As the Vikings prepare for Sunday's Week 15 game with St. Louis at the Edward Jones Dome, here's a look at a handful of eye-opening figures and facts.

6

Draft picks, in total, acquired by St. Louis this spring in return for the No. 2 selection in April's draft. It started with a blockbuster trade with Washington, which moved up four slots to No. 2. The Redskins, of course, used that second pick on star quarterback Robert Griffin III. In return, the Rams received first round picks in 2012, '13 and '14 and a second-round pick (No. 39) this year as well. With the 2012 picks acquired from Washington, St. Louis traded the No. 6 selection to Dallas for the 14th and 45th picks. The Rams drafted defensive tackle Michael Brockers at 14, then traded the 45th pick for Chicago's No. 50 and No. 150 selections. With the 39th pick, the Rams took cornerback Janoris Jenkins. At 50, they selected running back Isaiah Pead. And with the 150th pick, they grabbed guard Rokevious Watkins.

The Vikings also have victories this season over San Francisco, Detroit (twice), Tennessee and Arizona in which they never trailed. On the season, the Vikings are 6-1 when leading after the first quarter.

336.1
Yards per game allowed by the Rams this season, fourth best in the NFL. Only the 49ers (275.5), Bears (301.7) and Seahawks (314.2). St. Louis is getting significant contributions throughout their defense. Ends Robert Quinn and Chris Long have combined for 17 sacks. Linebacker James Laurinaitis has a team-best 119 tackles. And cornerbacks Cortland Finnegan and Janoris Jenkins have six interceptions, including three returned for touchdowns.

2009
Year the Vikings last visited St. Louis. During a magical season, the Vikings delivered their second most decisive victory of the year. The 38-10 win saw Adrian Peterson score on runs of 5 and 7 yards while defensive end Jared Allen contributed a 52-yard fumble recovery touchdown.

62

Receptions this season by Percy Harvin. Harvin's catch total still leads the team by a wide margin, even though he hasn't played since Nov. 4 and was put on injured reserve last week. Kyle Rudolph has the best chance of catching Harvin on the Vikings' receptions list. But Rudolph (45 catches, 412 yards, eight touchdowns) was held without a grab Sunday against Chicago and has three games this season without a catch. Next on the team's catch leader list: Peterson (38 grabs, 211 yards) and Michael Jenkins (34-360).
