It should be merged to the History of the St. Louis Rams article because I feel it is not notable enough for its own article. Grand Armor (talk) 05:55, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - notable enough to still be discussed 16 years later (Baskin, Ben (May 23, 2017). "How Mike Martz and The Greatest Show on Turf kicked off an NFL revolution". Sports Illustrated. ). If it referred to one season than a redirect would warrant, but since it is three specific seasons, that won't work. Of the group nicknames from Category:Nicknamed groups of sportspeople, I feel this one is definitely one that should stay. WikiVirusC(talk) 15:58, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - The article discusses three-years of football. There are plenty of sources available on the internet that offer in-depth commentary, including Encyclopedia Britannica, FiveThirtyEight, ESPN to name a few. The article already discusses Faulk, Bruce, Warner, and Holt along with Mike Martz's ideology and impact on the game. The article needs work for sure, but I feel there a plenty of RS to establish notability of and offer substainlal commentary on the Rams during this era. -- StarScream1007 ►Talk 03:45, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
