Linehan to be fired? Bills dismantle Rams 31-14
It didn’t look good early, but the Bills managed to stay undefeated on the 2008 season with a 31-14 victory over the still-winless St. Louis Rams.
Peter King of SI.com reported on Saturday that if the Rams were to lose, head coach Scott Linehan would be fired. Things looked promising for St. Louis early as they built a 14-6 halftime lead and headed into the fourth quarter up 14-13. But Jabari Greer intercepted Trent Green, who Linehan decided to start over Marc Bulger earlier this week, on a brutal pass attempt to start the fourth quarter and returned it 33-yards for a touchdown.
Buffalo then added a 39-yard Trent Edwards-to-Lee Evans touchdown and a 45-yard Rian Lindell field goal to put the game away midway through the fourth quarter. Edwards finished 15 of 25 for 197 yards and a touchdown.
It’ll be interesting to see whether or not the rumors were true and Linehan will get his walking papers following this defeat. The Rams are an absolute mess and clearly a dysfunctional team right now. If Linehan is fired, whoever takes over needs to earn the respect of the players fast or else things are going to unravel even more than they already have in St. Louis.
