No flag was thrown, however, and the Rams went on to win 30–20 to improve to 3–4 this season. Los Angeles sacked Darnold twice in the fourth quarter and three times throughout the game. After allowing touchdowns on the Vikings' first two possessions of the game, the Rams held Minnesota to just six points the rest of the game.

Could Vikings' quarterback Sam Darnold look even better than he has through the first six weeks? Maybe so. On Thursday, under the bright lights of Thursday Night Football, Sam Darnold is cooking against the Los Angeles Rams.
