Marc Bulger will start on Sunday; news from the Jags locker room
This just in. The St. Louis Rams announced that Marc Bulger will be their starting QB on Sunday against us:
The QB question has been answered. The St. Louis Rams will start QB Marc Bulger against Jacksonville in week 6. Kyle Boller has a concussion, a mild one, but Bulger will get the nod anyway, as long as he can practice injury-free this week.
OT Jason Smith is closer to a return, and some of the other lingering injuries players are dealing with seem to be moving in the right direction. SS James Butler is day to day. I'd really like to see this guy get back on the field, though Craig Dahl has done well filling in for Butler. CB Justin King might miss time with a bruise on his knee, or he might not.
Take a look at some of the positive things Spagnuolo commented on. One of them, offensive line play, was kind of an underrated plus this week. Alex Barron rebounded after his benching last week. I still don't see the Rams running through Jacob Bell much on the stat sheet, and that bothers me.WR Tim Carter is back.
After yesterday's blowout, and the fact that sadly the Jaguars are lacking to rush the passer, I don't know if I'm happy or not with this news. Our old freind (and my mentor) Vic ketchman said recently in "Jaguars Monday", that after watching the Rams against Minnesota yesterday (plus how the team played) it might be not a easy W as we might think now. I saw them against the 49ers just a week ago. They were awfull on offense (besides poor Stephen Jackson) and showed some signs on defense-James Laurinaitis might be such a threat what Aaron Curry were on Sunday. I hope he Rams will be the perfect candidate for bouncing back, but after yesterday I'm not sure on anything a bit.
Other news: Today in the jaguars locker room, Mike Sims-Walker and Quentin Groves apologized before the whole team after what they did on the weekend. Groves are fought with his tears, witnesses told (Vic said Groves panicked because he thought he would be late for the plane, and that caused most likely the accident) I hope the Jaguars can be unite as a team again on Sunday. And maybe this bitter experience will do good in the short and specially on the long way.
We have a rough week, but I think this defeat actully bring us back on track-this is a team in a rebuilding, with major problems (pass-rush; both lines just to name a few) and trying to bounce back from the horrible player selection on the Shack Harris era. We will see defeats (I hope not so big as yesterday) but the arrow still signs up.
Just be patient!
(PS: And for everything was happened yesterday blame me and my battle teal T-shirt incident, instead of Jack and his team)

Well what your view about Bulger
Getting old like Collins lately, or just no O-line?

I did
They were horrible against the 49ers on Week 4.
They looked like the way the Jaguars looked yesterday….

Yeah
I mean, 5 catches for 87 yards and a touchdown in week 5 is a “no factor” right…

I saw the 49ers game
where the Rams were shotout. In that game, Avery was horrible

I Believe You
I’m just saying he can make plays if you let him.

Kyle Boller great?
Even Marc Bulger is better than Kyle Boller, and that’s saying something.
Donnie Avery is very inconsistent. He’s not a playmaker.
The Jags should beat the Rams. The Rams are beyond atrocious.
He would be the starting QB
for the Baltimore even today, if he would be a good QB. They lost a 1st round QB pick, just like us.

Heh...
after that flogging we took, I’m not taking anything for granted. Seattle brought a guy off their practice squad and we still couldn’t get a sack… they didn’t have their #1 pass rusher and still got 5 sacks. Only sure way Jaguars won’t lose is if the Rams miss the plane to Jacksonville. That being said… I do expect them to be primed and ready for this game after that loss, but again I’m more worried about how they’ll look after the bye against the Titans. Hey… the Falcons came off the bye and murdered the 49ners, but we aren’t the Falcons though…
In the face of adversity, what you do from then on dictates who you really are...
