There are many others but man we had some great offensive players. I know we had alot of great defensive players also but there aren't many records for defense.

We all agree Pro Bowls don't mean much,except when OUR guys get selected! Go SJ, Marc, and Torry!

Some additional current Rams players Pro Bowl records:

Bulger -- most TD passes in a game (4)

Faulk -- most rushing yards in a game (180); so far above everyone else it's ridiculous. Second is 120.
Faulk -- longest run from scrimmage (49) and second longest run from scrimmage (41) TIED in latter with McCutcheon

Faulk -- highest game rushing ypc by a ton (14); second highest career rushing ypc.

Not all records were while wearing HORNS but still our guys...

GO RAMS!!

Its good to look at these records when we're in such crummy times...

Always enjoyable to read about our Ramrecords, RnD! :r And you're right, they are plentiful ... and counting.

It's true, the offense records in football normally outshine those on the other side of the ball (as well as ST). However, known as a "quasi" record are the 26* sacks that Deacon Jones had in 1967 as part of the formidable Fearsome Foursome [what a tremendous year that was for the Rams!**]. And that was in a 14 game season, which was the norm back then.


As V6 said, it's nice to reflect on these merits during the dire days.

**. - Most points scored in the NFL that year, 398. AND Fewest allowed, 196. We lost only one regular season game. I remember, believe me, I remember!

Boy I 'm flashing back to that Sunday night ESPN game when Willie "Flipper" Andersen torched the Saints for those 336 yards.That game was a classic because the Saints were in our division and right on our heels at that time for the spot in the playoffs we eventually won.(This was also the last year that 5 teams from each conference went to the playoffs 3 div. winners got byes and 2 wildcards played on Wildcard Weekend).One of the most memorable moments in "Flipper"'s career happened against the Giants in the playoffs that same season as he caught a bomb from Jim Everett for the winning touchdown in OT at Giants Stadium and ran right out of the endzone directly into the locker room.Great memories!!!

You could also include first QB to throw for 300+ yards 9 times in a season... twice (Warner in 1999 and 2001).
