He was one of my favorite Rams of all time. He could do it all at Lber, tackle, cover, and blitz. He was fast for a Lber too. I got to hang out with him a few times around town back when we both partied. He was really mad when the Rams traded him to the Bills. It's a shame that he got his life together and passed away in a car accident. Really nice guy.
Isiah “Butch” Robertson, a free-spirited and hard-hitting All-Pro linebacker who helped the Rams win six straight NFC West titles from 1973 to 1978, died in a three-car crash southeast of Dallas on Thursday night, a Texas Department of Public Safety spokesman confirmed.
