As the story goes, Vermeil wanted Mike White as his offensive coordinator and Jeff Hostetler as his quarterback. He got Mike Martz and Trent Green instead, with the help of some arm-twisting from team management."

Meanwhile, Carl continues to let his head coaches hire who they want...

According to my roomate who's a die hard Rams fan, DV wanted to draft Curtis Enis (former Chicago Bears RB bust) instead of trading away that pick to Indy for Marshall Faulk.


The front office with John Shaw (who's underrated in my opinion) was primarily responsible for the Greatest Show on Turf, not DV
