After another subpar performance in what has been a career of subpar performances, people are questioning whether Arizona QB Matt Leinart's starting job is in jeopardy. As Andy pointed out last night, Leinart was 4 for 6 for 28 yards against the Titans on Monday, and he led his team to a trio of three-and-out possessions. Here's Leinart's response, as recorded by the Arizona Republic , and it's part obvious and part … sorta … ridiculous. "You want to move the ball better, obviously," Leinart said. "It falls on the quarterback. … You guys critique every play and think I'm not very good because we don't move the ball. I understand it falls on the quarterback. The game plan is small. I'm not worried about it. I know I need to play better."Listen, I know Anderson was playing in a system that didn't highlight his strengths – mainly his big arm – but if Leinart can't keep the starting job that was thought to be his, I'd say there's no hope Leinart will ever be a starting quarterback in this league.

I agree 100%!!! The guy is not anywhere near an NFL QB. He was an epic college QB, but the pros are just too much for this California rich boy... :beer: **********Automerged Doublepost********** I think you are on to something.. I wouldn't be surprised if Matt got traded to the Seahawks. LOL That would be freaking funny!! Cause you know Pete Carrol is ready to give up the whole team in trade.
leinart never was a starting-caliber nfl qb and i gave whiz and his coaches the benefit of the doubt when they named him the starter months ago even though I thought it was a dumb move ................. maybe i shouldn't have given them the benefit of the doubt that they knew something we didn't .............. maybe they were just praying that he would get better because they had no other options ............
hes got some serious man love for leinart and bush though (for good reason i suppose) he gave up a second for whitehurst, i think hes give up the same or more for leinart
He still could/can never throw a screen pbutt. Have fun with the 20pct completion rate on his bomb throws..
after 4 years of carrying the clip board without making any progress....his job needs to be in jeopardy.
They are in a tough spot, go with Leinart and he'll complete short stuff but be inaccurate long, go with Anderson and be more explosive but watch him throw 25 picks with an awful completion percentage.
