The 2000 rams offense was ridiculously good. The first team to ever gain 7,000 yards in a season. It's also worth noting that their defense was the worst in the league, giving up 471 points. The talent was there. However, turnovers would kill St. Louis, just like in 2001

I remember this game very well. Such a great classic game !

For Three years the Rams had the most explosive and high scoring offense the NFL had ever seen. Also had a really underrated defense and were on their way to becoming a dynasty. Then they faced a little known sixth round draft pick in 2001 and now they’re back in LA.

I’m a lifelong Broncos fan, this will my 36th year as a fan. The 2000 season, and the previous disastrous 1999 season, was kind of the beginning of long-term mediocrity for the Broncos. The glory years the mid-to-late 90s were gone, as were the incredibly solid years of the 80s. They of course made the AFC Championship during the ‘05-‘06 season, but they really weren’t “good” again until Peyton came along in 2012.

1st year of the new Rams Uniforms, as you can see the Font style for the numbers was changed and streamlined the next year, they were still the No. 1 offense in the league but they ranked dead last on Defense, they were old and beat up, 2001 they Had 8 new starters on Defense one of them was Kim Herring, who was on the Ravens in 2000 the original no. 20

At a time when myself and many other Broncos fans thought Denver that Brian Griese was going to be the real deal. He had a solid season that year and ended with him the second highest TD to INT ration at the time in NFL history, trailing only Steve DeBerg from 1990. Of course both of those records have been obliterated by the modern era, but 19 to picks to only 4 picks stirred up a lot of buzz back then! Had you asked me in 2000 who would’ve had the better pro career, Brian Griese or the other Michigan QB who had just been drafted by the Patriots, I would’ve said Griese all day. I thought he’d be a natural leader and be the Broncos starting QB for the next 15 years. His next 2 seasons couldn’t have been more of a disaster. Oh, and that other QB from Michigan does hold the current record for highest TD to lowest INT ratio! I have nothing but love and respect for Brady though!

Theoretically the NFC championship could've been at MN against the Vikings which even though it was on the road the Rams also won big against them earlier that year & the Vikings then played in the Metrodome which I think the Rams could've handled.
