Count Down - Jersey #36

[DaveFan'51]

Late Today! Internet Problems here!!
I'm just going to jump to the "Big man of the day to start, then I'll get to the rest!!

At #36 - RB Jerome Bettis: (1993-95)

He was Rookie of the year in 1993

He Played in 47 games for us

He rushed 796 Times for 3091 Yds. and 13TD's with an aver. of 3.9 per. ( After he went to the Steelers he rushed for 100500+ more with a 3.9 aver.)

He also had 75 receptions for 643 Yds. with 1 TD. an aver. of 8.6 ( He added 800+ more and 2TD's with the Steelers to his career tot.)

He went to 2 Pro-Bowls with the Rams ( 4 more w/Steelers)

He was an All Pro once with the Rams and once with the Steelers

Doesn't he look Great in our Throwbacks!

When we Traded him in 1996, and got a 3rd and 4th round pick for him. I wish we had keep him!
Then again we may never have gone after Faulk if we had!

Then again we could have had Both!!

This photo gives you an idea why the Steelers wanted him!

Back shortly with 5 more players! Jump-on-in with any gifs, or comments!!

GO RAMS!!

Now I have K - Paige Cothren: (1957-58)

He may have been a FB, But ..

He was a very Highly rated Kicker in 1957!!

Next up, FB/HB - Ben Wilson: (1963-65)

He was a well rounded RB, rushing 328 times for 1136 Yds. and 7TD's and he had 33 receptions for 399 Yds. an aver. of 12.1! He also Passed 1 time for 8 Yds.

Next man, LB - Ken Geddes: (1971-75)

He played in58 games for the Rams

and he was in 5 Play-Off games

Here he is along-side someone named Merlin something!

I Love the back-ground in this photo!

Next, from the GSOT Days! RB - Justin Watson: (1999-2001)

He did alright in his short time here, rushing 102 times for 428 Yds. and 4 TD's with an aver. of 4.2

He was a 'Baller'


And My final man for the Day, one of our current RB's - Benny Cunningham: ( 2013- Present)

Let me just say, I Like him and don't think he's been used enough!
Now with Gurely, I don't know if he'll ever be more than #3 RB!

OK Guy's your Turn!!
GO RAMS!!

I have been a little busy to enjoy the # count. That was very cool. Never understood trading Bettis. Nice feet for a big guy, YPA was not great but he was a gamer. I remember Geddes. I like Bennie too. Surprising quick feet to gain YAC on short passes

Here's another layer to add to the mix:
DB - Quincy Butler - 2008-2010

In his 3 seasons as a Ram he played in 21 games.

He had 9 Passes Defended and 1 Fumble w/ 34 TKL's and 6 Assists.

He had his moments, good and Bad!

Here he's covering Rodney Wright.

He had 2 PR's for a total of minus 2 Yds.

Here he's showing his Talent at " Muffing-A-Punt!"

I don't know what happened to him, Bad Team I guess!

Coming into the Rams hoping to just make the roster, Benny Cunningham continues to be a reliable, hardworking back for us. Here's some plays that show just how much effort he gives for us every game:
