On the Rams staff that year was a special teams coach named Dick Vermeil......who would lead the franchise (as the St. Louis Rams) to a SB championship exactly 30 years later. Very ironic. :-)
Great post this was the year I became Ram fan the Viking Loss still bothers me we were the better team and would have given the Chiefs all they could handle anyway great post Thanks 😀😀🏈🏈🏈
I hear you both and I’m a huge fan of Rams. I believed for so long Rams would have beaten Chiefs also. But Chiefs we’re big and talented. Vikes beat Rams twice that year and as I remember we’re just better. The what ifs in that playoff game were just that. Rams had no time to throw in both games. Refs didn’t help as after they called offsides on vikes on Ellers TD early every call went Vikes way after. Loved those Rams.
The Rams have no one to blame than themselves. They were 11-0 and had the Vikings at home no less and lost that game too. Having lost to the Vikings at home they should have made the necessary adjustments when they played them again in the playoffs--but they didn't.
It's damn Shame Rams couldn't hold lead and beat Vikings, the Rams would have beat the Chiefs in superbowl a better showing then the Vikings who got blown out,
Not really , the AFL was wide open football the outgoing NFL before the merger was 3 yards and a cloud of dust the Rams played the same way the Vikings did that year, nearly the same record
Hate to inform you of this & break your bubble, but the Rams did play the Chiefs in the preseason of 1969 at the LA Coliseum (the game was played on August 23, 1969) and the Chiefs demolished the Rams by a score of 42-14 (the Rams only loss in the 1969 preseason). Len Dawson passed for 418 yards that game. Merlin Olsen went on record saying that the physical beating the Rams took from the Chiefs was just as bad as the score.
Ahhh 1969, what wonderful memories this 9 almost 10 year old kid had.

@@retrohollywoodmotionpictures LMAO, you aren't actually talking about that silly Loser Bowl they used to have. What a ridiculous game that thing was. That was like playing for 3rd place in the NIT Bball Tourney. 🤪 🤪 🤪
Fifty-eight (58) Super Bowls have been played and at the conclusion of each the victorious team was NEVER the Minute Scrotum BiQueens!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHAHAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHA
@@kbrewski1 We both know who needs psychiatric help after all the queens CHOKE jobs in NFC title games since 1976. As your therapist, I must say, you brought this (and much NEGATIVE KARMA) on yourself and the BiQueens because of your inability to be honest with yourself and ADMIT that the queens LUCKED OUT with the zebras favoring them in EVERY ONE of those post season games at the old Met and, for that matter, the 88 game in the HHH dome.
RIP Roman Gabriel. :-(

If your aunt had balls, she would have been your uncle.
Vikes beat the Ewes TWICE WITHIN 20 DAYS IN DECEMBER.

Preseason games are only tuneups, starters don't play long more then they play today, If Rams got in 1969 superbowl still believe they beat Chiefs
