From 'love of the game' to Rams' game-winner: Inside the Matthew Stafford-Cooper Kupp pass

TAMPA, Fla. -- Cooper Kupp didn't think he was going to be the hero on the play that set up the winning score, sending the Los Angeles Rams to the NFC Championship Game.

The All-Pro receiver thought he was merely a decoy.

It was one more thing that didn't go as planned for the Rams during a second half in which they lost three fumbles and a 27-3 lead to Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before escaping Raymond James Stadium with a 30-27 divisional-round win.
