QB Matt Leinart, Arizona Cardinals
Even though Kurt Warner is playing well and putting up big stats, how much longer can he stay injury free? Additionally, there have been some rumblings about Warner retiring. All told, it’d be unwise to forget about Leinart possibly stepping in at some point and producing.
RB Cedric Benson, Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals recently signed Cedric Benson and then followed that up by waiving Kenny Watson. With Chris Perry only playing decently, Benson could very well get a shot at a starting gig before too much longer.
WR Ted Ginn Jr., Miami Dolphins
Many fantasy football owners have given up …read more

Kurt Warner beat out Matt Leinart to be named the starting quarterback of the Arizona Cardinals. While Leinart has shown flashes of competence in his NFL career, his uneven play during preseason combined with Warner’s solid play made the decision easy for the Cardinals coaches.
This news is devestating for anyone who expected Leinart to produce this season. Especially if you own Leinart in a dynasty league, you may want to start planning on life without him. Part of Leinart’s problem so far in his NFL career is immaturity. Leinart and his partying ways this offseason probably …read more

The next chapter in the Vince Young saga is about how Young considered retirement after his rookie season with the Tennessee Titians. Young reportedly thought about retiring because the game no longer was fun and he was struggling from injury. However, Young now says that he no longer plans to retire prematurely.
Young was in the news recently for photos that made their way to the internet. In the photos, Young appeared topless and possibly drunk. A few days later, Young apologized for the photos.
All this Vince Young news can’t make fantasy owners too excited …read more

Vince Young has offered an apology for the topless and apparently drunk pictures that were posted on the internet earlier in the month. Young’s apology was directed at kids who view him as a role model.
Although Young apologized, he also said that he won’t stop having fun in the offseason. While that is certainly understandable, it doesn’t ease the concern that fantasy football owners and the Tennessee Titans have about the young quarterback.
Young is immensely talented but he also has a lot of work to do to improve enough to be a solid quarterback in the …read more

Check out these pictures of Vince Young apparently drunk and certainly topless. I’m not exactly sure what Vince Young was doing. He was partying but it doesn’t look like a very enjoyable party.
Matt Leinart’s party pictures got him in some trouble with his team. Will these Vince Young pictures get the Titans’ star quarterback in trouble? I guess we’ll have to wait and see. Surely, the Titans coaches can’t be excited by what they see.
And while Leinart got criticized, at least he had females at his party. There are no chicks visible in Vince …read more

Matt Leinarts biggest offseason news was when he got pictures published on the internet with him mingling with drunk co-eds. Matt Leinart in a Jacuzzi with a handful of young ladies? Matt Leinart holding up a beer bong? This isn’t what the Arizona Cardinals had in mind for Leinart in terms of an offseason workout.
For fantasy football owners, this was also bad news. Leinart was extremely underwhelming in 2007, to the point that Kurt Warner became the obviously better option at quarterback. Leinart struggled with everything from his condition to leadership. Coming into 2008, …read more

Sure, Kurt Warner is old and he’s looked pretty bad ever since his glory days with the Rams ended. That said, there’s a chance we see some of the Warner magic of yesteryear for the rest of the season with the Arizona Cardinals. With Matt Leinart out for the rest of the year, Warner has a great opportunity to show what he has left in the tank.

At 36-years-old, Warner isn’t as ancient as it seems. In fact, opening day starters Brett Favre, Trent Green and Jeff Garcia are older than Warner. Favre and Garcia are still going strong and are …read more

Here are some players you should target on the waiver wire this week, due to injuries or other situations on their teams.
Kurt Warner, QB, Arizona Cardinals
With Matt Leinart out for an extended amount of time with a broken collarbone, the door is wide open for Warner to step through and post big numbers. He has two great receivers and an improved offensive line. Pickup Warner if he’s available. While he isn’t starting material right away, he could be very soon once he gets comfortable.
David Carr, QB, Carolina Panthers
Jake Delhomme is out for the season after opting for elbow surgery. That …read more

Unfortunately for several NFL teams and fantasy owners alike, Week 5 saw many notable players go down with injuries.
Jamal Lewis, RB, Baltimore Ravens
After his first carry, Lewis left the game against the Patriots and was unable to return. After the game, Lewis said the injury wasn’t serious. However, he’ll likely have an MRI which may tell a different story. Jason Wright is Lewis’ backup.
Michael Pittman, RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Pittman started in place of regular starter Cadillac Williams, who is out for the season with a knee injury. Pittman was injured early on and it appears he will be out for …read more
