Merlin, I know you where just a kid at the Time, But you must have really loved the 1975 version of the Rams "D"!!Defense for me. A great defense gets itself off the field and avoids the periodic let downs we have been plagued with under Fisher's tenure. Our defense is good, but not great. Wade called that shortly after his hiring and he was right. Great defense can win it all by itself, just look at the Ravens or more recently the Broncos.
Fact is I love a good offense. I love the run game and the pass game. But I cannot abide watching my team if they cannot stop the other team, it's like being tortured even if you win in a shootout week after week and then you just know your team will be knocked out in the playoffs. I can suffer through a 3-0 win, though, and be good with it, and also feel a lot better going into the playoffs if my team has demonstrated an elite ability to limit points throughout the season.
Think, Dryer - Youngblood - Olsen - Robertson!
The Team went 12-2 that regular Season! They only gave up an average of 9.6 Points Per Game! ( 2nd lowest average in NFL History!)
They ended the Season with a 6 game Winning streak allow only a total of 32 points!:wow:
That was real Rams Football at it's Best!!!:yay::yess:
