Bulger back as starter

? Marc Bulger is the St. Louis Rams’ starting quarterback again in one of Jim Haslett’s first moves as their new coach. Backup Trent Green started Sunday’s 31-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills in Scott Linehan’s final game as coach. Bulger was back with the starters in practice Tuesday.

Haslett was elevated from defensive coordinator Monday. He says Bulger will be the starter the rest of the season. The winless Rams have a bye this week. Bulger will be losing one of his targets, tight end Randy McMichael, for perhaps the rest of the year. McMichael sustained a broken tibia Sunday, and Haslett said he’ll be out at least eight weeks.
