Oh man Corbin. Bite your tongue. I loved me some Johnny Johnson.

He finished 4th in my Top Ten All Time Ram Safeties post earlier this year. Played from '80-88, had 21 picks and 4 taken to the house in his time as a Ram. Very good player. (y)

You have a good one! Mine was center Bern Brostek in 1990 lol
Like I told Corbin, you had a pretty good player.

Brostek was a good center. He landed at #5 on my all-time Rams list. not bad. Once you get past the big dogs-Saul, Iman, And Doug Smith, I had him right there after Andy McCollum.

Brostek was a reliable starting center for several years. He blocked for Jerome Bettis. He was part of the transition to St. Louis in '95. His career was cut short by a back injury in '97.
