Eric "the Great" Dickerson!!!
Never heard him called "the Great" but it fits....Dickerson #29......easy....first season 1800+ yards....second season 2000+

I agree with almost all the guys mentioned so far and I would add Bruce to the list. I know his career was on it's last legs but to me there are some guys that should be lifers and Bruce was one of them. He should have never worn another teams jersey.
I'm no coach, but i don't see how Lovie Smith felt that L.Fletcher wasn't a fit for his cover 2 defense. His prototypical LB's were aggressive, smallish, speed guys and London was...well you get what i'm saying?
I'm not really buying that take.
Wendell Tyler. Final Answer
Yeah, but that was in the first game against the Titans because of Kearse. He redeemed himself in SB34.Freddy Falsestart? Really? I can see the other two but never a fan of Freddy. Didn't he have something like five or six false starts and a couple other penalties in one game with us?
Well he did a good enough job against Jevon Kearse in two games Fisher wanted him.Freddy Falsestart? Really? I can see the other two but never a fan of Freddy. Didn't he have something like five or six false starts and a couple other penalties in one game with us?
Coach Vermeil retiring will always be the missing part of the dynasty that should have been. What if Walsh would have walked away from the 49's after winning the first one? That's what happened to us. The glue that held it all together went off into the sunset only to realize it was a mistake.

I disagree Martz was fired because he wouldn't accept a performance clause in a contract extension,they were ready to extend him at near Parcels type money with an out if his win totals dropped too low,Marmie was why the fans wanted him gone,but the final straw was the contract impasse and the public war of words over it.Very True and many have had the Great Debate of Vermeil or Martz, but it was the combination and Martz was signed on to be the Next Coach anyway so he might have waited an extra couple of years. Vermeil admitted later, it was his greatest mistake, but he went with his gut and it failed him.
Vermeil's greatest weakness was that he was loyal to a fault something old school guys (including yours truly) fall into. It was hard for Vermeil to fire guys like Jerry Rhome and force Dick Coury to retire, but John Shaw forced him to do so one of the few things Shaw got right. In the end the Rams suffered because Martz was not ready from a personnel standpoint and it showed and then the clash with Jay Zygmunt as before Zygmunt and Martz were very close.
Funny thing about Mike Martz the reason Larry Marmie was fired at Arizona State was because he did not want to fire his offensive coordinator who was????? Michael Martz...Then years later the main reason Martz was fired and the last straw between Martz & Zymunt was the hiring of Larry Marmie as defensive coordinator. Zygmunt wanted Dick Jauron and had reached out to Jauron to come in for an interview when Jauron met with Martz, Martz told him that he was sorry he had traveled to St. Louis because he already had offered the job to Larry Marmie.
