Head coach Scott Linehan's decision will not alter the course of what promises to be a truly dismal season for St. Louis.
In fact, the move is most likely the last desperate act by a desperate man who just might be coaching his last game of the Rams, who are 0-3 and have been out-scored 29-116 this season.
This, after going 3-13 last year. St. Louis is 11-24 during Linehan's brief tenure, going steadily downhill since an 8-8 campaign in his first year at the helm.
But the Rams have steadily sunk – and stunk -- since then, and now the head coach is under fire from fans and been put on notice by owner, Chip Rosenbloom.
Granted, Bulger has not looked good this season, throwing only two touchdown passes in three games. He completed 18 of 31 for 184 yards, one TD and a pick in last week's 37-13 loss to the battered Seattle Seahawks.
But I contend that no one would have looked good behind that awful St. Louis offensive line. Bulger has been sacked 11 times this season and 97 times in his past 31 starts It's hard to be an effective passer while laying flat on your back.
So now, it is the 38-year-old Green's turn to become the human tackling dummy for the sorry Rams when they host Buffalo this week. Good luck, Trent. You're going to need it.
