1999 Week 5 49ers vs Rams Highlights

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

I wish anyone under 25 that's a football fan could understand how important this game was. The 49ers had beaten the Rams 16 straight times and most of the games were absolute blowouts. The 49ers owned the Rams in a way I've never seen one team own another team. They even deep sixed the first season the Rams were in St. Louis. The Rams hosted the 49ers at Busch Stadium having started 5-1. 49ers beat them 44-10 and it wasn't even THAT close. Just a soul crushing ass whoopin'. So when this game happened, even without Steve Young, the 49ers were absolutely confident they could win. And why not? Except...in many ways, this game marked a pivot in both franchises. The 49ers went in to decline and the Rams rose to be one of the elite teams in the sport.

[@AndyStubblefield]

Not to mention, after that 44-10 loss, the Rams went on to win just 2 of their next 9 games to finish the year 7-9. Completely demoralized them.

Looking back at these games it was amazing how accurate and quick Warner was to make decisions and simply stand in that pocket and deliver.. The talent on this team, Just WOW..

[@roland7584]

His short passes were on the money with defenders all over his receivers. He'd let go of his long throws just when he was going to get hit and they'd fall out of the sky right into his receiver's hands. He's as close as anyone could have gotten to 3 Superbowl wins.

That was interesting. I lived in St. Louis during this era. Some of my favorite memories as a stl fan were because of this team and later the cardinals. Warner was accurate and fearless and Bruce and Holt could fly on that turf and stop on a dime. And Faulk was great. It felt revolutionary to me because I’d never seen such a dominant football team. I didn’t get to see the 49ers in the early 90s I was too young.

[@artistamisto]

This game was a lot of fun, one of my favorites over the 9ers. Before the game a lot of people were wondering if the Rams would fold up again vs SF after putting together wins at the beginning of the season like they did in the past. The 9ers and their damn fans were surely expecting it, and it was great to hand them a much deserved beating. Then they said "wait till we get you at home" and then later got another beating. Season sweep!

That season, the '99 Rams were playing at a different speed than any other team in the league. And it was because of Mike Martz offensive philosophy, up to 4 players could be wide open at any given time. Even the Minnesota Vikings with Cris Carter, Randy Moss, and Robert Smith couldn't keep up with the Rams in the playoffs.

I remember drafting Trent Green in about the 8th round of the '99 Fantasy season. When he went down, I picked up Warner when he was named the starter. Just as a back up at first for whoever else I had (I don't remember), but then started him from the 2nd week on. I also had drafted Faulk in the 2nd round and knew the Rams would score a little more, but had no idea this year would happen. Those two guys alone help me win over $1000 that fall. Never felt smarter in my life... :)

[@deanladue3151]

The big difference the '98 Rams and the '99 Rams besides Kurt Warner was Marshall Faulk. That offense became truly dangerous with the addition of Faulk.

Having Issac Bruce healthy, an emerging Torry Holt, a fired-up Marshall Faulk & a quarterback with nothing to lose and everything to prove in Kurt Warner. Add Mike Martz's aggressive playcalling and you get the greatest show on turf.

In fact, the 49ers would win 12 straight road games vs the Rams either at Anaheim Stadium in Anaheim/Bush Memorial Stadium/Trans World/Edward Jones Dome in St.Louis between 1987-1998. As for the St.Louis Rams, they would begin a stretch where they would go (10-2) in their next 12 games against the 49ers from 1999-2004. Then the 49ers would go (11-3-1) in their next 15 games between 2005-2013 than between 2014-18 both teams would split a pair three times then the Niners would sweep the Rams in '16 then the Rams swept the Niners in'18 and at press time from 2019-present the 49ers have now beaten the Rams five straight times and has beaten the Rams in series sweeps three times in the last six years.
