So, you know you're old if you know Roman Gabriel, Pat Haden, and Deiter Brock played for the Rams. Pictured below is Deiter Brock's best attribute when he played for the Rams.

Roman Gabriel was the first Rams' qb I was aware of. He sure seemed to fumble - a lot! Then John Hadl was the man for a while.

And if Dickerson could have caught the ball when coming out of the backfield, he may be known as the greatest football player - ever. He could not catch the ball to save his life! It's kinda funny, Gurley makes it look so easy.

The Gabriel era Rams would run into either the Vikings or Cowboys in the playoffs and that was the end of the season.

Dude WTF????

WHY!?!? :facepalm:

Hes a great guy, dont get me wrong. He definately cares about his players. With that said, hes absolutely one of the worst strategic managers that I have seen. His post season blunders are just unacceptable at this level.

Did any backs during that era do that? Although, looking at his stats, he caught 51 passes his rookie season. That more than most receivers on the team.

The NFL should be ridiculed for this happening again. It's the rice situation all over again. This happened BEFORE the season started. TMZ got a hold of it and it's the only reason the NFL is taking action.

Perhaps the tape wasn't released to them. Lol

Just can't get excited about that team. All the losing and lottery picks then... Lebron James is the one leading the team.

The young players seem to be playing with more confidence and gusto though with LeBron. They didn't look this good last season, or the year before, or the year before that. It's a bit unlike Kobe's final season here where it was less about developing the young players and more about Kobe.

Rams with a tough test in Chicago. Need to win this one to stay ahead of New Orleans in the race for home field advantage.

Rams have been trying to lose this game since kickoff.Just an ugly game by them. 93 total yards going into the 4th quarter.

Rams sloppy play tonight may have cost them a trip to the Superbowl. New Orleans has been sloppy of late as well, but they held it together and won today.

The Bears let them stay in the game til the end. This was a very winnable game, but the Rams offense didn't know it. 6 points is Jeff Fisher bad.
