1999 Week 5 49ers vs Rams Highlights 

I wish anyone under 25 that's a football fan could understand how important this game was. The 49ers had beaten the Rams 16 straight times and most of the games were absolute blowouts. The 49ers owned the Rams in a way I've never seen one team own another team. They even deep sixed the first season the Rams were in St. Louis. The Rams hosted the 49ers at Busch Stadium having started 5-1. 49ers beat them 44-10 and it wasn't even THAT close. Just a soul crushing ass whoopin'. So when this game happened, even without Steve Young, the 49ers were absolutely confident they could win. And why not? Except...in many ways, this game marked a pivot in both franchises. The 49ers went in to decline and the Rams rose to be one of the elite teams in the sport.

Looking back at these games it was amazing how accurate and quick Warner was to make decisions and simply stand in that pocket and deliver.. The talent on this team, Just WOW..

In my view, this was the watershed game for the 1999 St. Louis Rams. At the time, nobody expected the team to be off to the start they were on. This game against the 49ers put Kurt Warner and Co. on the map.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a prettier, smooth, gliding runner like as Isaac Bruce.

The 1999-2001 Rams offense may have been the greatest in NFL history. It's too bad the Rams, as a team, didn't close the deal in SB 36 in the start of the Patriots dynasty.

This is the game we knew our Rams were for real. Thanks for sharing. The Dome was rocking!

That Ram team was something very special. Changed the whole nfl

Ill never forget Tim McDonald's BIG MOUTH before the game saying "Same Old Rams"....Yeah Tim, they mopped the floor with you!!

Absolutely everyone on this team was fast. Offense, defense, special teams. Just overwhelming speed. And when you add Warner's accuracy to it. *chef's kiss*

Rams fan since 1972. This was my favorite regular season game EVER.

Bill Walsh, who was then serving as the 49ers' GM, told the media after this game that the Rams would win the Super Bowl that year if they stay healthy. It seemed kind of like ridiculous hyperbole at the time, and/or that he was covering up for his team getting shellacked, but proved to be prophetic.

I remember a profound moment in this game in the second half. I could see Isaac Bruce on the bench in the second half having an emotional breakdown or the positive kind. I believe the Rams had lost more than 10 games in a row to the 49ers, and it finally hit Isaac that his team not only was a contender, but was also going to decisively hammer the 49ers.

Daniel, please continue to load more highlights of any of the Rams seasons with K. Warner. I believe, his story will never be matched. This guy is like a superheroe to me

The Greatest show on turf was officially born this day

Greatest offense in NFL HISTORY!!!!!!

the speed on this team offense defense and special teams

i remember watching thus as a kid and being shocked how bad they got beat. i knew young was out but thought we could still have a chance. this was the end of the 49ers dominance that spanned from 81-98 i'd say this game ended that.

Any thoughts of the 49ers regaining the NFC West division title went out the window after this game. The new division boss had arrived with the '99 Rams.

I like how a lot of things didn't even go the Rams' way in this game, and they still CRUSHED em. I'm not even a Rams fan and I loved this team. They just aired it out all day long and dared other teams to beat them.

Watching these highlights got me so fired up for Isaac Bruce. The fact that he was the one to go off on the 49ers this game was everything.

Wow! The look on the niners players and coaches. Shell shocked!!

Greatest Show On Turf , that was a magic year!

Damn, the 49ers saw a ray of hope after scoring 10 points to come within 8, then the Rams pulls to wool over their eyes when Horne’s Kick Return TD. 35-20

After the game Vermeil said "same old 49ers"

Here's a memory i cherish. Yea i remember all the 49eer fans talking that "same old rams" thing. Issac Bruce had never won against the 9eers. Hed caught 4 tds that day and was overcome with emotion, happy emotions, relief, satisfaction, and [roof that the Rams had indeed arrived and this was gonna be our year.

I was 7 during this season, never saw this game specifically, but this definitely the year I fell in love with the game and Rams nation. #GSOT

McVay needs to put some OT on these tapes. These wide receiver routes are just insane and Warner's throws are just dimes my goodness.

This was the game that cemented the Rams as the Super Bowl favorites during the 99 season.

7:42 that fan on the left side of the screen sums up what the fans was going they could not believe what they was seeing.

Another great classic

every time they cut back to Mariucci after a Rams score he looks legit spooked

thank you so much for putting this up!

This game was a lot of fun, one of my favorites over the 9ers. Before the game a lot of people were wondering if the Rams would fold up again vs SF after putting together wins at the beginning of the season like they did in the past. The 9ers and their damn fans were surely expecting it, and it was great to hand them a much deserved beating. Then they said "wait till we get you at home" and then later got another beating. Season sweep!

Dammmmmmmmn Daniel! You are the man!

The big difference the '98 Rams and the '99 Rams besides Kurt Warner was Marshall Faulk. That offense became truly dangerous with the addition of Faulk.

Jerry Rice finally got a taste of how the other half lives. Not so fun when you don't have elite quarterback play.

Daniel, I ll be on the look out for more of your videos. Thanks my friend

Bob and Weave!!! Every team that wins a championship and hasn't for a while has that game or moment when they exercise the demons!!!! This was that game for the St. Louis Rams and us fans!!!

Hell yes. I missed this entire season when I was in college and found out like 3 months after they won the Super Bowl. This is the first time I ever saw that game. Super cool post thanks

That was interesting. I lived in St. Louis during this era. Some of my favorite memories as a stl fan were because of this team and later the cardinals. Warner was accurate and fearless and Bruce and Holt could fly on that turf and stop on a dime. And Faulk was great. It felt revolutionary to me because I’d never seen such a dominant football team. I didn’t get to see the 49ers in the early 90s I was too young.

Thank you for posting this!

I remember drafting Trent Green in about the 8th round of the '99 Fantasy season. When he went down, I picked up Warner when he was named the starter. Just as a back up at first for whoever else I had (I don't remember), but then started him from the 2nd week on. I also had drafted Faulk in the 2nd round and knew the Rams would score a little more, but had no idea this year would happen. Those two guys alone help me win over $1000 that fall. Never felt smarter in my life... :)

I attended this game after getting free tix from a guy I worked with that wasn't able to go. Warner and Company were unstoppable. They could have scored 70 points if they wanted to, but called off the dogs and went conservative with their offense in the 2nd quarter after going up 21-3.

It’s amazing how accurate Warner was that season.

As a fan of the rams in 99 I wanted them to punch it in at the end instead of taking a knee because the niners had beaten us down in something like 18 straight games in a row.

Horn takes from the 4....and he's going out the door lol! The Rams were going pedal to the metal in every asset of the game in this game!

Hi Daniel, as long as the vids are from the rams, any video will look fine, especially if the y are from the 1999 season. do you have the game against the Giants from that season?

The 49ers starting to go downhill in 1999 due to Steve Young's career-ending injury.

I remember this game well. At the time it was my super bowl. Finally beating them.

Laughing just like i did in 1999 watching this greatest show Right when the niners thought they were close HORNE TOOK IT TO THE HOUSE WOW WOW WOW GREAT GREAT MEMORIES

Mike Martz would have punched that ball in the end zone at the end of that game.

"Horn...takes it at the 4...Horn's got a huge hole..he's going out the door" lol

My uncle and I were season pass holders probably my favorite game of the season 49ers had won 17 games in a row. This day this year and several more the Rams owned the 49ers. It’s always good when the shoe is on the other foot. The look on the 49ers during the game lmao they were panicking and didn’t know what to do. As a former player I would have hated to play the Greatest Show on Turf you couldn’t stop them. I had a brilliant defensive coach in high school he said you could double cover any receiver and try to bottle up Marshall Faulk someone was going to score a TD.

Just wish that team stayed together , I picked up the rams when bulger was qb smh matrz

I LOVE THE LOOK ON MARIUCCIS face Especially after rejecting him years before

This game will get you pumped!

The 99 tams were 1st offensively. 3rd defensively . They are the fastest team I've yet to see on a field ever to date. This hane was the one that finally out the league on the cry baby niners on notice. Nobody expected the rams to come out hot. So when this game came everyone 5houvht their hot start was a fluke luck etc . But when they beat that ass after losing to the niners 9 years in a row the entire world finally noticed ok the rams are for real.

"They thought that it was going to be the Same Old Sorry Rams that they were playing. We unleashed on them. I'll never forget the look that they had on offense. I can remember Jerry Rice - and the great player that he is - looking like 'Oh my God, I can't believe these guys are serious.' Yeah, we are. I don't care who you are, Jerry. I don't care how great you are. I don't care about your Super Bowls or your rings. It's our time." -D'Marco Farr, America's Game documentary.

The Rams were merciful to the Niners in the end. But they blew them out again later on!!!

They were unstoppable back then.

That 99 swagger

So wild watching these back to back. The first two home games the crows was pretty tame between plays. Must have thought the Rams had two good games. Coming into Week 5 being 3-0 after the game they had against the Bengals, the home crowd realized they have some special right in front of them. Now the crowd is getting rowdy!

It be nice knowing if the LA Rams can play like this against the Niners in this era, it'll be a fucking good feeling 😂

Rest in peace Lawrence Phillips

It was DEFINITELY real !!!!!!! Loved it !!

I was raised in redwood city California, maaaaaan going to school the next day and finally being able to brag about a win against the b**** a** niners was special to me, even though everybody, teachers included brushed me off as just a lucky streak, I was 9 back then

Warner one of the best quarterback's ever.👍👍

I remember this 99 rams like it was yesterday. Week 1 vs the Ravens nobody care just like me because both teams were not good. Week 3 vs the NFC Champs Falcons, WTF is going on with Atlanta? Week 4 vs the Bengals. Its the sorry Bengals no one cares. Then against my 49ers. HOLY S--- THIS RAMS TEAM is serious.

1999 was a great year for the Rams.

Az-Zahir Hakim was giving Rams fans a preview of how he'd kill the dynasty.

If the 14 or 15 Niner players (yes, I'm exaggerating.. a little) who touched that fumble on the punt had actually bothered to fall on it, who knows, maybe the outcome would have been different. Late 90's 49ers.. pathetic drafting throughout that time (Owens aside)...led to the dumpster fire that they were until 2012, and of course didnt learn from their mistakes, and are still a dumpster fire.

This game marked the changing of the guard as this would be the first of six straight wins and 7 of the next 8 games that the Rams would win against the 49ers who had beaten them 17 straight times and 19 of 20 going back to week 15 of the classic Monday Night comeback when the Niners overcame a 24-10 and 27-17 deficits to win 30-27 than a month later the Niner beat the Rams 30-3 in the NFC Championship on their way to repeat and win their fourth Super Bowl of the '80s. In fact, the 49ers would win 12 straight road games vs the Rams either at Anaheim Stadium in Anaheim/Bush Memorial Stadium/Trans World/Edward Jones Dome in St.Louis between 1987-1998. As for the St.Louis Rams, they would begin a stretch where they would go (10-2) in their next 12 games against the 49ers from 1999-2004. Then the 49ers would go (11-3-1) in their next 15 games between 2005-2013 than between 2014-18 both teams would split a pair three times then the Niners would sweep the Rams in '16 then the Rams swept the Niners in'18 and at press time from 2019-present the 49ers have now beaten the Rams five straight times and has beaten the Rams in series sweeps three times in the last six years. This 49ers Rams rivalry had its share of great games and great players and coaches since the series begin in 1950.

The Rams could sure use Tony Horne for kick returns now.

Loved Vermeil passion. "Thats Horse shit!!!"

This is the "not the same, sorry Rams" game.

The lost art of the Pump Fake!!...

Even if Steve Young played in this game the 49ers would not have won

Was that a barefoot kicker?

Is that Ray Bentley announcing?

Because they hadn't had a winning season in 9 years the preseason the odds on the Rams to win the Superbowl were 200:1. That was down to 20:1 when they were 4-0 before this game. I knew if they beat the Niners the odds would drop far lower so I bet $100 them at 20:1 and thus won 2 grand on the Superbowl.

Yes!!!!!

This is what real football looks like

This was the beginning of the end for the 69ers of San Francisco..😎🐒🐲🚽

6:54 - Ned Flanders on the right

I never seen Dick Vermeil so upset and it wasn't like the niners even had a chance that day

I wanna know if anyone else is here cuz we play the niners in the NFC Championship

do the 2002 Rams victory games I niss that season

Why they got to roast my man garcia like that for? This aint the CFL 😂😂

The Rams definitely were the better team that year no doubt about it but as I've been saying for years Stacy came to be one hit wonders cuz after they won the Super Bowl that year they never did anything or won a championship since

Damn I ain't heard some of these names and years Charlie Garner drafted by my Eagles,,,, A.z Hakeem

The San Francisco coach like, what had happened was?

Highlights shouldn't be 25 minutes long.

Down 21-10, the Niners get a MUCH NEEDED turnover and fail to take advantage of it.

NINERS LIKE WTF?!?!

Called 'Getting Madden'd'

Imagine if Mike Martz adapted his offense to be mostly shotgun. give Warner more time for these routes.

Can’t defend what you can’t catch.

19:00...WHO!?!?

Back when the 49ers had no answer for us. Lol

if you look at it kurt had very short career with rams only 3 great seasons ..
