In an unprecedented turn of events, the NFL has relocated the wild-card playoff game between the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams from SoFi Stadium to State Farm Stadium in Arizona due to the Los Angeles wildfires. This matchup features a historic Vikings squad that holds the record for the most wins by a wild-card team, with 14 victories this season, setting the stage for a thrilling encounter.
Despite their lack of an NFC North title, the Vikings will look to replicate the success of previous wild-card teams, notably the 1999 Tennessee Titans. The Rams, who defeated the Vikings earlier in the season, are anticipated to face significant challenges with a competitive Vikings crowd expected to make their presence felt in Arizona.
