Yes it does matter it is only a half.

Does any of this look familiar? Seems like we recovered quite well. And do not give me the 'we had Warner' crap because a good majority of posts in that thread were about how Warner sucked. People over-react all the time and you need to learn from past mistakes.

Warner completed over 60% of his passes in his career, Anderson has never done that. we wanted him to exceed our expectations and he hasn't. He is playing one of the worst teams in football and I am not sure he has completed a pass since the 1st quarter.

Warner worried us last year coming off his hip surgery...he didn't look good in week 1 and he was playing a pretty good defense (not what the Rams are running out).

If we were playing a top 15 defense and he was doing what he is doing it might be excusable, he isn't, this is still a bad Rams team. You can't ignore the opponent.

The difference is Warner (HOF QB) vs. Anderson (Terrible QB). You can't say to not bring up Warner. You brought him up.

But people here talked about him like he was done. That is exactly my point. There is a reason none of us work for an NFL team because we don't know how to judge talent. We go by what we think we know but in the end we don't have all the info and know everything to look for. I agree Anderson isn't that great of a QB but if Whiz chose him to start there is a good reason.

I breathed a sigh of relief when we got back onsides before the snap, but then to jump the gun on the same play and nullify a fumble recovery?

news flash not every NFL coach is infallible. He hasn't made a ton of mistakes but Whisenhunt isn't perfect.

Whiz want's an excuse to go to Max Hall sooner rather than later.....

Obviously everyone makes mistakes but Whiz knows a hell of a lot more than any of us. There are way too many people here who think they know more.

No, he is far from perfect but now this is his team. No more Kurt to lean on. After 4 years these are mostly his guys. Needs to win with them to prove something. This D will deserve better if this team can't score.

I am firmly in the court of the people who have said if Leinart wasn't the guy why didn't we trade for McNabb or Campbell or somebody better than DA.

We have all seen this before. from 1999 thru 2005 this is how we played. Does Anderson even see the blitz coming??
