Mort reports that Leinart will start this sunday

:

How about a legit sports news site?

 

Ugh. But at least you didn't cut Brett Favre.

 

Now. Is that any way to talk to people who... ah hell, we deserve that...

 

I drafted Warner, and gave up Kevin Jones in a trade two weeks ago to get Leinart. I'm now very glad I did. If it doesn't happen this week, it will be soon. Warner was horrid on Sunday and is due to tear something anyway.

 

And yet another torpedo hits the DyePack Fantasy Football cruise ship.

I've got a smaller problem, but it still pisses me off.

My QBs are Warner and Eli. The Giants are off this weekend. The only available starting QB in my league is Gradkowski ... and the Bucs are off this weekend.

 

Is there enough Vienna sausage on the toothpick for both of them? ;D

 

My backup QB is Drew Bledsoe. My starter is warner, mostly because he's been reliable fantasy-wise until two days ago.

I get why a coach goes to the old standby of "Replace the QB!" after a couple consecutive losses. And I understand Warner had a bad game Sunday (he cost them the game with the key turnovers), and they drafted Leinart to play him at QB. And Leinart is a fast learner, a smart QB.

But to have a veteran starter, give up on him after just three weeks to throw in the rookie . . . . could potentially lead to a season of constant shuffle and embarrassment. I don't think it will because I'm a Leinart believer, but Green is obviously desperate to get things back on track.

 

That's a tough spot, shot. Maybe Michael Robinson will throw a few interceptions passes.

warner had two incredible years. arguably they were among the top 10 seasons for a quarterback in league history. but that's it. he's been done for a long time.
