Default OT: Matt Leinart demoted

Quote:
For the second time in three years, it looks like Ken Whisenhunt is giving up on Matt Leinart as a starting quarterback before the season even starts.

Whisenhunt announced that Derek Anderson will start Arizona's preseason game this week against the Bears. Matt Leinart will come off the bench late in the second quarter and play into the second half.
Matt Leinart benched for Saturday; could be done in Arizona | ProFootballTalk.com

Mike Lombardi has put forth the notion that Leinart could be on the outs:

Quote:
Could the Cardinals actually release or deal (not sure he has any trade value) the man they have pegged to take over for Kurt Warner? Based on Leinart's play this preseason, the scenario could actually become reality...

...If Leinart is not the starter, what purpose does he serve in Arizona? Once the decision is reached that Leinart is not the guy, then the Cardinals must move him along -- essentially waiving the 2006 first-round pick.

Okay, I'll be the first to ask it...

...can he rush the passer?

Unknown but he does well with the ladies on softball teams and in hot tubs.

He was pretty bad on Monday. The kid they had in the 2nd 1/2 seemed like he had some talent.

Looks like Arizona are back to picking in the top 10

Derek Anderson could be getting another starting gig, and throwing to Larry Fitzgerald & Co.. I'm sure this isn't keeping him up crying at night.

So what else is new? Last year in preseason they told him he was welcome to compete... for the back-up job. And then after Monday's game, BSPN Radio was having a field day comparing his in-game interview with Vince Young's.

I have nothing against the guy personally; there's a ton of great college players who never make it in the NFL. It was kinda bush league, though, the way he looked so dejected when the Cardinals took him.

It's embarrasing this guy was ever allowed to start in front of Kurt Warner...

Trade him to the Chiefs as backup QB?

He has a horrid attitude, after watching his pre season week 2 game, he was blaming WRs for absolute horrid passes, and even during the sideline interview was blaming teammates...

I would have dropped him right then and there... he's not a leader, he's not a QB in the NFL.
