That whole season was like a movie!!! The first play from scrimmage in the postseason is a bomb to Bruce for a TD. The Championship Game was a low scoring slugfest we had to pull out in the end. The Superbowl was a slugfest. I still remember the clip of Fisher screaming at his team....."look at them. They're over there celebrating. Now go win this!!!" The only thing incorrect about recollections of that SB was the one yard short of a SB Championship BS. No, they were one yard short of a tie and the first OT SB in history. But they couldn't do it. TGSOT goes down as one of the most surprising and exciting Champions in history. Vermeil rides off into the sunset but only the length of Missouri. Martz becomes the Wizard of Weaponry and they don't win another one but start a dynasty. I often wonder what happens in history if it was a loss by N. England in SB36? But we'll never know. But because it's a Not For Long- What Have You Done Lately type of existence, I picked 2021 with the current regime. If you were to ask me which was my favorite Superbowl, I'd say 14. Because it was our first, after so many disappointments in the 70's. We were not expected to be there at 9-7 and gave Pittsburgh the toughest game they had in a SB. I think it was Facenda, the voice of God, who said, "the Rams gained more in defeat than Pittsburgh did in victory".
WHAT !?!
Well, Brady retired after the Rams beat Tampa in the 2021 Division Round on Matt Gay's final-play field goal. However, he did return in 2022; and his final game was a Wild-Card playoff loss to Dallas.
They did end Staubach's career and Tarkenton's, whose last game was a 34-10 Divisional Round loss in 78' at the Coliseum.
