Background
Under Rich Brooks the team went 7-9 in 1995 and 6-10 in 1996, with Isaac Bruce its standout. Dick Vermeil arrived in 1997, the year the Rams traded up to draft Orlando Pace, but went 5-11 and 4-12. In 1999 Trent Green was lost in preseason and backup Kurt Warner, a former Arena League quarterback, threw 41 touchdowns as the offense scored 526 points; the Rams beat Tennessee 23-16 in Super Bowl XXXIV and Warner was its MVP. Vermeil then retired and Mike Martz took the team to Super Bowl XXXVI, a 20-17 loss to New England. Scott Linehan went 8-8 in 2006 and 3-13 in 2007, and Steve Spagnuolo's first team in 2009 won once in 16 games. After owner Georgia Frontiere died in January 2008, Stan Kroenke used his right of first refusal to buy the 60 percent he did not own, and NFL owners approved him on August 25, 2010.
