Next up The Guy I like to call The "forgotten Man!"
He took Rose Grier's Place after he received, what turned out to be a career ending injury! At #78 DT Roger Brown:

If you look carefully at this photo of the team lifting up Coach Gilliam, you can tell how much Bigger Lipscomb was than his team mates!!

I Guess that's it for now! Jump on in Guy's the waters fine!!:D
I Dare you to come up with better photos and gifs! Comments!?!:shades:
 
Great photo's DaveFan51!

Loved #78 Jackie Slater
One of the greatest to ever play offensive tackle. 7x Pro Bowler, NFL record 20 seasons with one team, blocked for seven different 1,000 yard rushers, Inducted into the Hall Of Fame and RAMS Ring of Fame in 2001. Such a great career I just had to repeat it DaveFan'51:)

Slater:
Slater4.jpg

His stats: 259 games/4 FR's/18 Post seasons games. Belong on a "Stats Don't mean Squat!" List! AT THE TOP!
Slater5.jpg

It's not the nature of the game for O-Lineman to get much credit! At least not back before the NFL top 100 list and PFF!

* Roger Brown- 1967-69 /3 Season
Brown4.jpg

he went to 1 Pro Bowl with the Rams, played in 42 games, and only had 4 FR's and in 2 post season games only had 1 sack ..
Brown7.jpg
He does get enough credit! He too belong at the top of the "Stats Don't mean Squat List!"
But then maybe we should Blame Coach George Allen for that, he had a habit of picking Older players from other Teams! Brown had 5 Pro Bowls and 2 All pro season w/ the Lions before Allen Grabbed him up!
OH! How Long was Grier w/the Giants before he came here!?

* And then there's "Big Daddy Lipscomb"
Lipscomb1.jpg

Is the only thing he ever did, Lift Sid on his shoulders after we Won the Title!!
 
Can ANYONE come up with more Photos or video's!?! I'M STARVING!!:D
 
You won't find a #78 on the current roster. Big Jackie Slater's number was rightfully retired, one of 3 numbers in the "70's". The other 2? Anybody guess, off the top of their head?...
