ST. LOUIS, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- Marc Bulger tossed three touchdown passes Sunday to lead the St. Louis Rams to a 34-24 win over the Green Bay Packers.

Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre, who was making his first appearance in St. Louis since his nightmare performance in a January 2002 divisional playoff game, dropped to just 10-20 in domes.

The Rams converted four Green Bay turnovers into 17 points and were never seriously threatened after opening a 14-3 lead in the first period.

Dane Looker gave the Rams a 28-17 lead with 4:14 left in the third quarter with a 20-yard scoring reception, tiptoeing along the left sideline.

Jeff Wilkins tacked on two field goals in the fourth period before the Packers got a late score on a 76-yard touchdown run by Najeh Davenport.
