History

Historical Context

In 1999 the St. Louis Rams, with offensive coordinator Mike Martz and quarterback Kurt Warner, scored a franchise-record 526 points using an under-center, high-tempo play-action attack that won Super Bowl XXXIV. The Philadelphia Eagles’ recent offensive-coordinator hire seeks to revive that same scheme, hoping to boost scoring and reshape the NFC East by 2026.
