Injury sidelines Rams' Warner
The Associated Press
ST.LOUIS - It'll be December before the St. Louis Rams, hurting with an 0-4 start, get their MVP quarterback back.
Kurt Warner will be sidelined 8-to-10 weeks with the pinkie on his throwing hand broken in two places, and will have surgery today.
"He's upset, he's very upset, but he understands," coach Mike Martz said. "There's nothing you can do about it."
The quarterback
Dr. Matt Matava, one of the Rams' orthopedic surgeons, said if everything goes well Warner will begin moving the finger in 3 1-2 to four weeks. The pins will come out after five weeks and X-rays will monitor the extent of the healing process during rehabilita-
The quarterback was injured in the first quarter of Sunday's 13-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Rams estimated Sunday he would be sidelined at least a month, but because this is a compound fracture the recovery period will be a lot longer.

Two years ago, Warner had surgery on the same broken finger on his right hand and missed five games. That time, two pins helped the fracture heal. This time, three pins will be inserted in

"The medical staff is going to have the final say because first and foremost his health is what's of our utmost concern," Matura said. "There is a risk that if
you go back too soon, even though you're feeling good, that you can re-crack the bone."
Matava said the earlier break was not a factor in Sunday's injury. In fact, he said the digit should have been stronger than before as a result of the procedure done in 2000 because the body typically adds healing bone.
"It is rare that you'd break the same bone on the same hand," Mataua said. "Unfortunately the
position he plays, his fingers are somewhat spread every time he throws the ball and then if he lands awkwardly, that little finger kind of sticks out to the side."
Warner was hit on a safety blitz by Roy Williams on a screen pass that was intercepted by the Cowboys' Greg Ellis with 8:52 to go in the first quarter, rolling over the hand on the artificial turf. That was Warner's eighth interception of the season, to go with a single touchdown pass.
Warner is 14th in the NFC and 25th in the NFL in passer rating at 66.4, even though he's completed 70.1 percent of his passes best in the conference.
Backup quarterback Jamie Martin's wife, Kelly, gave birth to the couple's second child Monday morning. Martz said Martin was supposed to come in and review game tape later in the dav.
Martin, who was 24-for-37 for 262 yards with a touchdown and an interception Sunday, will be making his second career start in nine NFL seasons Sunday at San Francisco.
