Please review your entry for defensive coordinator

I see Gregg Williams listed there. He was formerly of the New Orleans Saints staff, and just got an indefinite suspension (to include entire 2012 season) in the Saints' bounty scandal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 18:43, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Until the Rams announce their decision on what they're doing about the situation, there's nothing we can change. umrguy42 18:55, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, but I am now seeing a footnote noting the suspension. That'll do just fine while we don't know what the Rams will do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 21:22, 21 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

2012 uniforms

I've removed the 2011 alternate/throwback uniform and will replace it with the 2012 version once it becomes official. JohnnySeoul (talk) 06:00, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Correction needed on Frontieres end game in LA

It states the Rams traded Jerome Bettis because they drafted Lawrence Phillips. Phillips was drafted in 1996, after the Rams had already moved to St. Louis and well after Bettis was traded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.62.117.36 (talk) 03:24, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cleveland Rams merger

Someone put a Merge template on Cleveland Rams last month, but they didn't start the discussion here. Well, I'll do it.

It is clear to me that the Cleveland Rams, the Los Angeles Rams, and the St. Louis Rams, all should be together in one article. Why? They are one franchise and one team that share all the same team records. The St. Louis Rams count the NFL championship in 1945 as theirs, so they can't be a team that just came into existence in 1995. All three articles should be merged here.

I second this and agree with all of Husky's points. Same franchise all along.Frank12 (talk) 03:04, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm opposed to it. Anyone searching for information on the St. Louis Rams is probably not interested in their history in Los Angeles. Makes much more sense to keep all articles separate. -- MichiganCharms (talk) 18:04, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • First of all, that statement is completely unsubstantiated, and I personally believe that the opposite is true. Many fans are interested in their teams' histories.
  • Secondly, even if it was true, so what? Do we restrict information from articles because we don't think someone will be interested in it? Most articles are going to have some sections that garner more interest than others. Shall we delete those sections that we suspect are not of much "interest"?
  • Thirdly, even if this assertion is true, what harm is rendered from merging? Anyone looking for "Cleveland Rams" will get here with a redirect.
