Stafford’s LA Rams hold off Saints to surge forward in NFC playoff race

• Stafford passes for 328 yards and two TDs in 30-22 win
• Rams jump past Vikings for sixth in NFC playoff standings

Sean McVay turned the Los Angeles Rams' already jubilant locker room into a party Thursday night with an announcement: The players are off until Tuesday, allowing them to spend the entire Christmas holiday with their families.

These surprising Rams earned their holiday with a surge of five wins in six games down the stretch, culminating in another impressive victory over a fellow NFC playoff contender.
