The dynamic 14-3 Minnesota Vikings’ season came to an end on Monday night, not with a bang but a whimper, as they were blown out 27-9 by the Los Angeles Rams. In an instant, one of the best campaigns in Vikings history was snuffed out in the Wild Card round in a rather uncompetitive fashion.

Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah did not say much when asked about the team's upcoming decision to make on QB Sam Darnold.

The former USC Trojans star completed 25-of-40 passes for 245 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Darnold also lost a fumble, which was recovered for a touchdown, and was sacked nine times by Los Angeles, which tied an NFL postseason record.
