Me 2. It cements Matt's job as the starter week 1.

I think it's an indication Warner will be the starter. They want to make sure Kurt has enough reps with the 1s before the season starts. Whiz has been honest and straight forward with everything since he's been here. He's precise and methodical in his ways and in his speech. He has said or done nothing to create the QB controversy yet many people are quick to panic when he doesn't do what they want him to do. I've gained even more respect for him.

I think we need seven more threads about this.

This wasn't meant to be another Warner/Leinart thread, rather just info I didn't see here about who the starting the Denver game. I found it interesting.

Means that Matt will get a lot of reps in the game. Warner wouldn't have gotten many reps regardless of starting.

Only guy getting the shaft here is St. Pierre.

And no, this tells us nothing about the week one starter job.

Would anyone be surprised if Whiz played both in week one?

can you see a situation during the year where Kurt starts, but Matt plays?

I can -- and we all did, kinda -- vs Pitt last year. Leinart starts, is mediocre -- Kurt comes in and gets them on the board. Then Matt comes back in and leads them to the clinching score.

the next week Leinart got hurt.

The template is out there --- its my bet on where we are going, and we get to have lots of these kinds of discussions all year long.

I dont follow

this seems to me like Warner will be the week 1 starter

How many starters play week 4 of the preseason?

Denver is said to be playing less than a handful. Alot of the same echoes we are hearing here.

not surprised, but disappointed.

that musical QBs nonsense is my biggest complaint about Whis. He needs to let them play through the bad series as well as the good series if any sort of rhythm is going to get started.

I think this tells us everything!!! No way Matt starts week 1 now. Warner is going to play with the first unit and it signifies it gets him some reps before the opener. Whiz can spin it anyway he likes...But it would make no sense after seeing Leinart play like he did against Oakland, to have him play with the 2nd team...no chemistry and no win situation for him...I see Warner starting week 1 ....gauranteed.

In fact goto ESPN and the Cards Preview ...they have Matt gone after this year and Warner starting week 1...Why would they post it agin if they were not sure after the Mortenen issue?

To ...... prove...... again..... that...... ESP...N .....has!!!!! no... idea.....

what they are talking about.

Why on earth would the get rid of Leinart after this year ? There are no salary implecations, no real reason to do so.

That is the dumbest thing I have heard yet. ESPN has made this a us vs. Whiz situation and I sure of it. And yes, I believe ESPN is THAT spiteful.

Notice NFL.com and NFLN have nothing to say about this? Why is this SUCH an important topic for ESPN ?
