Matthew Stafford received the NFL MVP in the closest vote in 22 years on Thursday, and he and his team did not make it to Super Bowl LX. Stafford also revealed that his career with the Los Angeles Rams will remain, making it one of his most memorable night.

In a two-way contest, Stafford received 24 first-place vote from a panel of 50 votes, bringing in a total of 366 items, while Drake Maye, the young player for the New England Patriots, received 23 first-place vote and 361 factors. It is the closest ballot since 2003.

Stafford has long been regarded as one of the league's top pitchers, but he has never been a real MVP candidate. In addition to his four-year Super Bowl band as the Rams ' player, he then has one.

Matthew Stafford will have the most joyful day, in my opinion.

Stafford, who turns 38 this Saturday, had 4 707 yards and 46 touchdowns for the NFL's No. 1 act in 2015. He merely attempted 8 interception. The Rams were one of the best squads of the year, but they were ultimately defeated by Seattle in a battle for the NFC title.

The player praised his friends, his coach Sean McVay, who he called a dear friend and the best leader he's ever had, and the whole Rams organization for the award with his characteristic sincerity. In front of many of the NFL's top people, both past and present, he also said," It's incredible to me to breathe the same air as you people. "

Due to the fact that she and her New England friends are getting ready for the Super Bowl this Sunday against Seattle, Maye did not attend the NFL Honors service held at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco.

Stafford's motivation to continue is the assistance of his sons.

Stafford took the stage with his four young girls, who were very manifest at Rams games this year, shortly after learning that he had won the NFL's most cherished personal honor. You people have been fantastic girls for me. I appreciate it. At the conclusion of his speech, Stafford said," I'm so glad you're having fun with me and I didn't wait for you to clap me on when we're out there kicking ass," putting an end to the suspense about his prospect. Coach McVay, wide receiver Puka Nacua, running back Kyren Williams, and another Rams players in the theatre were moved by the news that Stafford would play for the entire 18th NFL season in 2026. The Los Angeles staff will be one of the biggest bettors, if not the biggest, to get Super Bowl LXI, which will also take place at SoFi Stadium, their home facility. Stafford explained to reporters that it was a family decision based on his sons when he explained his motives for announcing that he would not but retire from football. If they didn't support me playing, I wouldn't do it, Stafford said," I want to be a part of their lives as much as I can, that's really important to me, and that's why I want to be a part of their lives," he continued. It's clear that I enjoy playing, but if they weren't with me on that choice, it doesn't matter how well I played this year, last year, or whatever. The Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was named the team's offensive player of the year, Browns defensive end Myles Garrett was named the team's defensive player of the year (unanimous ), Christian McCaffrey the 49ers ' Comeback Player of the Year, and Mike Vrabel, the Patriots ' head coach, named the team's coach of the year. I wouldn't play if they didn't, Stafford continued. It's undisputed that I love to play, but if they weren't with me on that decision, it doesn't matter how well I played this year, last year, or whatever. In addition to the honors, the NFL honored Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba received Browns defensive end Myles Garrett received Browns defensive player of the year (unanimous ), 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey received Comeback Player of the Year, and Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel received Coach of the Year.
