The Rams fumbled away their season in a 34-7 loss to the Baltimore
Colts. Los Angeles fumbled six times, including twice near the
Baltimore goal line, and had four passes intercepted.

Del Shofner dropped a pass at the Baltimore 1-yard line and Tom
Wilson fumbled at the 2. Both mistakes were brutal since the Colts only
blew open the game in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Rams 21-0.

    Keith,
    This caught my attention because John Unitas was a Univ. of Louisville grad and continutes to be a genuine icon here. There’s a large bronze statue of him outside the football complex. Did you know he played defensive back as well as QB in college? There’s grainy black and white film to prove it. But–here’s that old rub: is there any way to include ‘the rest of the story’? And that story about the Bears: I could’ve sworn Zeke Bratkowski played back-up QB for the Packers. And I think he’s from my home town, Danville, IL. I met him once on a golf course up there when I was a kid and visiting relatives . Big guy.
