But it's all Bulger's fault, and any success he's had, (backed up by his stats), is the result of those around him, and his coaches and/or the sysyem. But the Rams' failure is his and his alone.

It is so patently ridiculous an argument that I am literally at a loss trying to figure out what kind of reasoning could lead anyone to that conclusion.
I'd be interested in seeing if anyone can come up with one of those "presence" QB's who single handedly willed his team to real success despite a horrible defense and a grossly ineffective OL, but I won't hold my breath.

Speaking of "presence" QB's, Kurt Warner, who I will always admire, performed his magic in '99 behind an OL that was among the league leaders in fewest sacks allowed and with the support of the NFL's 4th ranked defense. Oops, once again those stats rear their ugly heads.
