What is J.J. McCarthy thinking?? pic.x.com/WIPOTb0p04
What a wild turn of events. NFL reversed that Blake Cashman fumble return to an incomplete pass by Matthew Stafford. I guess Puka Nacua was the intended receiver? Vikings don't even get a sack. File that one away...
And the NFL agrees. The play has been overturned and the Vikings will retain possession.
@SeifertESPN: Sure looked like Josh Oliver was down before the fumble.
OK. Will Reichard is good from 34. I don't mind kicking there, even if analytics say whatever. It's a feel thing. You don't get it, momentum is off the rails. That's just me.
Brian O'Neill is walking off on his own. Justin Jefferson had walked back to check on him.
@alec_lewis: Oh my. Brian O'Neill is down, hands over helmet. Way behind play.
After all that: Daniel Jones is the Vikings' emergency No. 3 QB tonight. Nick Mullens remains the backup to Sam Darnold.
First big mistake for the Vikings: Jonathan Bullard jumps offside on 4th-and-1 and the Rams score on the next play. Bigger issue: Vikings got little pressure on Matthew Stafford as he went 5-5 for 59 yards on the opening drive. It's 7-0 at 10:22 Q1.
Had Jalen Nailor wide open over the middle and just missed him.
@alec_lewis: Very poor throw by Sam Darnold. It's felt like the pressure has kinda gotten to him. On that 3rd and 15, he was bouncing in pocket, not grounded at all, and nearly threw pick there.
Stephon Gilmore in man coverage in a bunch with about as good as you will see. That's teach tape.
Cam Robinson just got obliterated. The drop looked quick, but not quick enough. He's not going to have much time for five-step stuff at all, so it's gotta come out hot.
The Vikings' no-TD-drive streak ends at 21. Helluva catch and run by T.J. Hockenson.

Cam Akers active, Daniel Jones is emergency 3rd QB for Vikings-Rams. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

#Rams coach Sean McVay told reporters that TE Tyler Higbee (chest) is at the hospital in stable condition. “I think he's going to be ok.”

Remember when the Rams were 1-4 and teetering toward a fire sale and I said Minnesota should trade for Matthew Stafford?

The #Rams used Dan Campbell's “See you in two weeks” to #Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell as added motivation this week and weren't shy about letting everybody know. Safety Quentin Lake & Co. backed up their words tonight. pic.x.com/akLPum4MAJ
Jared Verse, scoop and score with a FLOURISH. JourdanRodrigue: Ahkello Witherspoon with the strip sack. This defense is rolling.

RT: Gotta give Les Snead some credit here…. Jared Verse, Braden Fiske, Kam Kinchens, Josh Karty, Beaux Limmer, Steve Avila, Byron Young, Kobie Turner, Puka Nacua, Davis Allen. ALL drafted in the last two years. Only ONE 1st round pick. #Fthempicks
Rams make the Vikings pay for the turnover on downs (via sack). Matthew Stafford hits Davis Allen for the TD, and this game is 24-3 right before halftime.
Rams inactives: Stetson Bennett, Tyler Johnson, Emmanuel Forbes, Brennan Jackson, Justin Dedich, Joe Noteboom
From a roughing the punter call that put the Vikings offense back on the field, to a great read and play on a screen on second down (Witherspoon) - Rams again get pressure on a long third down and Cobie Durant jumps Darnold's pass for the interception. Defense is UP.
Ex Cowboys made plays all weekend. This should frustrate Cowboys fans even more.
@VoiceOfTheStar: look at Neville Gallimore eating good ☺️

The Minnesota Vikings are the favorites, but by less than a field goal (-2.5), in this year’s Wild Card Round of the NFC playoffs, where they will face the Los Angeles Rams. The game kicks off at 8 p.m. ET on January 13, 2025, airing on ABC/ESPN from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The over/under is set at 48 in the outing.
In their most recent game, the Rams lost against the Seattle Seahawks, 30-25.
In that game versus the Seahawks, Rams QB Jimmy Garoppolo completed 27 of 41 passes for 334 yards, with two touchdowns and one interception
The Los Angeles Rams are making a few changes to their game-day roster for the start of the playoffs tonight. They announced their six inactives for their wild-card game against the Minnesota Vikings and there are two names that stand out: Tyler Johnson and Joe Noteboom.
Neither player is injured, meaning they’re both healthy scratches in this one. Johnson played 15 games in the regular season but was inactive in both Week 16 and 17 before playing with the backups in Week 18.
Noteboom is the more surprising inactive. He’s been the Rams’ swing tackle pretty much all season but it seems they like Warren McClendon Jr. better in that role
Before Puka Nacua takes the field Monday, there will be player props available for the 8:00 PM ET kickoff, live on ABC/ESPN. Nacua’s Los Angeles Rams enter a showdown against the Minnesota Vikings at State Farm Stadium in the NFC Wild Card Round.
Watch Puka Nacua and the Rams vs. Vikings on Fubo!
