were you most disappointed in that the Rams let the other team make it respectable late? 1980: Rams 38, Cowboys 0 (final score 38-14) 2000: Rams 49, Vikings 17 (final score 49-37) Tough call for me. Those two teams left scars on me in my youth. Tried to think of another game like these two, especially a Niners game, but couldn't think of one.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Kind of ironic that McVay has made sitting all starters in the preseason a Rams thing. When the Rams are the poster boys for a team that overcame a devastating preseason injury.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Mine was after this win over Dallas. Early 80s, I think.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams offense doesn't make a first down all year, but they go for it on fourth down every single time. Consequently, Johnny Hekker becomes the first punter to lead the league in rushing, passing, and touchdowns.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
1962 gave us Roman Gabriel and Merlin Olsen. Best 1-2 punch ever for us?by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotefearsomefoursome Dryer wasn't drafted by the Rams... True. Acquired in a trade on draft day. He's listed as their first round pick but it explains underneath. Was he drafted by the Patriots that same draft?by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm looking at old seasons on wikipedia and I noticed this group from 1973... Fred Dryer, Cullen Bryant, Ron Jaworski, Jim Youngblood Not bad, but I'm sure there have been some betterby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Would love to beat the Panthers 44-0by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Obviously division games are the most important, but what five games would satisfy your fanhood the most? I'd go with 1) Carolina (used to work for them for seven years), 2) Atlanta, 3) Seattle, 4) Chicago and 5) Dallas. Yes, I left off New Orleans. We beat them when it counted and we will again. The other games are more important to me.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
See if you agree with me on this. I only go back to 1973 as a fan, so the years before that are a guess on my part... Late 60s....Baltimore Colts Early 70s...San Francisco 49ers 1973 to 1980....alternate between Vikings and Cowboys 1981 to 2017...San Francisco 49ers 2018....New England Patriotsby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Big Whit was terrible that game. So was Shields.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Ravens helmet is horrible. Why not just have a white silhouette of Edgar Allen Poe inside a purple circle on a black helmet? IMHO, the only helmet designs worth a damn are the Rams, Vikings, Chiefs, Chargers, Seahawks (although the original was fine), Colts, Dolphins, Cowboys, Eagles, Redskins, Steelers, and Bengals. Boring designs that should never change....Packers, 49ers, Saints, Giantby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
I mean sports hate. Otherwise, I'd say Michael Vick three timesby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
1. Roger Staubach. So glad his last game was a loss to us. One where he played miserably. 2. Tom Brady. Wish WE were the team that was 2-0 against him in Super Bowls 3. Fran Tarkenton. Wanted so badly to see him get trucked while scrambling.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com

Radio guy was clearly out of line. And I'm someone who hates Andy Reid for bringing Michael Vick back into the League.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Well I stayed with them through the 90s and the post-Martz era, so I probably would have stayed with them then, too. But the playoff pain was real in the 70s. Especially growing up around Cowboys fans.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Steelers by three touchdowns at least. And I would have seriously thought about quitting the Rams. After the home loss to Bob Lee and the Vikings in 77, then a 28-0 loss to the Cowboys in 78, losing a second time to Tampa Bay that season would have sent me over the edge.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
What were they? Mine were... 1. Beating Dallas on MNF in 1980 38-14. Being up 38-0 and hearing Frank Gifford say "if you're just tuning in, this really is happening to the Dallas Cowboys" was an awesome feeling. Of course, two weeks later we lost at Dallas in the playoffs, but for one night this was the best feeling ever. 2. Beating New Orleans in the Flipper Anderson game (somby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
That was the one where we took a safety on the last play, rather than punt again. Between the 37-7 and 28-0 home thrashings to those @#$%&.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
DE Deacon Jones DT Merlin Olsen DT Aaron Donald DE Jack Youngblood Seriously, who can top that?by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
1. Beat Dallas again 2. Beat Minnesota in NFCCh 3. Beat anyone in SB. New England would be nice, but anyone. It's the Super Bowl.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
What scares me is it will take a half to shake off the rust from not playing starters in the preseason. That's what happened last year, anyway.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
I....hated....Roger.....Staubach. With every fiber of my being. Really not fair that we had to beat them (and the Vikings) with Pat Haden. What happened to our victory over Dallas in the third place game? The NFL just decided one year that those games no longer counted in the records. Well then don't count games like the Rams' loss to Philadelphia in 1999 when we rested all our stars at halftby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
I won an office NFL picks pool with this name. My last name is Borden, and the Professor and the Swami were already taken, so I became the Great Bordeni. Because I won handily people started calling me that. I was working at NASCAR in Daytona Beach at the time.by Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
Hey everyone Been lurking for over a year now because I couldn't get a name/password combo to work. An admin set me up yesterday so here I am. First became a Rams fan when I saw them playing Dallas in the 73 playoffs. They had my two favorite colors and those horns. Been hooked ever since. Love the owner/GM/coach triumvirate we have now. I feel like we'll have window after window afterby Great Bordeni - RamsFootballFans.com
