If you try Matthew Stafford with a cover 0 blitz, you better get to him because he’ll make you pay.
The New England Patriots learned that the hard way on Sunday when they tried it in the third quarter. The result? A 69-yard touchdown pass from Stafford to Cooper Kupp, who could’ve crawled into the end zone. That’s how far away the nearest defender was.
Kupp beat his man and after making the catch, there was no one back there to wrap him up. It wasn’t the easiest touchdown Kupp has ever scored, but with it being pure one-on-one coverage, it wasn’t a huge challenge, either.
a nice way to start the second half

This was Kupp’s second touchdown of the game, with the first being a short 5-yarder to get the Rams on the board in the second quarter.
