in the fourth quarter, Stafford found Kupp for a 22-yard gain in Bengals territory. While it was already clutch in its own right, a slow-motion replay of the throw showed the Rams QB not looking at his wide receiver at all.
After Warner saw the clip, he couldn't help but be jealous of the skill that Stafford showed. It's truly a work of art and beauty at its finest:
“I seldom find myself envious of another person’s success (bc I am beyond blessed), but man I’m often times envious (in a good way ppl) of another person’s skills… this is a work of art, using body & eyes to manipulate defenders & then a dime in a critical moment… SO BEAUTIFUL!” the St. Louis Rams legend wrote on Twitter alongside the clip of the play.
As mentioned, Kurt Warner is just one of many others who found the play simply incredible. For what it's worth, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was left speechless after seeing it as well, tweeting just three Flushed Face emojis to show his amazement:

We can't blame Warner and Mahomes for their reactions, though. Anyone who sees that thing of beauty from Matthew Stafford will probably have the same reaction, and it will definitely go down as one of the best plays of the game, if not the best.
