St.Louis Is Drowning: Please Save Them Marc Bulger....

It was not long ago Marc Bulger was the most under-rated quarterback in the NFL. Bulger took the realm over Kurt Warner in 2003 with a perfect 6-0 record from the previous year from filling in for an injured Jamie Martin. 

Bulger lead the Rams to a divisional championship with a 12-4 record and a passer rating of 81.4 combined with a completion percentage of 63.2%. The Rams lost in the divisional round of the playoffs to the Carolina Panthers in double overtime. Marc Bulger would be selected to the Pro Bowl and awarded MVP of the game. 

Unfortunatley, he has not gotten close to another 12-4 record. In the last two seasons, the Rams have had only 5 wins and 27 losses. It's obvious "The Greatest Show on Turf" is no longer alive.

The Rams and Bulger came to an agrrement in the 2008 offseason; a six-year contract worth over sixty million dollars. He will more than likely be a Ram for the rest of his career.

The Million dollar question is, what do the Rams have to do to get the 2004 version of Marc Bulger back? It's pretty simple, just have the offensive line give him enough time to breathe in the pocket. In the 2008 season, he was sacked 38 times and 37 times in the previous season. If you give Bulger time to look at the field, he will find an open receiver, they have future hall of famer wide reciever Torry Holt, let him get the ball. The Rams need to get the current Offensive line coach, Steve Loney, out and someone else who will send a jolt through the players bodies in.

Whatever the Rams are going to do, they need to do it fast because the NFC West is not waiting for them. The 49ers are showing more and more progress every year and the Arizona Cardinals are making a run in the playoffs after winning their first home playoff game since 1947. When life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Don't let all the talent you have go to waste St.Louis.
