Matt Leinart

Matt Leinart Pouts While Warner, Boldin, & Fitzgerald Carve Up Miami Defense


By HardHat on September 17th, 2008

Thus far, Kurt Warner has played as well as I had predicted. By far, he's the best QB on the Arizona Cardinals' roster, and he's one of the best in the NFL. After two games, he's second in the league in passer rating, first in yards per attempt, and was just named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for the [...]

Cardinals quarterbacks, past, present and future


By Greg Esposito on August 29th, 2008

pastpresfut.jpg

A few days ago Deadspin.com's former editor Will Leitch returned to the site to preview the Arizona Cardinals. The "preview" didn't so much look ahead to the 2008 season but took a stroll down memory lane, or nightmare lane depending on what kind of Cardinals fan you are. Leitch went through the [...]

What constitutes being a bust?


By Vince Marotta on August 26th, 2008

If there's such a thing as a big preseason game in the NFL, Saturday was it for Matt Leinart. With a chance to firmly grasp the starting quarterback job for the Arizona Cardinals, Leinart didn't deliver. He completed just four of 12 passes, threw three interceptions, and registered a quarterback rating of 2.8. Reports started [...]

I was wrong, Kurt Warner should be the Cardinals starter


By Greg Esposito on August 25th, 2008

I was wrong, Kurt Warner should be the Cardinals starter. That's not only what Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt should say, but it's what I've had to admit around the office all day. Last week I spent time and energy championing Matt Leinart as the answer to the Cardinals' quarterback question. [...]

Tim Hightower and J.J. Arrington each ran for 3rd quarter touchdowns, and the Arizona Cardinals shook off a sloppy first half in a 24-0 preseason win over the Oakland Raiders at McAfee Coliseum. The Cardinals led only 3-0 at halftime on a 24-yard field goal by Neil Rackers in the first quarter. Hightower capped a 68 [...]

By Vince Marotta on August 22nd, 2008

Did you ever think you'd see an Al Davis team run the football 62% of the time? That's exactly what they've done through two weeks of the NFL preseason. But young Raiders' head coach Lane Kiffin wants to see his quarterbacks air it out this week, as the Silver and Black play host to the [...]

My rants on the Cardinals’ preseason win over the Chiefs


By Vince Marotta on August 18th, 2008

N

The Cardinals finally got their first preseason win under the guidance of head coach Ken Whisenhunt Saturday night with a 27-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. My first thought was "who cares?" NFL preseason football is the biggest scam perpetrated on the American sports fan ever. Invariably I get jacked up for the [...]

QB controversy with Cardinals?


By Vince Marotta on August 15th, 2008

Matt Leinart is the Arizona Cardinals' starting quarterback. We've heard it all offseason. That fact was driven home last Thursday when Leinart got the start in Arizona's preseason opener, a 24-10 loss to the New Orleans Saints at University of Phoenix Stadium. Leinart played well, completing 7 of 8 passes for 91 yards in [...]

By Vince Marotta on August 5th, 2008

Said meaningless game for Saints and Cardinals fans is Thursday night at UoP Stadium in Glendale. Saints' faithful will not get to see the New Orleans debut of tight end Jeremy Shockey, [...]

Matt Leinart Blows 98 Degrees Nick Lachey?

Just when you thought the worst was over in the "Matt Leinart shows questionable judgment in the pictures he lets people take" saga, (yes we realize that is a really long name for any thing referred to as a saga) it gets significantly worse. Honestly, we can't even defend you on [...]
