I'm not convinced about the Vikes being for real yet. They haven't beaten a team with a winning record and they've beaten the Lions twice. We saw how good the Lions were in that beat down by KC this week. They start a six game streak against good teams, beginning with the Rams and we will see how they are after that.
For the Rams, if we can win this while the Hawks and AZ are on bye - we will only be one game behind the Cards for top of the divison and will keep the Hawks below us.
We will also have our second win against a winning team.
