Did anyone happen to see Kurt Warner come off the bench and almost pull one out against Baltimore? I still say if he has the time to throw, he is one of the best pure passers in the NFL. I was personally happy for the guy. I always liked Warner. Class guy. Hope he gets the start next week.
Trouble is if he doesn't have all day to throw he makes bad decisions and/or fumbles.
He had a good run back in the day but he's not starting material anymore.

Since he left the cocoon that was the Rams offense, he's been grossly underrated. He was good on the Giants, and he looked good both seasons prior to this on the Cards. His fumbling issues have done him in, but QB fumbles are directly related to the guys in front of him.
He probably still gives them a better chance to win now than Leinart does although I really like Leinart and think he will be very very good.

Why? because he won NCAA championships at USC, the school where you are surrounded with talent in every position. I never thought he was that good, he gets scared and becomes very inaccurate with pressure.

Very true but when the protection breaks down it then becomes the QB's job to protect the ball and he just seemed to drop the balls at the worst times. I think we beat him in a game where he dropped a ball and we recovered for a TD.

He completed a lot of passes in college and had a good rookie year relative to Young and Culter. What more do you want of him at this stage in his career?

I don't know, but when you look at a QB, you can tell how confident he is and see signs of potential. I can't see any of that in that guy.
Are you serious? you compare him to Young who is going to be 10 times better than him. Just because you were good, or even great some might argue, in college that doesn't mean much in the NFL with bigger, tougher, and quicker defenses. There are plenty of #1 picks or first rounders that couldn't hack it.
Anyways, we know now that they both will be playing.

The Cards are too heavily invested in Leinart. They were getting killed by a great D and didn't want to damage their young QB's psyche. Leinart would have to go through a "Rex-like" stretch of games before Whisenhunt even considers benching him.
