Bulger to start this week for 0-6 Rams
Monday, October 15, 2007
ST. LOUIS (AP) St. Louis Rams quarterback Marc Bulger, who missed the last two games with two broken ribs, said Monday he plans to return to the lineup this week.
Backup Gus Frerotte threw five interceptions and lost a fumble in Sunday's 22-3 loss at Baltimore, which kept the Rams (0-6) winless. St. Louis' start matches the worst in franchise history in 1962, when the team finished 1-12-1 as the Los Angeles Rams.
Bulger pointed out he didn't take himself out of the lineup two weeks ago. Now he believes he owes it to his teammates to get back in there.
"Yeah, I'm playing," Bulger said. "I'm ready now after standing around for two weeks. They definitely feel a little better, but I haven't been hit.
Doesnt help when your missing, Steusie, Romberg, Pace, Setterstrom, Brown all on the offensive line. Then our recievers for most of last weeks game were Holt, Hagans and Brand Frekin Williams. Damn injuries!
Does anyone else think they can get back on track? I don't think they will make the playoffs but if they get SJax back heathly, then maybe they won't have a top 10 pick. Maybe they could make the playoffs but they would need to go on a winning streak to get back in the race.
No unfortunatly. Too many injuries right now. Usually injuries aren't an excuse, but now it just getting rediculous. I say we pull 3 or 4 wins out of the hat.

2. Orlando Pace – Out for the Season
3. Mark Setterstrom – Out for the Season
4. Adam Goldberg – Out for the Season

6. Raonall Smith – Out for the season
