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.
