Today; Looker, Furrey Standing By...','According to Associated Press sports writer R.B. Fallstrom, if Isaac Bruces sprained ankle keeps him out Sunday, the St. Louis Rams are confident their passing attack wont be grounded.
Two players culled from the fringes of professional football, Dane Looker and Mike Furrey, both have emerged this season.

Furrey was starring for the New York Dragons and leading the Arena Football League with 108 catches for 1,574 yards and 46 touchdowns before signing with the Rams in April. Hes been a favorite of Martz ever since.
