Bulger (right shoulder), Bruce (toe) and Holt (knee) all missed last week's win over New Orleans and it appears that none of them will be available on Sunday after each has missed practice throughout the week.

The one certainty: If they can win Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars (4-2), the Rams (3-4) can enter their bye week having recovered from a three-game losing streak and with most, if not all, of their injured stars ready to return. ``If you don't take care of today, there is no future,'' defensive lineman Tyoka Jac |

Fast Fact: Rams quarterback Jamie Martin's first career NFL start came on Dec. 13, 1998, as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Martin suffered a season- ending knee injury and the Jags lost, 16-13, to the Oilers.
