The Los Angeles Rams got their eighth playoff win under head coach Sean McVay on Monday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings. Under crazy circumstances, the Rams beat the Vikings 27-9 and will now advance to play the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Divisional round. Matthew Stafford and the Rams offense were efficient while the defense took over the game. Here are my 10 takeaways from the win.
1. Rams offense got the fast start it needed
Throughout the regular season, the Rams offense struggled starting games. The Rams came into the game as one of the worst first quarter teams while the Vikings came in as one of the best.
