    Jackson Rips Benching of Bulger

    PFT:
    JACKSON RIPS BENCHING OF BULGER

    Posted by Michael David Smith on September 26, 2008, 10:52 a.m.
    Rams coach Scott Linehan benched quarterback Marc Bulger this week in a desperate attempt to turn things around for the worst team in the league.
    But not everyone in the Rams’ locker room thinks Linehan made the right move in going with Trent Green.
    Rams running back Steven Jackson said in a radio appearance Thursday that benching Bulger was the “wrong decision.”
    “He’s our general,” said Jackson, who added that he has nothing against Green — he just doesn’t think you give a quarterback like Bulger a $60 million contract, as the Rams did last year, to sit him on the bench.
    And, in perhaps the worst news of all for Linehan, Jackson said he thinks Bulger is so mad that even if Linehan were to change his mind again, Bulger might simply be unwilling to play. Jackson added that he knows he has teammates who agree with him that Linehan has botched the quarterback situation.
    “I’m not the only one who feels this way,” Jackson said.
    The situation in St. Louis is a mess.

    Re: Jackson Rips Benching of Bulger

    Im loving it. This is the crap I wanted to see Monday.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all     true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can     mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

      I guess it doesn't matter when your coach is going to get canned on Monday morning anyways.

        Sounds like mutiny in progress over there. Good stuff.

            true, a cornered animal is dangerous. But fortunately for us, this animal is like a ferret, not a wild dog, and will have to get lucky and nibble the s*** out of us to win this fight.

            cant say it wont happen, but they are very unfocused on their supposed "throwing all they got"-at-us game.

                  There coach was hated by the owner but form what i heard the players generally liked kiffin. Here we have the players against the coach much different imo.

                    This is just more evidence that we have absolutely no excuse to lose this game. Enough with this cornered animal nonsense. So now that this team is unhappy with their coach and don't believe in him, they are going to play harder for him? What a joke this Rams team is.

                      Unfortunately (in this case) I think you're correct.

                      This is still a young Bills team,a nd we've yet to see how they handle being the clear-cut better team (favorite), especially on the road.

                      HOpefully Jauron keeps them focused.. Its easy to look ahead if you been reading to many clippings.

                        Plus the Raiders actually have some talent on their team. They would probably smoke the Rams too. The Raiders probably aren't a good team, but teams like the Rams and Chiefs are down another level.

                          A team with Torry Holt at WR, Steven Jackson at RG, and either Trent Green or Marc Bulger throwing the rock could still get itself together and put some points up.

                          This is the NFL -- as last week's Miami/Patriots game should have demonstrated to everyone, the talent is close enough that if a team takes a week off, they can get burned by anyone.

                          If we show up ready to do business and don't take anything for granted, we're going to win this game. If we come out like we did against the Raiders, it's very lose-able.
                          Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

                            We caught the Raiders "being cornered and getting pissed", and fighting for their coaches Kiffin's job,

                            St. Louis sounds a team ready to mutiny on Scott Linehan, and would be happy to see him gone on monday. If that's the case it is a different dynamic than what we faced last Sunday.

                              The situation with Lane Kiffin is that his team played hard for him. Plus Al Davis has lost his mind literally.

                              Scott Linehan coaching flat out stinks. Jim Hasslet will be the interim coach for the Rams next week.


                              The Rams players have quit minus one Rookie WR.
