I think I might pick up Green off of waivers. Or Maybe Trent Edwards.....he's been playing well.

Hmmmmmmm. Green or Edwards? Decisions, decisions.

Sure-Oz 09-23-2008 11:11 AM

Edwards easily....

Thanks for the info.... just picked him up. It's never good when a team rules a player out on Tuesday or call a knee injury week to week.

Precisely, Bulger does not like Saunders version of Martz's O. Bulger is fighting it and it definitely shows and Green knows this O PERIOD. Green has a death wish though. He will get killed or surprisingly spark this O.

The Rams are actually making an effort to get better????

Wow

I do think that Bulger is a bit overrated, don't get me wrong better than Green after his concussions and better than what we have, but still overrated none the less.

Green's last trip to Buffalo wasn't pretty as a Chief.

Sure-Oz 09-23-2008 11:40 AM

Please, Trent doesn't deserve this.

From ESPN:http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3604491

"Bulger completed only 52 of 89 attempts for 519 yards in this first three games, but pass protection has been the big problem. He's been sacked 11 times."

It's *only* 11 sacks because the Seahawks only got to Bulger one time last week...

One ESPN theory is that this might mean OC Saunders is the likely candidate to replace Linehan *when* he gets fired: http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nfcwest/0...-benching.html

"The Rams signed Green during the offseason because Green knew Saunders' offense and because Green is an experienced passer with established leadership skills.

The Rams need to protect Green, whose history of concussions makes him a high-risk starter. Green, 38, started every game for the Chiefs when Saunders was their offensive coordinator from 2001 to 2005. Green has passed for 27,950 yards and 162 touchdowns in 15 NFL seasons. His career passer rating is 86.9.

Bulger, 31, has two touchdown passes, two interceptions and a 73.2 rating in three starts this season. The Rams rank 31st in total offense, 31st in yards per pass and 32nd in third-down conversion rate. Opponents have outgained the Rams by 763 yards this season.

St. Louis has averaged only 9.7 points per game this season. Bulger wasn't the only problem, but management apparently wasn't ready to fire Linehan just yet."

If Trent had retired two years ago he'd have a cushy analyst job right now. He's spent the past two seasons ruining his reputation, and after this weekend, he may well end up a drooling vegetable.

Very sad.

You may be the only person in the world who jumped to that conclusion. Well, you and Trent's mom.

Hootie 09-23-2008 12:42 PM

dude please Trent, tear it up! I picked him up in my $$$ fantasy league for trade bait.

I always, ALWAYS, always thought Bulger was overrated.

That's just what I was thinking Fraz. I wondr how much playing for shitty teams has damaged his ability to get to TV when he is done. That's not to mention his health concerns. And he didn't do it for earthshattering contracts. I have to wonder why he didn't walk away when he was still regarded as a very good QB at the end of his career.
