    Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo was careful to leave no room for doubt. "If we played a game today," he declared Thursday, "A.J. (Feeley) would be our quarterback." That was hardly a revelation. Feeley is well-versed in the offensive scheme that coordinator Pat Shurmur imported from Philadelphia, Feeley's home for six of his 10 NFL seasons. Conversely, rookie Sam Bradford's pro experience consists of five practices at rookie minicamp and two during organized team activities this week at Rams Park. But make no mistake: The Rams didn't spend the No. 1 overall pick in last month's draft - and eventually millions of dollars - on Bradford so that he could back up a 33-year-old journeyman who hasn't taken a regular-season snap since 2007. "It's inevitable that this is going to be Sam's team," Feeley conceded. "When that time comes ... who knows right now?" It could be awhile. Spagnuolo doesn't simply dole out starting jobs to rookies.

    You mean the 18 - FAIL Pats.:icon_cheesygrin:

    And for the best interest of Bradford, Feeley should be the starter for the whole season, no matter how bad.
