ST. LOUIS (AP) -Marc Bulger has thrown just three touchdown passes and has a passer rating of 68.2 for the scuffling St. Louis Rams.

Don't expect coach Steve Spagnuolo to change quarterbacks. He has been generally pleased with the 32-year-old quarterback.

Bulger hasn't had much help from his inexperienced crew of receivers. Laurent Robinson began the season as a favorite target but he's out for the rest of 2009 with an injury. Donnie Avery is now the go-to guy, but he's been hurt as well.

Bulger says the Rams have shown some improvement every week, culminating with Sunday's 17-10 at Detroit, snapping a 17-game skid.

The Rams (1-7) have a bye this weekend before hosting undefeated New Orleans on Nov. 15.
