The Vikings basically kicked off their playoffs last week when they played the Lions. Quick reminder: It didn’t go well. The running game gashed the Vikes defense for 178 yards and Goff was extremely efficient, completing 27 of 33 passes. On the other side of the ball, Sam Darnold once again looked like…Sam Darnold. He completed just 18 of 41 passes and short-armed throws all game long.
The Rams will look to get Kyren Williams going again, just like he did in the first game when he went for 97 yards and also picked up five receptions. As far as Stafford goes, no quarterback in history averages more yards in the postseason than Stafford’s 303.7 ypg.
The Rams beat the Vikes 30-20 back in October in LA. Even though this game has been moved to Glendale, Arizona because of the fires, the Rams aren’t a team that’s known for their distinct home-field advantage and it’s not as big of a deal as it would be to the Bills, Lions, or Chiefs.
