Los Angeles Rams
The Los Angeles Rams are a professional American football team based in Los Angeles, California, which competes in the National Football League's NFC West division. The franchise has won three NFL championships, and is the only one to win championships representing three different cities (Cleveland in 1945, Los Angeles in 1951, and St. Louis in 1999). The Rams play their home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
1978 Dallas Cowboys season
There was a lot of bad blood between the Dallas Cowboys and the LA Rams prior to their '78 NFC Championship contest. Both the Cowboys and Vikings shared a common recent history of eliminating the LA Rams from the playoffs throughout the 1970s, consigning the Rams to being labeled, "next year's champions" for nearly a decade. So, when the undefeated (2-0) Dallas Cowboys traveled to Los Angeles to play the undefeated (2-0) Rams during week-3 of the 1978 regular season, the Rams not only wanted to win the game for a measure of revenge over the Dallas Cowboys, but also wanted to use a victory over last year's Super Bowl champions to make a statement to the rest of the league, "That the '78 season was the year the Rams finally win a championship".
