Shannon Sharpe believed that Matthew Stafford has cemented his place in the NFL Hall of Fame following the Super Bowl triumph.
The Los Angeles Rams, led by quarterback Matthew Stafford, won the Super Bowl last season. They did this by beating the Cincinnati Bengals in a very close game. The Rams won the Super Bowl because their best players stepped up when it mattered the most.
Matthew Stafford was a big reason why the Rams won the Super Bowl. Along with OBJ and Cooper Kupp, he made a lot of big plays that put the Rams on track to reach their ultimate goal.
Matthew Stafford had shown those who thought he couldn’t do the job at the Los Angeles Rams that they were wrong. He led them to a Super Bowl win in his first season with the Rams after being traded from the Lions. This has made it more likely that he will get into the Hall of Fame.
NFL Hall of Famer, Shannon Sharpe also believed that Stafford has made a strong argument about being in the Hall of Fame. He said, “When it’s all said and done, his numbers are going to speak up for themselves.”
Shannon Sharpe later made the argument that Stafford’s career isn’t over yet. He still has a lot of years left in his tank, due to which he will solidify his case even further to make the Hall of Fame.
Speaking about it, Sharpe had said, “Matthew Stafford still has got years to play, he is still 34 and he is going to be top 5 in yards, top 5 in touchdowns which definitely helps his case.”
He added, “There have been guys that don’t have a championship and are still in the hall of fame, So When it’s all said and done, his numbers are going to speak up for themselves and It’s going to be very hard to keep him out of the Hall of Fame.”
Shannon Sharpe is certainly right. Stafford is in the perfect situation with many great players around him. Due to it, it’s very likely that he will exceed more expectations in the coming years.
The Los Angeles Rams arguably have the best roster in the NFL. They lost Von Miller in the offseason but brought in Bobby Wagner to replace him.
The rest of their key starters are still on the team. It’s very likely that OBJ will also be signed by the Rams once he is cleared to play by the doctors. Due to it, the Rams have a great chance of repeating as Super Bowl champions.
Their star players like Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp, Matthew Stafford, and Jalen Ramsey aren’t going anywhere. These many star players under the coaching of Sean McVay are more than capable of defeating any team in the league. As a result, it won’t be a surprise if we see the Lombardi Trophy staying in Los Angeles.
