1969 NFL playoffs The NFL playoffs following the 1969 NFL season determined who would represent the league in Super Bowl IV . This was the last NFL playoff tournament before the AFL - NFL Merger . Conference championships . Three weeks prior to this game , the teams met in Los Angeles in a battle between the undefeated ( 11 - 0 ) Rams and the 10 - 1 Vikings . The Vikings won that game 20 - 13 . The rematch was played in the cold and snow of Minnesota . Early on , it appeared that the Vikings took a quick lead as Carl Eller intercepted a Roman Gabriel pass and returned for a touchdown but the score was nullified on an offside penalty on Alan Page . In the game in L . A . , the Viking defense shut down the Rams ' wide receivers and outside running game , so in this game , the Rams attacked the middle of the Viking defense and neutralized the Viking pass rush with short quick passes to the tight ends . The Rams opened up a 17 - 7 halftime lead with touchdown passes going to tight ends Bob Klein and Billy Truax . The Rams could have had more but had to settle for a field goal after driving to the Minnesota 3 yard line . The Rams defense held Minnesota ' s high powered offense in check , with the " fearsome foursome " defensive line harassing Viking QB Joe Kapp . In the second half , Viking coach Bud Grant adjusted his defense to stop the Ram tight ends , and his " purple people eaters " continued to punish the Ram running game . They also got increasing pressure on Ram QB Roman Gabriel . On offense , Grant neutralized the Ram pass rush by having QB Kapp run the ball , either on designed plays like quarterback draws or roll outs , or by instructing him to take off and run at the first sign of pressure . Kapp began frustrating the Rams with runs ; this threat caused their pass rush to be less aggressive . The Vikings scored in the 3rd quarter to cut the Ram lead to 17 - 14 , but early in the 4th quarter , the Rams answered with a drive of their own . Once again , the Viking defense bent but didn ' t break , stopping the Rams inside the 10 yard line and making them settle for a short field goal . So instead of being down 24 - 14 , it was only 20 - 14 and Kapp subsequently marched to Vikings down field , going the final 2 yards himself as Minnesota took its first lead of the game , 21 - 20 . Then the Viking defense took over , and with under 4 minutes to play , Carl Eller sacked Gabriel in the end zone for a safety , giving the Vikings a 23 - 20 lead and the ball . But the Rams defense held , and 1969 NFL MVP Roman Gabriel began to march the Rams down field in the last two minutes . As they crossed mid field , it appeared the Rams might get the tying field goal or winning touchdown , but a Gabriel pass was tipped and then intercepted at the Viking 40 yard line by Alan Page and Minnesota ran out the clock .
