Pretty much what I've been reading from some of you in some of these threads. How about getting behind this kid. I'm quite sure all this negative energy he's been getting this week is doing him a world of good.

there's a gulf of difference between people WANTING Lindley to fail and FEARING that he will.

no one here... NO ONE WANTS him to fail. that's ludicrous.

LMAO! You're right I hope he fails so bad and cards finish the season as the Sixth Seed. I mean, who really wants a first round bye and home field advantage anyway?

Do I want him to come out and look like a decent QB and punish those pompous Seahawk jerks? Heck yeah, with all I've got. Do I believe he will? Nope.

Nobody wants him to fail but people are being realistic he honestly might be the single worst starting QB I've ever seen. Hey hope he proves me wrong for at least one game but I'd be so much more comfortable with Logan Thomas starting

I'm not sure anyone here truly wants Lindley to fail; however, there are posters who obsess over players' shortcomings to the point in which it looks like they're rooting for them to fail.

Seriously?? You come to a Cards fan forum and state that you believe Cards fans "want" our QB to fail in the biggest game since the Super Bowl?? Seriously?? That's beyond whacked dude...

I hate Lindley and he will fail. The Cards have no chance in this game.

Can you point out one non-sarcastic post in which a poster says they want him to fail? Just one.

While no one wants him to fail, I think some expect him to, and posting negative things, is their way of handling disappointment. For me, I thought that we'd open the game by having RL throw a dump off pass into the flat in order to give him confidence. The more I thought about it, I'm now expecting our first play to be a long pass down field to Michael Floyd. Of course I'm a Kool Aid guy.

He will do the best he can. He played all his life and has two years mostly on the sidelines. I expect him to carry out the game plan. We win in the end.

Pretty sure 100% of Cards fans want Ryan Lindley to play the game of his life.

"Fans" is the key word in that sentence. He doesn't need to be Joe Montana. He just needs to play mistake free to give the Cards a chance. They've had 10 days to create a game plan. I'm confident he can be adequate.

I have no expectations. He was awful in his rookie year with the quarterback whisperer but this is a different situation.

I remember how -- in a stupor -- Stanton looked at the Hag's house , and that fuels my fears about Lindley . Do I want to see MAD BOMBER Lindley lead us to victory tonight ?
Oh Hell Yes !!! Do I understand how unlikely that is ! Yep !!!

Find me the threads who's subject this is. Instead we have these:

http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/f4/ryan-lindley-record-holder-216273.html

http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/f4/football-outsiders-ryan-lindley-not-good-at-football-216292.html

http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/f4/name-every-available-fa-qb-you-can-think-of-anyone-gt-lindley-215968.html

But there is not one thread that says that people here are behind him.

Dollar for Dollar I can think of a few QB's that could compete for worst. Did you see Johnny Football last week?

Cutler could lose a game ( and has ) all by himself. Every NFL QB could lose a game. There are only a handful of QB's in this league where you could strap the team on their back and ride them to a victory. Lindley is not one of them.

To say he is the worst is simply basing it on a lack of history with his only opportunity coming at a terribly and under-coached time.

We're not looking for 3 td passes. Hell, I don't care if he doesn't throw a td pass today. I'll take a defensive td and 3 fg's today. I'll take two running td's today. I just want him to mange the game and not turn it over.

I said it before and I'll say it once more...Hope is Free!

Complete troll thread. I'm hoping Lindley goes there & has the game of his life.

And I have a VERY GOOD feeling this will happen! There will be a lot of shocked people after this game
