This Is The Worst Cardinals Team I've Ever Seen

[Rats]

We have plenty of suckage in our lienage of suckatude but we had the opportunity to defend the Division crown this year. Had the right decision been made at Qb and had our fast start been backed up with solid gameplans we would have won this division easily. What makes this the wors't for me is that we gave this thing away. No one took it and to me that is a Huge FAIL. Worst season ever.

Boy isn't that a huge leap in faith. To say we would be anywhere at the top of this division with Matty at the helm is just plain silly.

Well then that must say how crappy the coaching really is if you can't develop a #1 pick Qb in 4 seasons. So much so, that you cut him a week before the season and handpick one of the most inaccurate Qb since Jay Schroeder to defend the division title. I tend to believe we would have scored more with Matt and I find it very difficult to believe he would have not been leaps and bounds better than DA scud. In any other year you might be right but not this year. We are in the wors't division in history and we were coached into being the wors't in it. We gave this division away this year. No one has stood up to take it. At this point not sure anyone wants it if it is won with a sub .500 record.

This IMO is far from the worst team in Cards history. You can make a case for 89,90,91 etc: Take out the 70's and 98 we have had much worse teams. Now we may not have had any worse QB'S!

After watching this team for over 60 years it only appears this is the worst team ever. In fact we have had more teams like this than I care to remember. The one common denominator which is undisputable is ownership.

Leinart's career passer rating 70.8

DA - 68.8

The judges would have also excepted Bubby Brister.

Had Warner stuck around I could have seen cutting Matt and going with a vet as backup( since Whiz never developed or cared for Matt as he was not his draft pick) but the way in which it came down a week before the season and what we witnessed after the fact, has me believing that we gave the Division away with this choice. To say Matt would have been as bad as DA is what is silly despite your abstract career pass rating which would have had nothing to do with this season.

Yeah, had he been available he would have probably been the pick...you know ex-Steeler and all

Maybe it did, maybe it didn't. DA played within 3 points of his career rating. Why would Leenart be any different? This team had serious problems with Leenart at QB or with DA, Max, Skelton at QB.

 

[Diamondback Jay]

I believe we fielded a pretty good team in the strike shortened 1482 season.

Or was that 1882? After a while all those bad seasons start to kind of blend together.

That 1695 team was rough too Jeff.. Hard to imagine a team worse than that.

Then again, the 82 BC team kinda sucked on that level too.. Nevermind.

 

[Rats]

Matt had more time in Whiz's offense.....it stands to reason that Matt would have had a better season than DA on this fact alone. This decision was a major factor in crashing the 2010 season IMO. Whis felt DA had better chemistry...leaves you wondering if Matt had worse chemistry or Whis just needed to get another guy that wasn't his guy gone. He made a bad choice and it cost us this weak division. Huge Fail.

 

[earthsci]

...leaves you wondering if Matt had worse chemistry...

He did. The receivers wanted someone other than Leinart. When he didn't show up to train with them, after saying he would, to hang out and train with TO, the receivers wanted someone different.

 

[cardpa]

Not the worst, but the most disappointing. Well, maybe that and '99.

I agree, this is the most disappointing team, good talent and potential that was flushed down the toilet by poor decisions.

 

[BigRedFan]

The 2003 team was last in points scored and points against. The only comparison that would equate them to the Dolphins of 72, in my opinion, would be a high school team. Don't get me wrong, this years version is a pathetic, pitiful team and I will agree it could enter discussion as worst ever, and would be debatable when you consider yardage stats, incoming potential, etc. It's just not a slam dunk.

I must have missed where they were demanding a different Qb other than Leinart. Not saying it didn't happen but this is the first I have heard of that. The only thing I heard a Wr say was Fitz saying he was just a soldier ala Sham Green ...I mean Shawn Green. Never heard any one of them throw Matt under the bus. They just didn't spend any effort trying to support him.

It was never public. They went through Whisenhunt.

i heard about Leinart not working out with Fitz.

Or the guy just plain sucks and doesn't have what it takes. Which has nothing to do with coaching FYI.

Matt Leinart career completion percentage: 57.1
DA's horrible career completion percentage: 52.6
Jay S: 50.8

It is hard to know if he plain sucked or not when the rug got pulled out after he was told that he was the guy this season. His past performence did not say great or terrible. He deserved this season and Whis punted instead. I am not a huge Leinart guy. I thought it was a bad pick when we took him but how it was handled in the Preseason was bush league by Whis. He never recovered this season from this blatantly stupid choice.

So I would say the last 2 suck bad and that Leinart in a 60/40 run to pass ratio does adequete to win this weak division. Although stats can be made to say anything you want.

I agree 100% it was a mistake to cut him.

I don't agree you can just assume we would be sitting any better with him at the helm. If anything at most IMO we might have won maybe 1 maybe 2 more games. All everyone would be doing then is bitching that we need a true #1 QB and that they wished we would have lost more to get a better draft pick. Sound familiar?

I was just putting that up for perspective. This team struggles to score 10 points a game at 60/40 run. In my opinion.

Agree but thats the same run or pass. Russ Grimm needs to go.
