He hasn't made his team better so it's fair, BUT........he's also forever going to be compared to the man he replaced, so he's screwed in that sense.
But I'd give anything for Bulger to prove me wrong this year and silence all of doubters.............but being the doubter I am, I don't think it's likely.

You have noticed the performance of the Rams defense the last several years, right? And the performance of the offensive line? Just how do you think Bulger should overcome those major issues? He's doing his part, bottom line. The rest of the team has to do theirs before there's any talk of an NFC Championship appearance. It doesn't matter who's under center, no NFL QB is going to lead his team deep into the playoffs with a defense ranked at the bottom of the heap and a line that ranks at the top of the heap in giving up sacks, that's the reality.
