It might just be the best matchup of wild card weekend.
The No. 6 Los Angeles Rams will be at the No. 3 Detroit Lions in a game headlined by quarterback storylines.
In 2021, the Rams and Lions made waves when they made a trade that swapped quarterbacks, along with other pieces. Matthew Stafford went to Los Angeles to help the Rams leap their Super Bowl hurdle while Jared Goff went to Detroit to continue his development.
Los Angeles went on to win Super Bowl LVI in 2022 and, despite a slow start this season, used a late surge to enter the playoffs full of momentum at 10-7. Goff, meanwhile, led the Lions to a 12-5 record and their first NFC North title in franchise history.
