As a L A Rams fan since 1970 this was the most amazing football year for me & my family. I would guess for any football fan watching the Rams in the 99 season was amazing..👍
Even crazier if the Ravens went on to win the title the next year with the greatest scoring and run defense of all time! But the story here is Warner. Best rags to riches sports story I know.
Growing up a child of the 70's & 80"s, these uniforms/helmets were everything to me...they just POP!!! The uni's they wore this past weekend are growing on me but...these were the best.
@@ssimpala1901when they played in the LA Coliseum with the Fearsome Foursome, those white and blue uniforms were my favorite, but these uniforms were a strong #2.
I just remember when Rams played for St Louis and I was in graduate school in Missouri and my colleagues watching Rams Monday night football thinking LA not St. Louis.
I can only imagine what it must've been like to watch this game live. How many people thought it was just a surprising performance, and how many realized that they were seeing greatness being born right in front of their eyes?
My mother bought me a book at seven years old that had a chapter on The Fearsome Foursome of the Los Angeles Rams and I became a fan from that day on in 1971. It has been rough some years but this 1999 season is the one that finally brought us a championship. When Trent Green went down in the preseason that sense of dread came over the fanbase, yet little did we know Kurt Warner would emerge as the QB we had always dreamed of having. I admit I was not optimistic late in the 4th quarter of the SB when Steve McNair was driving the Titans, but Mike Jones made the greatest tackle in NFL history to win the Super Bowl for the Rams!
I'm a lifelong Steelers fan but I loved watching the Rams play when Kurt Warner was their quarterback not to mention those uniforms were pretty great too
I’m now a Washington fan but initially was a fan of the St. Louis Rams (as I’m a St. Louis Cardinals fan). Torry Holt was one of my favorite receivers as a young kid and London Fletcher is one of my favorite all time players. What a special St. Louis championship team this was
The best matchup in Super Bowl 35 the next year would’ve been a healthy Rams team versus the ravens that would’ve been a classic and this coming from a Giants fan too. We got our butts whooped.
Ravens fan here. I remember being confident the Ravens could win the game as the Rams hadn't exactly been a powerhouse the year before. Like everyone else, I didn't know this was the curtain raising on the Greatest Show in Turf.
I will never forget how great 6:36 this team was. It's a shame that new England had to copy all of Kurts hand signals in 2001 to win that super bowl game. I would call it cheating. So I agree with Cris Carter. And the nfl called it a upset 😡. I dont think so.
I loved when Kurt was in NY for a while. Class act even when he was benched for Eli. Wish he'd won another SB with Arizona. Just goes to show, you never know who is going to become a star. Once he got his chance he made the most of it. Great story.
1 thing that Warner did that you never see anymore is drop back with his shoulders parallel to the line of scrimmage. I wonder why he did that from time to time.
3:19 Just a tough year offensively for St. Louis. We ALL thought the Rams were sunk when Trent Green went down in the preseason. It took Kurt Warner one game to prove us all wrong.
Marshall Faulk, Kurt Warner, Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt were a heck of a quartet at those skill positions. 4 Hall of Famers. Or well, 3 and one that inexplicably keeps getting snubbed
It was a bold choice for Mitchel on the Ravens to wear number 19, for those that don't know that was Johnny Unitas' number. He is still beloved in Baltimore.
3:20 "Just a tough year offensively for St. Louis" Goes on to score 526 points this season after scoring a touchdown at the end of the announcers sentence.
Warner, one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the game. Faulk, one of the greatest backs in the history of the game. Bruce, one of the greatest wr in the history of the game. All came together at one time. Destiny.
Was an amazing team. So sad how St Louis got the screws when it comes to keeping a football team. They are definitely a football town, that deserved better.
@@GWhenning "28 years old, played at Northern Iowa." That's Kurt Warner. Northern Iowa is located in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Warner grew up in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, about 90 minutes away. Apparently, Gus did not realize that Iowa and Idaho are two different states
Also if it wasn't for the Rams Steelers would have never gotten their greatest Running Back in team history The Bus Jerome Bettis when they traded him to us so for that thank you Rams
The short answer is that owners are greedy and Stan Kroenke is no exception. The slightly longer version is that the city of St. Louis owned the stadium, not the Rams, so Kroenke moved to the team to Inglewood where he had bought up a bunch of land. Now he owns both the stadium and the land around it and makes a bunch of money renting it out to the Chargers and concert events and such and makes way more money doing that than ticket sales for Rams games.
Ezekiel 18:26 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.
let's be honest the new Rams uniforms are trash. Who ever designed them and the new logo lacks imagination. It's super mediocre, I swear it was probably made by someone relative in the Rams organization who was failing as a graphic designer.

Who would have known that was the first win into a Superbowl championship year after going 4 - 12 the previous year
Would be cool if this years team can shock the world
Even crazier if the Ravens went on to win the title the next year with the greatest scoring and run defense of all time! But the story here is Warner. Best rags to riches sports story I know.
@@MichaelMiner-k8b Now the Lions are The Greatest Show on Turf V2.0!
I was at this game for my first Rams bash in St Louis. It was magic and then continued magic there on out! The birth of GSOT!
Growing up a child of the 70's & 80"s, these uniforms/helmets were everything to me...they just POP!!! The uni's they wore this past weekend are growing on me but...these were the best.
No doubt the best-looking Rams uniforms and helmets, the horns are so iconic I wish they would go back to this logo.

Greatest Show On Turf!! 🙂👍
Unforgettable Ram Era!!!
The birth of the Greatest Show on Turf
Miss these days
Those were the days!! ❤❤
Miss the GSOT! Go Rams forever!
Sad it only lasted a few years.
@@louisskulnik7390 Yes. Still hurts.
Bring back these jerseys please !!!!
Let’s Go Rams!!!
I love this and the Rams during the mid 80's too early 90's was very hard for me. Now i feel we're always a contender every year. Horns up baby.
I just remember when Rams played for St Louis and I was in graduate school in Missouri and my colleagues watching Rams Monday night football thinking LA not St. Louis.
99 Los Angeles Rams Was Best Team Ever Made Won Super Bowl Championship Thanks For Uploading
Lol dat's cold! 😂
lololol no. The 49ers and Dolphins are the only argument for that title.....
@@PringlesCan-y7m fun fact, the 72 Dolphins didn't play a single team with a winning record in the regular season.
@@striderarmstrong8482 fun fact, the 72 Dolphins beat every team with a winning record in the playoffs and superbowl.
@@PringlesCan-y7m wow 3 1 score wins, 2 while at home. Calling this team the greatest of all time is the biggest farce out there.
The most exciting football team to watch of all time.
YEP.
Ah the memories.
Os passes do Kurt cara! Na mão! Preciso como um GPS.

The greatest non drafted player in NFL history.
Rod Smith. But I'm biased.
Ravens fan here. I remember being confident the Ravens could win the game as the Rams hadn't exactly been a powerhouse the year before. Like everyone else, I didn't know this was the curtain raising on the Greatest Show in Turf.
Marshall Faulk opened up their offensive, taking a lot of pressure away and making it easier for Warner to come in immediately and succeed.

Raven s fan here, I was always a Kurt Warner fan
From a Packers Fan:
Watching Kurt Warner was a pleasure. Great QB and an even better human being.
I loved when Kurt was in NY for a while. Class act even when he was benched for Eli. Wish he'd won another SB with Arizona. Just goes to show, you never know who is going to become a star. Once he got his chance he made the most of it. Great story.
I remember those days...you know, when the NFL was fun.
And great to watch
GOTTA GO TO WORK! As we all know, "Hard Work Pays Off. GO RAMS BABY!
Greatest NFL offense of ALL TIME.
By 4 games in, the Rams were the most watched team Kurt’s first season with the Rams….they could not be stopped.
One of the greatest teams of all time
1 thing that Warner did that you never see anymore is drop back with his shoulders parallel to the line of scrimmage. I wonder why he did that from time to time.
The old backpedal. Just like Dan Marino.
A lot of timing throws based on 3/5/7 step drops.
that route from holt at 4:57, my gawd.
MY BOY 😃
St. Louis Rams. MY Rams.
This Rams team was stacked!
17 yr season ticket holder those couple years were special
3:19 Just a tough year offensively for St. Louis. We ALL thought the Rams were sunk when Trent Green went down in the preseason. It took Kurt Warner one game to prove us all wrong.
Baltimore literally hasnt changed one thing about their jerseys since the 1990s. Crazy.
Not a Rams fan but they were so fun to watch. Warner, Faulk, Bruce , Holt, Proehl
Marshall Faulk is STILL the greatest football player I have ever seen. The guy was ridiculous
Marshall Faulk, Kurt Warner, Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt were a heck of a quartet at those skill positions. 4 Hall of Famers. Or well, 3 and one that inexplicably keeps getting snubbed
98-2000 were some of the best years in St. Louis.
Was a different game back then.
lifelong Lions fan here. Scotty checks out.
2:48 ray got shook up there
THE GREATEST SHOW ON TURF
Classic
I wish the Rams went back to these uniforms.
i forgot chad lewis was on this team. haha so great.
You had to know this game was going to be huge.... Gus Johnson is calling it. #LawOfGus
It was a bold choice for Mitchel on the Ravens to wear number 19, for those that don't know that was Johnny Unitas' number. He is still beloved in Baltimore.
Meh. Different team.
2:48 is ray lewis okay 😂
Lewis was gassed hahah 2:19
3:20 "Just a tough year offensively for St. Louis"
Goes on to score 526 points this season after scoring a touchdown at the end of the announcers sentence.
Warner, one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the game. Faulk, one of the greatest backs in the history of the game. Bruce, one of the greatest wr in the history of the game. All came together at one time. Destiny.
Was an amazing team. So sad how St Louis got the screws when it comes to keeping a football team. They are definitely a football town, that deserved better.
4:15 Someone please tell Gus Johnson that Boise is in Idaho, not Iowa
I can’t tell who he’s talking about, but I think that’s two sentences. Played for Iowa. From Boise. As in, from Idaho, went to college in Iowa.
@@GWhenning "28 years old, played at Northern Iowa." That's Kurt Warner. Northern Iowa is located in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Warner grew up in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, about 90 minutes away. Apparently, Gus did not realize that Iowa and Idaho are two different states
Gee I wonder why this video was created. 😎
Gus Johnson had the call
(Week 1) Sept 12th 1999
Line was a "pick'em"
Man Faulk got absolutely destroyed at 1:51
Its too bad these teams did not meet up on the 2000 Super Bowl. The great offense agaist the great defesnse.
Underdog Story brought me here.
I completely forgot Scott Mitchell played for the Ravens
Wasn't there a grass field back then?
Y’all, Scott Mitchell was baaad…😂
NFL is in slow motion compared to arena or ncaa ball
Those uniforms were SEXY.
Who is the announcer during this game because he does a lot of Ohio State games and fox games?
Also if it wasn't for the Rams Steelers would have never gotten their greatest Running Back in team history The Bus Jerome Bettis when they traded him to us so for that thank you Rams
Georgia Frontierre stealing the team from Carroll Rosenbloom's family is the main reason they wound up in St Louis.
Niner fan and how can you not like Kurt Warner? Except when he throw for 5 tds against SF…☺
Honestly after a team leaves a city they shouldn’t be able to take the name, any accolades with them to the next city.
That’s not Gus “freak out” Johnson is it?
2:58 dodged a homicide
Is that Gus Johnson on play by play?
Would trent green taken this team to the sb?
Trent was a talented qb and I think he was every way capable of winning a sb with the rams
Those fans were amazing, why did they move to LA? It's all freakin niner and raider fans out here.
It's usually about money.
The short answer is that owners are greedy and Stan Kroenke is no exception. The slightly longer version is that the city of St. Louis owned the stadium, not the Rams, so Kroenke moved to the team to Inglewood where he had bought up a bunch of land.

Watching Scott Mitchell scramble is pretty painful to watch. He makes Bernie Kosar look like Michael Vick.
Looked like Ray was out at 252
This team was so fun to watch
Ya it was
I'm not a fan of players who disown their teams. Puck 'em.
St Louis Rams
Ezekiel 18:26

Helmets look so small
Due to the pads being bigger
@@JohnMcGuirk-mo3id no, they are round and smaller than now.
Ray Lewis looking lost out there
Mike Martz ruined it all.....
Yup
I'd rate Warner just behind Brady for skillset and football IQ
OMG Mitchell was a horrible QB for Baltimore.
let's be honest the new Rams uniforms are trash. Who ever designed them and the new logo lacks imagination. It's super mediocre, I swear it was probably made by someone relative in the Rams organization who was failing as a graphic designer.
I've always said they look more like Chargers uniforms.
Rams not even scoring 3 touchdowns on Sunday 😂. Agent 0 and PQ about to eat
Hater
I forgot how garbage Scott Mitchell was.
Hardly. He just wasn't mobile. Mitchell threw more TD than INT, had a 4300 yard season, and got the Lions to the playoffs twice as a starter.
Why is Kurt Warner in the HOF? His stats aren't great. Does anyone have an answer?
5:00 "Perfect."
The play at 5:11….omg
