Rams president Kevin Demoff was optimistic early Thursday that the playoff game could be held at SoFi Stadium, but it became clear there were many reasons to move the game.

Ultimately, the NFL had no choice. On Thursday, as multiple fires continued to burn across Los Angeles, the league announced it would move Monday night's wild card game between the Los Angeles Rams and Minnesota Vikings from LA's SoFi Stadium to the Arizona Cardinals' State Farm Stadium in Glendale.

Everything seemed pretty normal for the Los Angeles Rams during practice at their temporary home on a beautiful afternoon in suburban Phoenix.
