The Los Angeles Rams have had far from a normal last week. Still, they continue to play some of their best football of the season.

The Rams broke records and made history in a number of ways on Monday night, putting together a game to remember in Arizona

A Los Angeles Rams official told USA TODAY Sports that roughly 30 members of the organization (coaches, players and staff members) evacuated their homes due to the fires. The Rams had an understandable reason to be distracted versus the Minnesota Vikings at State Farm Stadium on Monday night.

Unfortunately for the Vikings, they were unable to put up a good fight in the Wild Card and got blown out by the Rams, 27-9. The Los Angeles defense smothered the Minnesota offense, with Sam Darnold even tying the NFL record for the most sacks taken (nine) in a playoff game.

The final matchup of Wild Card Weekend is on Monday, Jan. 13 and sees the NFC West-winning Los Angeles Rams take on the Minnesota Vikings in a rematch from Week 8 that will take place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Ariz. due to the wildfires in Los Angeles.

The Minnesota Vikings (14-3) hit the road in the playoffs against the Los Angeles Rams (10-7) in the NFC wild-card round on Monday, Jan. 13, 2025 at State Farm Stadium. Over their past five meetings, Los Angeles has collected three wins against Minnesota.
