"My first NFL memories were going to the L.A. Coliseum in the late 60s to see the George Allen-coached Rams led by Roman Gabriel, Merlin Olsen, and Deacon Jones."

You remember them??

Tell ya -- those Rams teams were nast-y -- led by Deacon Jones and the rest of the "Fearsome Foursome."

Hey, the Steelers were very impressive, eh?

Yup, the old blue and white Rams. (My first game was in '70, Allen's final year coaching). They were 41 - 11 - 4 from '67 to '70 and beat the best of the best during the regular season, but Dallas and Minnesota always kicked their asses come playoff time. ....and the "ground Chuck (Knox)" Rams of the mid-70s had equal regular season success, and equal playoff ineptitude.

The Steelers look unstoppable, but I think Seattle would give 'em a good game. ....and if the 'Hawks can magage to keep the ball away from that little All-Pro receiver they'll be there...
