Hey all, been lurking recently but haven't posted in a while. I'm making a video for my YouTube channel of the Rams Top 10 Individual Seasons. I think I've narrowed it down to a good top 11, but the difficult part is the ordering of the top 10.
There are a few things I'm considering:
1) Not including Deacon, Olsen, Youngblood etc. because sacks didn't become an official stat until 1982. They will get a nod at the beginning of my video as honorable mentions.
2) I'm trying to base my top 10 primarily off of the INDIVIDUAL'S season. I'm only considering how the team finished about 10%.
So without further ado here is my top 11 (in no particular order)! Please give me your top 10 and explain your rationale for why certain players are higher than others.
1. 2017 Aaron Donald 91 pressures / 11 sacks / 5 FF / DPOY (14 gm)
2. 2017 Todd Gurley 2,093 tot yds / 19 TDs / OPOY (15 gm)
3. 2013 Robert Quinn 19 sacks / 7 FF / 1st Team All Pro
4. 2006 Steven Jackson 2,334 tot yds / 16 TDs / 90 rec / Pro Bowl
5. 2003 Torry Holt 1,696 yds / 117 rec / 12 TDs / 1st Team All Pro
6. 2000 Marshall Faulk 26 TD / 2,189 tot yds / 5.4 ypc / 4th st 2k yr / MVP (14 gm)
7. 1999 Kurt Warner 41 TD / 4,353 yds / MVP / SB 34 MVP
8. 1995 Isaac Bruce 1,781 yds / 119 rec / 13 TD
9. 1984 Eric Dickerson 2,105 yds / 14 TD / 131 ypg / 1st Team All Pro
10. 1952 Night Train Lane 14 INT / 2 TD / 1 safety (12 game season)
11. 1951 Crazylegs Hirsch 1,495 yds / 22.7 ypc / 17 TD / 1st Team All Pro (12 gm) /
1951 NFL Champion
12. Honorable Mention: Deacon Jones/Merlin Olsen/Jack Youngblood
