News and Notes

Nov 24
QB Marc Bulger has a tibial plateau fracture in his left leg and will miss anywhere from three to six weeks. The previous week, it was reported that Bulger had banged his knees and since no one is able to pinpoint when the fracture occurred, it's possible it might have happened against the Saints. A tibial plateau fracture occurs on the top surface of the tibia or shin bone where it meets the knee. The injury can be more serious if there is displacement or if it affects the middle of the knee or on the inside because of the weight-bearing nature of the bone. The size of the fracture is also important. Coachh Steve Spagnuolo described the injury as "a hairline fracture" and it is likely that the injury is to the lateral or outside part of the knee. It isn't out of the question that Bulger could be OK to play in three weeks. It appears the Rams' plan is not to place Bulger on injured reserve, even though the team is currently 1-9. Kyle Boller will start Sunday against Seattle, with rookie sixth-round pick Keith Null the backup. |

Bulger completed 19 of 37 for 215 yards and an interception in Sunday's 21-13 loss to Arizona. Advice: Bulger underwent an MRI exam on his groin and hamstring Monday and was due for a second MRI on a swollen knee in addition to testing for concussion-related symptoms after a physically demanding loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Coach Steve Spagnuolo said the first MRI revealed a strain. The second MRI was set for late Monday and Bulger will be tested for a possible concussion Tuesday after taking a blow to the head in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 21-13 loss. |

Bulger threw for a season-high 298 yards, completing 26-of-40 passes with two touchdowns and one interception in Week 10 against the Saints. Recommendation: We have no idea where this came from but you can rest assured that the Rams and their fans are praying that the light stays on for Bulger. Both of his touchdown passes were to Donnie Avery. |
