At Anaheim stadium and I think we were playing the Patriots. 2d half he comes in to replace ---? and is lights out. Money sideline passes to Ellard and deep long passes into the end zone. We lost that game on a last minute TD pass by someone to someone. I had to catch a flight and was sitting in the old bar at Orange County airport. Was talking to a Patriot fan and I remember telling him "I think we finally have a qb". He said yea that kid from Purdue looked really strong out there.
It was Steve Dils and it felt like forever for the Rams to make the switch. They just would not put Everett in the lineup even though they couldn't score for crap. The Rams actually started out well with Bartkowski at QB, going 4-2. But when he got hurt and Dils came in, they just couldn't score. 14, 14, 14, 20, 0 points scored in the games leading up to that NE game. By comparison, they were scoring 24+ points per game with Everett to finish the season.
Robinson was just too antiquated and stubborn for much of his time as Rams HC. Won a lot of games with Dickerson but they were always so one dimensional. If a defense could stop the run, we were toast.
