Was the no look throw to Kupp one of the best throws in Super Bowl history? Maybe im still high and delirious who knows? But damn what a freaking throw.

No, you're not overreacting. That throw is going to be on Stafford's HOF video, an incredible pass that was a clutch play in the biggest moment.

One of the best ever for sure.

Maybe the best ever. Von Bell picks it off if he doesn't no look.

And let's be real....if Mahomes made that throw, they'd be talking about it as the GOAT pass and everyone in the media would have a permanent erection

Me too man it's terrible. Hopefully he resigns and takes his time getting healthy. As long as hes 100% for the playoffs. Im sure Rob and Kupp will help support and keep him motivated and positive.

Give him a 2-3 year deal. First year less and then goes up!

I’ve watched this throw like 500 times today and I still can’t get over it.

The only passes in recent postseason history that compare are Eli Manning’s ball to Manningham on the sideline vs NE in the Super Bowl, and *maybe* Big Ben’s ball in the corner to Santonio Holmes to beat Arizona in the Super Bowl in the waning seconds.

But this throw from Stafford has pretty much never been done before.

We need a statue at SOFI of that moment and call it "The No Look Pass". That was our Ricky Proehl moment but in a more significant game.

It's nothing new. Back in the 90's some GMs would draft OTs with OG traits, i.e. shorter like 6'5". They normally had longer arms than most OGs and generally were more athletic and with better feet. They would redshirt them one year building them up physically, and coaching them up on the technique differences. Generally however, if they wanted to run a power scheme they would do so with a road grader type of FB as a lead blocker otherwise they were just fine if they ran a zone blocking scheme.

If McVay doesn't want to have a FB he should stick to zone blocking schemes, inside and outside. But we all saw the limitations of those run blocking schemes which is why they transitioned to a more gap blocking scheme. Now McVay wants to run an inside power scheme because it lends itself better to play action. But because his OL is built of OT type players they lack the road grading OGs to do it consistently. Ergo he needs to take a page from the old offensive playbooks and use a FB instead of a wham blocking WR or TE.

This is why for two years I've been saying McVay needs to decide what kind of run attack does he want to run. The problem with zone blocked schemes they are less effective in short yardage where the box is stacked. Which is why the Niners use a FB. They will run it down your throat until you stack the box. Then they will play action and pass it over that stacked box.

Absolutely agree with this - one of the 9ers strength is using Juszczyk in that role
