We can go back and forth all we want, but since the LA Rams of the 70's, we haven't had anywhere close the success we had when Mike was here. I simply don't understand the bad rap.

But Barry Switzer didnt design the offense or the defense. He just took over. Not the same thing.
The Rams won with offense, and it was his offense

The design/sculpting of the offense goes to the second paragraph in my post -- the innate ability part. Martz had innate ability. I'm not claiming BS had any NFL level abilty.
