What happened: The former Rams quarterback said every defensive look left him with a playmaker capable of scoring. He described working with Mike Martz as a chance to orchestrate a talent-rich offense.
Why it matters: The run produced a second title-game appearance in three seasons but ended short of another championship. That outcome left the celebrated offense with one title from its two trips.
By the numbers: The 2001 Rams finished 14-2. Their quarterback threw for 4,830 yards and 36 touchdowns with a 101.4 passer rating.
What to watch: Attention turns to the Rams' 2026 opener on Sept. 10.
