I have been a Cardinals fan since 1957 and in all that time, including Terry Nofsinger, Buddy Humphrey, Gary Cuozzo, and numerous others, no one, and I repeat no one has played as bad and looked as bad as Lindley did today. He made Max Hall look like an All Pro. He looked lost and acted that way. After 55 years of following this team through 3 cities and having spent untold thousands of dollars doing so I think I and the rest of us are entitled to something better than what we saw today. The SB is so far in the rearview mirror right now as to be almost forgotten. Whiz should be, has to be, fired if the team is to have any credibility whatsoever. Skelton's not the answer but he should have done something, anything, to try and get a victory and rescue that kid, yet he stood on the sidelines and did nothing. That's unpardonable.

Yep. That was absolutely abysmal. I don't blame Lindley. He wasn't ready. That was painfully obvious to everybody watching, except, perhaps, Whiz. There was absolutely no reason to keep him in the game after the first half. Whiz just didn't want to admit that he made a mistake. I'm sick and tired of his piss-poor handling of the QB sitatuation. I can't wait for him to be fired.

I have to blame Lindley. Although in another thread I wrote why a young QB would struggle early in his NFL career but I have never in my 55 years of watching football seen a QB throw that poorly. Not even John Skelton. Well there were a couple of 9-10 year old Pop Warner games that might have equaled it.
