The 1995 St. Louis Rams season was the team's 58th year with the National Football League (NFL) and the first of 21 seasons in St. Louis. They started the season at Busch Memorial Stadium before their new venue, the Trans World Dome, opened mid-season. The Rams looked to start their tenure in St. Louis strong by improving on their 4âÂÂ12 record from 1994. In their first game in St. Louis, the Rams beat the New Orleans Saints, 17âÂÂ13, and ultimately got off to a 4âÂÂ0 start, leading the NFC West and looked poised to make a statement in the NFC. However, the team struggled later in the season. In week 8, the Rams were pounded, 44âÂÂ10, by the dominant 49ers in the last NFL game at Busch. Following this loss, the team could not recover, as they only won two more games for the remainder of the season, one of those being the inaugural game in the Dome. Ultimately, the Rams slumped to a 7âÂÂ9 record and missed the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season. This would be the only time between 1990 and 1998 the Rams did not finish a season with double-digit losses. This was also the Rams best finish until 1999 when they finished 13âÂÂ3 and went on to win that year's Super Bowl. This would also be NFL offensive linemen Jackie Slater's final season.
