When I was a kid growing up, I had a favorite team every year with the Rams in 72. That defense was awesome.

I am a Rams fan but nobody choked more than the Rams in the 70's.

@@drewnogy They They weren't better in fact on the contrary the best team they had was 1969 rams coached by George Allen and went 11-0 .They could've won the rest of their games and went 14 - 0 with Roman Gabriel n the fearsome foursome but coach Allen wanted to rest his players and home field advantage was not in play. Every other year the NFC championship was alternative. So it didn't matter what your record was, because the rams would've played in LA Coliseum instead they played in Frozen Minnesota in freezing weather. But they were leading min 20 - 7 at halftime. But Joe Capp with seconds to go dove over Decon Jones for the game winner to make it 23 - 20 to win the game. I was 9yrs old and was devastated.

Beating the Vikings outdoors in the freezing winter for an LA team is MUCH different than playing them in front of 90k fans at the Coliseum.

growing up as a little kid in this era i always remember around the holidays my dad yelling at the TV set , sometimes throwing his Budweiser at it. when i got a little older and also became a Rams fan i understood why. the poor guy would always see the Rams get beat in the post season.

When I was a kid growing up, I had a favorite team every year with the Rams in 72.

1973 Rams, 210 point differential, #3 all-time in Rams history , that's a 2 TD advantage every game average, only the 1999 & 2001 team had better for/against numbers, wish they had won the Super Bowl in 73

Been a L.A. RAMS fan all my 66 years. Roman Gabriel was my hero when I was a kid. I love the new uniforms. It’s the only uniform the L.A. Rams WON a Super Bowl with. Hated that euro trash gold in St Louis but then they weren’t really our Rams were they. 2024 is going to be great year! Victory on Feb 9, 2025! R.I.P. #18

These Blue and Gold Uniforms are the greatest! The Rams should bring these uniforms back, like they did in Super Bowl LIII.

Great days. Always having a chance for the Super Bowl is exciting.

The 70's and the "Big-6". Rams, Cowboys, Vikings, Steelers, Raiders, Dolphins. Every NFC and AFC Conference Championship game from 1970-1979 had one or both of these teams in them. Only other participants for NFC that decade were 49'ers, Redskins and Buccaneers. For AFC the Colts, Broncos, and Oilers.

WOW 😲😳😳😳 50 Years ago. How Time flies

I remember watching that 1973 playoff game against the cowboys. This was the first year that I was a huge RAM fan. I was only 10. But the game started out with a couple of turnovers. They started off down 14 right off the bat

I was 7 years old at the time but I remembered most of that era I just started watching football.

I was barely three but I remember sitting on my grandfather's lap while we watched on TV. He would take my hands and clapped whenever #29 catches the ball. Harold Jackson was the original #29 Ram. Jack Snow was probably Cooper Kupp like at the time. I remember the Jack Snow name when he used to call Rams games on the radio during my pre teen years.

Before this season started, Las Vegas had the 49ers winning the NFC West Division. After the 1973 Season, the Los Angeles Rams had won the NFC West Division over the preseason favorites by a whopping 7 games. It only goes to show how wrong they can be in those Las Vegas Sports Books.

Not a Rams fan, but the Rams got screwed in 1973 by the playoff system. Finishing 12-2 and 2 wins ahead of 10-4 Dallas, they had to play in Dallas the playoff game where they lost. Even more ridiculous was the NFC Championship game also played in Dallas even though the 12-2 Vikings had the better record. This game, however, the better team would win. Still, the Vikings could never win a Super Bowl no matter where they played.
