Terrible news out of St. Louis has surrounded quarterback Sam Bradford. The former No. 1 overall draft pick recently tore his ACL in a preseason game against the Cleveland Browns, and he is expected to miss the entire season.

Shaun Hill will take over the starting role according to head coach Jeff Fisher.

Hill is a veteran quarterback who has been in the league since 2005. In 26 games started, Hill is 13-13 with 41 touchdowns and 23 interceptions. Hill hasn't started a game since 2010 with the Detroit Lions.

In Philadelphia, backup quarterback Mark Sanchez has been playing very well. Because of his play lately and Bradford's season-ending injury, rumors have swirled that the Rams could be interested in acquiring Sanchez before the regular season begins.

Sanchez has doubted any claim of a trade happening, saying, "I would think they would say something or my agent would say something. If those people aren't talking to me about it, I seriously doubt it's happening.”

It would be extremely difficult for a quarterback to come in and learn the system with so little time. The Rams open their season on Sept. 7 against the Minnesota Vikings. To bring in a quarterback from another team or via free agency would be a tricky situation because that quarterback wouldn't know the routes, plays, teammates or scheme.

Even though Sanchez was drafted No. 5 overall by the New York Jets, has started 62 games, and has a great playoff resume, it's obvious he loves the backup role. No quarterback has been more criticized in recent years than Sanchez, most in part due to the infamous "butt fumble." Sanchez as the starter for the Rams would be a recipe for disaster.

The Rams haven't made the playoffs since 2004. The harsh reality was, even with Sam Bradford playing a full season, they weren't going anywhere. In a division that features the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks, the San Francisco 49ers and the up-and-coming Arizona Cardinals, the Rams are the fourth best team no matter what.

Of course, the Eagles will listen to offers. This preseason has been great for the Eagles, because Sanchez has been playing very well. His stock has been rising, and other teams may put offers to the Eagles.

Although Sanchez has been playing well, he hasn't been doing it against the starters. Sanchez has mainly played against backups and third stringers throughout this preseason, so we can't get ahead of ourselves. The Eagles can also benefit by keeping Sanchez because he has shown he can run this hurry up offense.

The odds of Sanchez being traded is extremely low.
