And he ain't happy about it: Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart questions reasons for demotion Funny, he complains about not being given an explanation but admits he never asked his HC for one. NOTE TO MATT: You are supposed to be a pro nobody owes you anything except what your contract entitles you to.
Hopefully the next time he talks to Whisenhunt the coach tells him he's been released. #$%&ing crybaby. :cuss:
Couldn't have happened to a better guy. You'd think he would be used to playing with players that get paid since his college days...
They've paid him a LOTA money to ride the bench. I think there should be a rookie pay scale, and you have to PERFORM to get the big bucks.
FYI, the Whisenhunt bio is a good read. To go from a walkon at Ga. Tech.and end up as a HC in the NFL. Ken Whisenhunt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Just another, not living up to the hype QB, from that period. Russell, Leinhart, Quinn and the list keeps growing.
Great, I picked up Derrick Anderson for only $1 in my auction league last week thinking he could serve as a decent backup.
Here are quotes from some of Leinart's teammates standing up for him as the stating QB: ***sound of crickets chirping*** The Silence of Matt Leinart's Arizona Cardinal Teammates Speaks Volumes - Desert Dirt - SB Nation Arizona I'm not certain but I believe this article was published even before Leinart went public with his comments. Who knows maybe the Seahawks want him.
27-year-old Derek Anderson is no small potatoes. He was a Pro Bowl QB in 2007 and the 4th player in Pac-10 history to throw for over 4,000 yards in a single season, the 6th player in Pac-10 history to ever throw for 10,000 yards in a career (finished with 11,249), and 2nd all-time in Pac-10 history with 79 TD passes. 27-year-old Matt "But, But I won a Heisman" Leinart might have thought he looked better than Derek Anderson, or that could have just all been in his self-absorbed head.
