Tony Horn was so underrated. Gave the Rams offense a short field so many times.

One of the best return men ever. He was Devin Hester before Devin Hester came around. If he hadn't had the career ending injury no telling what kind of numbers he could have put up long term.

According to the NFL the Rams "Greatest Show on Turf" was the best offense in the history of the game.

Yes you are correct but the Greatest show on Turf refers to the 1999-2001 Rams, the term was actually coined in 2001, statistically the first 6 games of the 2000 season are the best offensively, but Kurt was injured in game 6, so 2001 Rams is considered one of the best offenses in NFL history statistically speaking

The 99-2001 Rams were definitely the greatest offense of all time.. if not statistically then when compared to the rest of the league. They were heads and tails beyond what any team was doing in this era and are the true innovators of the offense we see today throughout the league.

You’re correct sir. The SAINT LOUIS Rams had the greatest offense in NFL HISTORY
@anthonyconigliaro95217 ай бұрын
I just wanted to say thank you. I live in St. Louis and was in my late twenties for the Greatest Show on Turf. Up until 1999, we had lost something like seventeen straight games to the 49ers. Beating the Niners on their home field was one of the greatest games that I saw. It wasn't the best played game by the Rams, but the emotional value can not be understated. The Niners were like the boogeyman in St. louis. St. Louis had a long history of bad football, first with the Cardinals, then with the Rams. In 1998, we had a 4-12 season, worse than our previous 5-11 season. When Warner and Co. started not just winning football games, but making the games fun, well that was something previously unseen in St. Louis football. One last thing, I am going to argue that Kurt Warner was the greatest quarterback of all time. My argument centers on the fact that he took two perennially terrible teams, the Rams and Cards, to the Super Bowl. Back then, both of those clubs just thought it was pretty nifty just to have a .500 season. Without Warner, both of those teams were not very good, with him they were feared. Thank you for your time and great work.

This team was unreal. Best offense ever. Could have easily scored 700 points on the season if they didn't pull their starters in the 3rd quarter most games.

THE 1983 REDSKINS SET THE SCORING RECORD WITH 541 POINTS WHICH EQUALS OUTS TO 33.8PPG BEFORE THEY GOT MURDERED LATER THAT SEASON IN SUPER BOWL XVIII BY THE L.A.

STL sold out every game from their arrival in '95 up until 2007, when the team became truly unwatchable. And there were some VERY lean years in that timespan. I mean, we sold out every game in '98, when the team was 4-12, the novelty had worn off, and the offense was kind of embarrassing. We sold out the early games in '99 before anybody knew what kind of team we had on our hands. We sold out every game in 2004 & 2005 when the Greatest Show was on fumes and the front office had silly power struggles going on. It was only in 2007, when the abominable Linehan/Zygmut drafts caught up with them and the team quit on a head coach that was in way over his head did the sellout streak come to an end. And the years that followed were just unbearable. I lived and died with those Rams teams and even I had a hard time watching it. Blaming STL for lack of support is like blaming Kansas City Royals fans for bad attendance circa 2006 - the teams weren't just bad, but incompetent in a way that made it difficult for even the diehards to endure. And no matter what the national media liked to say, the Dome was a kickass place to watch a football game. Architecturally it was nothing special, but the seats hugged the field, every seat had a great line of sight, and the place magnified crowd noise to an almost ridiculous degree. I went to several home games during the last year in 2015, when Kroenke and Demoff were trying to nuke the attendance, and even then, at 2/3 capacity, the noise could be enough to be a problem for the opposing offenses.

You are right bro. I was there in scouting capacity on the sidelines in 2015 when they blew out the raiders. The first series when the raiders had the ball the third down noise was deafening. Mind you, this was a Rams team that was maybe a game or two under .500 playing a Raider team that had just won its first game all year and fired their head coach the week before. I had been a few times in 2000 and 2004 when they were a playoff team, but to hear it THAT loud in a non playoff atmosphere was insane.

So, you're gonna play that card? Maybe if the Ownership wasn't shit when they moved to St.Louis they would've never left LA. Where they belong! The Browns have been shit for years, worse than we were and still were pulling in fans. You're gonna blame ownership for the fans bailing? That's no excuse at all.
