Despite the Vikings winning four more games than the Rams throughout the regular season, it will be Los Angeles that hosted its wild-card weekend matchup against Minnesota — and even though that game wasn't in L.A., it proved beneficial, as the Rams came out on top 27-9 on Monday night.
After winning the NFC West with a 10-7 record, the Rams earned the right to host a playoff game as the NFC's No. 4 seed. Winners in five of their past six games, the Rams kept their recent hot streak against a talented Minnesota squad.
Now in the divisional round, here's the full breakdown of who Los Angeles will face next.

Who will the Rams play next?
Because the Commanders earned a road win over the Buccaneers in the wild-card round, the winner of Monday's game in Arizona was destined to play Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon. L.A. will now travel to Philadelphia on a short week to take on the NFC's No. 2 seed in a rematch of a Week 11 game in which the Eagles dominated, winning 37-20.
