ATLANTA -- Jared Goff trudged to the Los Angeles Rams' bench, his face a mask of confusion and despair while the Patriots celebrated their interception behind him.
Sean McVay left the sideline and leaned into his ear. The coach didn't say much, but he encouraged his quarterback to learn from the Rams' offensive flop.
McVay and Goff are likely to be together for many more years, and they hope they'll remember their embarrassing 13-3 loss in the Super Bowl on Sunday night as a springboard to the future, not the crushing flop that it felt like immediately afterward.
