The Rams still 3 years away from becoming the first pro football team in history to wear helmets with logos, when star RB Fred Gehrke, being paid $1 per team helmet, painted the iconic horns on all of his Los Angeles teammates helmets. R.I.P. Fred Gehrke🏈

If you count the Rams .... ... Cleveland went to 11 straight Championships and won 8 rings

I think the Rams are the only franchise to win a championship in three different cities. Cleveland 1945, Los Angeles 1951, St Louis 1999.

wow! 1945 nfl title game in color.ww2 ended only months earlier. This is great to see, the NFL begining as The most popular sport which it became in the 60's and the war/merger with AFL.

TheRedbaron Lives!Thank you for subscribing. And yes this 1945 Title shows how NFL gameplay is evolving from it's rugby roots. And as the 1950's began, rosters expanded meaning players no longer had to play offense and defense. Also the 1950's saw what became the model for what became modern gameplay on both side of the ball. And with the advent of TV, the game was seen by a wider audience. suddenly the passion and drama of the game became very exciting. The College game was already quite established. But it to began to shed it's rugby roots. That's how the game developed into what it is today. And it's still the greatest thrill in the world.

Also In 1949 the rams wore color combo looking just like SC Trojans!! Could you imagine when they changed their uniforms in 2020 if they were red and gold and both SC and Rams had same colors!

Seriously though. The Super Bowl should've been Chiefs-Saints but the refs made sure it was Patriots-Rams. It is so rigged now it's not even watchable

The 1945 Cleveland Rams . . . the only NFL team to win the NFL championship, and then move the franchise to a new city the very next year.

A lot of sports reels from that time would do that. But it doesn't detract from the drama, especially with this game.

Todays players may be bigger, stronger, and faster but they don't have half the toughness of these guys...physical or mental. The Redskins fullback breaking his nose on the first play of the game but refusing to leave the game and running for a first down on the next play is a perfect example. Plus these guys weren't making millions of dollars a year either. They worked real jobs just like everybody else. I can't stand the NFL anymore and I'm about 99.9% sure it's scripted. The playoffs are DEFINITELY scripted
