Other than Stafford, who passed for four touchdowns, receiver Demarcus Robinson probably benefited most from the return of Kupp and Nacua.

Robinson caught two passes, both for touchdowns.

His 25-yard reception in the third quarter gave the Rams a 21-17 lead. His 10-yard touchdown with just more than six minutes left increased the lead to 28-20.

“You can’t double cover everybody,” Robinson said, adding, “Those guys get a lot of double coverage, so that leaves me with a lot of one-on-ones and Matthew was able to see that.”

Robinson, however, did not have layups.

“I’m a pretty good player myself too,” he said. “I’m able to get open a little bit and Matthew … he’s able to see me and put the ball only where I’m able to have a chance to make a play.”
