R.B. Fallstrom reminded readers the head coach Mike Martz has considered yanking Marc Bulger in each of the last two games. Its a potential controversy lost on his young quarterback.
Bulger isnt wasting time worrying when or if two-time NFL MVP Kurt Warner, who led the Rams to Super Bowls in 1999 and 2001, will be warming up on the sideline.
