St. Louis Rams Building Passing Games
ST. LOUIS (AP)--Sam Bradford can't help but be excited about the St. Louis Rams' passing attack.

After two seasons with some of the least impressive receivers in the league, the third-year quarterback sees his options increasing with each week. His current favorite target is rookie Chris Givens, who had a season-best 11 receptions in a 16-13 overtime victory against San Francisco on Sunday.

Givens' performance against the 49ers helped ease the loss of Danny Amendola, sidelined with a foot injury.

Eight players have double-digit receptions for the Rams. Brian Quick, a rookie, has seen limited action with just eight receptions but leads the team with an average of 17.3 yards per catch.

St. Louis (5-6-1) travels to Buffalo (5-7) on Sunday.
