Rams were SMEARED by injuries. They were struggling to find offense. To win games. The eeeeeeeeked into the Playoffs. NOOOOOOOBODY thought they should even be there. And WIN IN DALLAS????? NOOOO FREAKING WAY!! I STILL remember a local sports guy here in Jacksonville laughing about it. It pissed ME off. I was just a skinny 7th grader. I KNOW it pissed off the Rams because I believe they shunned the media. WELL....The Rams shut down Staubach and company. THEN, it was ALLLLLLLLLLLLL about the Media Darling Buccaneers! (You guys should have seen that here in Florida!!) Rams TOTALLY shut them down / shut them OUT! Then it was.....How DARE anyone think they can be on the same field as The Steel Curtain. Rams lost 31 to 19 but were just 3 plays from winning that game by 7+.
I remember that 1979 season VERY well. I also recall what happened after 1989 and 2004. Enjoy it while it lasts fellas.
