In St. Louis, the Rams systematically destroyed the woeful Viking defense and scored a huge victory at home, where they are used to winning.
The Rams got another huge game from Marshall Faulk in just his second game back from injury. Faulk had three touchdowns and 108 yards for St. Loius while the Vikings had yet another good game from Pro Bowl-bound Randy Moss. Moss had 10 catches for 160 yards and a score, but Minnesota could not find the defense that led them to six straight wins to open the season.
The Rams are now tied with the Philadelphia Eagles for best record in the NFC at 9-3.
