Legendary head coach Chuck Knox passes away
On Sunday, the National Football League lost one of its finest former head coaches, and the man that led the team that may have been the Minnesota Vikings’ greatest rival during the 1970s.
Chuck Knox, who coached the Los Angeles Rams, the Buffalo Bills, and the Seattle Seahawks in his head coaching career, passed away on Sunday at the age of 86.
Knox was the coach of the Rams twice, as he led the team from 1973 to 1977 and then again to end his coaching career from 1992 to 1994. During his initial five-year stretch with the Rams, they won the NFC West every season. More impressive was that they won those five straight division titles with five different primary quarterbacks.
