I continue to enjoy these memories Tim. One small item: Mike Guman is referred to as a TE, but I believe he was formally a RB (an FB), with the Rams. He was known as a reliable guy and in Rams lore he's a favorite although he didn't really make a lot of major plays.
Two other great names from this memory are LeRoy Irvin and Mike Lansford. Irvin at his peak could play with anyone and he did a bunch of great things for the Rams, including some great punt returns. Of course he had a bunch of interceptions too, but the sweetest was the one against Joe Montana.
Lansford was the long tenured kicker that bridged many of the years between Frank Corral and Jeff Wilkins. He was a barefoot kicker that was pretty good and delivered in several clutch moments.
As for Monday's game...I'm still disappointed in that weak performance against the Niners. It was obvious watching the energy and attention levels in the game which team wanted it more. So of course I'm pulling for the Rams but also prepared for getting beat. If the Rams D shows up for the whole game, I think they can pull it off.
