Re: 1974 Rams

That was probably the best of the Chuck Knox LA Rams teams. If Harold Jackson had managed to score on that long pass reception in the 4th quarter they had a great shot at beating the Vikings and going to SB IX. A match up with the young Steelers would have proven interesting.

Re: "New" Hail Mary footage
