After Such A Strange Career, Does Warner Deserve To Be In The Hall?
There’s no doubt that Kurt Warner has had one of the most unique career paths of any player in the NFL. After going un-drafted, Warner played in the Arena League and NFL Europe before finally getting his chance to succeed in the NFL. While Warner had a tremendous start to his career, he quickly crashed down to earth just a few seasons later. In 2003, Warner was benched in favor of Marc Bulger. It appeared his time as an NFL starting quarterback was over. After years of rotating between a starter and a backup, Warner finally got another chance in 2007. With Matt Leinart struggling, Warner replaced the young quarterback and looked like the Warner of old. Since 2007, Warner has thrown 77 touchdowns*. With a strong finish to his career, is Kurt Warner a Hall Of Famer?

The Most Interesting Replacement Quarterback This Week
There have only been three weeks of football thus far this season and there are already changes being made at the quarterback position. Whether one guy got hurt or another played poorly, there are a number of teams that will be changing signal callers while heading into week 4. In rare cases, these quarterbacks perform well and lead their teams to victory. More often than not, they struggle and their team remains mediocre. What types of performances can we expect from 2009’s first batch of backup signal callers?

Can Kurt Work His Magic In 2009?
Don’t let a Super Bowl appearance fool you, the NFC West was a bad division last season. The best of the worst was the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona took a 9-7 record into the playoffs, got hot, and were only 35 seconds away from being the Super Bowl Champions. San Francisco experienced a mid-season resurgence after Mike Singletary took over as head coach and finished 7-9. Both the Seahawks and the Rams suffered various injuries throughout the year. Without a Quarterback, Wide Receivers, or an O-Line, Seattle finished 4-12. The lowly Rams were even worse, finishing 2-14. The Cardinals may have gone to the Super Bowl, but the Seahawks and Rams are fully recovered from their injuries. If anything, the NFC West could prove to be the most surprising division in the NFL.

This Year Could Turn Out Very Different for Ken Whisenhunt
Are you ready for some football? Yes, the Hall of Fame has already been played, but football is back. While there are four games on tonight, the only one to be nationally televised is a rematch of last year’s Super Bowl. One of the biggest stories leading up to the Super Bowl was the Cardinals improbable run in the playoffs. When you consider that they lost 7 games in the regular season, went 3-7 outside of their division, and were 1-4 against playoff teams during the regular season, you start to wonderhow the heck this team caught fire. Some people even argued that the Cards were the worst team to ever make it to the Super Bowl. However, they gave the Steelers one heck of a game. If it wasn’t for a tip-toe catch by Santonio Holmes, the Cardinals fortunes would have been completely reversed. The team long seen as a joke, would have been World Champions. As we all know, that was not the case. Well, the new year is almost here for the Cardinals. Another chance to reverse their fortunes and seek out glory. However, tonight might be the only time the words “Arizona Cardinals” and “Super Bowl” are mentioned in the same sentence this season.
