Stafford explained his celebration after the game, saying he didn't plan it and went with whatever came to his mind after the touchdown.

"I mean, I was having a good time," Stafford said. "I got hit on that one pretty good, so I had to shake that one off a little bit, but no, I don't know man, like I said, I just have fun out there. I lose my mind when we score touchdowns, I don't think about it.

"A lot of these guys are in the locker room, pregame prepping what kind of dance they're going to do with they score a touchdown. I just go out there and play and whatever comes to me comes to me."

Earlier this year in April, Stafford and Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua hung out with Steph Curry during LAFC's Concacaf Champions Cup game against Inter Miami.

Matthew Stafford's Rams teammate starts MVP talks for veteran quarterback

Matthew Stafford had a strong showing against San Francisco on Sunday as the veteran quarterback threw for 280 yards with four touchdowns. His performances has started MVP talks from Rams teammate Davante Adams.

"It's looked like MVP play to me all year, to be honest," Adams said. "I mean, even certain games... the pick he threw against Tennessee and the way he bounced back after that; that's how an MVP plays, to me. Just to rally a team and continue to lead at a high level after things don't go your way, I think that's what really shows what an MVP is about."

Stafford became the first player in NFL history to throw 20 touchdowns without an interception in a six-game stretch with the Rams going 5-1 in those games.
