Kurt Warner to Miss Skins Game

I haven't seen someone all over a QBs jock like this since I watched pregame coverage of the Cowboys / Patriots game last week.

Rattay is the tourniquet on another withering Cards season. With Leinart and Warner out, this guy isn't going to do squat against the Skins secondary. Fitzgerald and Boldin are going to have to play the games of their career in order to do something against the likes of Springs, Rogers, Smoot, Taylor and Landry.

However, the one guy that does worry me, and that can bail out Rattay is Edgerrin James. 5th in the league (2nd in NFC thanks to Peterson's performance for the Vikes) in rushing. If he starts to have a good game, it will certainly open up the passing game.

Rattay is what he is...a journeyman QB who's with his 3rd team in 3 years and has never played a full season, playing behind the likes of Jeff Garcia, Chris Simms, Bruce Gradkowski...not exactly superb company.

The Skins just need to play their game, like they did against the Lions, and they will be fine.

I guess it is all perception. Historically, 80.3 is good by pretty much any standard. This year, it really isn't good. Completion percentages are at an all time high accross the league.

But what exactly has Rattay "failed" at? Because he wasn't an elite quarterback as a 4th year player on one of the worst teams in history? You leave it in context and what he has accomplised is actually pretty impressive given his leaguewide value. We could have had him in here this offseason for near league min value, and he's about 3 times the QB Todd Collins is.

Now we have to play against him. I'd like to go into this week already knowing we are going to have the W, but all I can do is hope our D keeps it up. If they don't we could be 3-3 come Monday.

I didn't say he failed at anything. I said he's a journeyman and a decent backup. That doesn't fit into my definition of "good" when talking about NFL QB's, but like you said it's all about perception and our perceptions about this guy obviously differ.

Considering the passing attacks we've already shut down, I'm not at all concerned about a passing game led by Tim Rattay with 2 weeks of prep on a new team, sorry I'm just not.

If we lose this game it won't be because of the defense that's for sure.

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but Cardinals signed Tim Hasselbeck (and cut Quentin Moses)

Not a bad move. They still don't have much to work with at the QB position.

Our D SHOULD have another really good day. Let's hope the O-line can hold up, and our play makers can make some plays! I expect a BIG win.

No matter who is QB for the Cardinals on Sunday they will beat us if we don't execute in all three phases of the game.

Looks like Warner is going to try to practice tomorrow. Doubt he'll play though

I can't believe what a BUST Moses was. I'm an SEC guy (Go Gators), and I've watched Moses for a while. I never thought he was that good, but I can't believe he was a first day pick and just got dropped. Unreal.

As far as Warner is concerned, I wish him perfect health... after this Sunday.

I hate to be cliche, but on any given sunday, any team can get it done. We must win this game whoever is their QB.

If we can't score but 14 points, even a journeyman backup or an aging, injured has-been can beat us, even with good D. But I do think if we play our game, they can't beat us. It's in our hands--let's hope the fire is there!

Wonder where Moses will end up? Is he done?

I mean, i'm really happy because when warner was in he was doing much better than leinart. Now they have their number 3 in which they recently signed. Good news.
