The Los Angeles Rams weren’t having much trouble moving the ball against the 49ers, going 10 plays and 64 yards on their second possession, but it ended in an end zone interception by Matthew Stafford. On their third drive, they strung together positive play after positive play.
They went 18 plays and 97 yards, making this their most successful drive of the entire season. And it was capped off by none other than Cooper Kupp, who caught a 16-yard touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford in the corner of the end zone.
It was a perfect throw and a great catch, with these two playmakers connecting for their 19th touchdown of the season – including the playoffs.
The first touchdown of the NFC Championship goes to @CooperKupp!
