The former St. Louis Rams starting quarterback Marc Bulger was signed by the Baltimore Ravens last week as an unrestricted free agent. While it was taken as addition of a more threatening weapon, adding such an experienced veteran quarterback also showed the Ravens’ intention to win a title in the new season.
Such conclusion was supported by another report on Ravens’ plan to use Bulger as a backup for Joe Flacco. Just think if the Vikings quarterback in No.4 Brett Favre jersey will return to backup Tarvaris Jackson, what a team the Vikings will be. The veteran will not only help the younger quarterback to improve but also offers the team a great insurance.
"I don't want to be the guy that comes in here and thinks I know it all and put too much on him," Bulger, wearing his favorite Archie Manning jersey, said on a conference call on July 15. "I'm going to let Joe let me know how much input he wants me to give.”
At age 33, Bulger knows well he may have less strong arm than a younger quarterback, so he is glad to be paid $3.8 million to backup a talented young starter. He was never a Favre style of quarterback and always knows where he should be at different times.
