Marc Bulger received medical clearance to play Tuesday as the St. Louis Rams' quarterback carousel turned again.

Bulger, who has been at quarterback for all five Rams victories this season, has been out since Nov. 18 with a sprained ligament between his index and third finger. He's made progress the last several days and will replace Jamie Martin, who was ineffective in Sunday's 49-10 loss at Kansas City, for this week's game against the Cardinals.

If the Rams suddenly go on another winning streak with Bulger playing, I bet you hear a lot of calls for trading Warner!!!

That's so true AWM. LOL--them Rams sure have problems with their QB's fingers. Maybe Martz has a hammer hiddin' under his desk for when they step out of line.

Coach Mike Martz suggested for the first time Wednesday that if Marc Bulger continues to play as well as he has, he could compete with Kurt Warner next season for St. Louis Rams' quarterback job.

Bulger has a 106.0 passer rating, which would lead the NFL if he had enough attempts, and is 5-0 as a starter this year -- the Rams' only victories. The third-stringer when the season began, he returns to the lineup on Sunday night against Arizona after recovering from a sprained right index finger.
