Your TV most likely doesn’t have a bulb…

Yeah, you may be realigning magnets/ color guns.

Also of note, if it’s an older Rear projection CRT, you might just need to readjust your convergance if it’s off slightly as this can cause blurryness.

Typically a bulb won’t cause blurryness, though it can cause discoloration on LCD/DLP projection.

Also you mentioned the protective cover was damaged, did the screen behind it get damaged or shifted noticeably?

ok i will look into it and no just the protective cover was damaged it flew off the truck and smashed but nothing else
