IRVING, Texas — To say that coach Scott Linehan is exasperated over the Rams’ 0-4 start would be a monstrous understatement. Normally restrained and unflustered, Linehan bit off his words during a moderately contentious session with reporters after Sunday’s 35-7…

The Rams tried to compete with the Cowboys. They really did.

Their defense held tough for most of the first half. Safety O.J. Atogwe picked off another pass. Dante Hall returned a punt for a touchdown.

The offense was able to move…

Hello, garbage time!

There  was not much  Gus Frerotte could do with the remainder of this fiasco. Running back  Travis Minor got some reps in place of  Brian Leonard and Dane Looker got on the field as well, spelling Isaac Bruce.

Claude Terrell is right back where he started with the Rams. That is, left guard. In practice this week, Terrell has been in the spot previously occupied by Mark Setterstrom, who suffered a season-ending knee injury Sunday vs. Tampa Bay.…

An interesting give-and-take is taking place between coach Scott Linehan and quarterback Marc Bulger over what arguably was the most crucial play Sunday in the Rams’ 24-3 loss at Tampa Bay - a third-quarter interception in the end zone thrown…
