For the first time in three and a half weeks since breaking his finger taking a snap, Rams quarterback Marc Bulger got under center for the first time and while he was a little apprehensive, he came away from practice feeling he was ready to start.

His finger didn’t hurt, but it wasn’t 100% healed either.  "I wouldn’t say no discomfort. It was bearable. It’s not going to affect whether I can get the ball which is a good thing."  Bulger said the coaching staff has other thoughts, his plan is to start Sunday in Seattle. 

That’s not to say that he didn’t have an fumbled exchange at center, but head coach Steve Spanuolo liked what he saw.    "I thought he looked good throwing the ball. I mean again, I had an eyeball on him a couple of plays and didn’t see any ill effects. The one snap, he dropped one out here, but we had changed centers and he wasn’t aware of that, so I don’t think it was anything that had to do with the finger I think it was just the change in centers."
