Really? Is it too early to speculate who the Seahawks are going to hire to replace Carroll?

He sucks when it's sunny out. Can't wait to see him operate in Seattle.

Memo to the Cardinals...GO AHEAD AND TRADE HIM TO A DIVISION RIVAL... IT WILL WORK OUT JUST FINE.

Carroll is building USC North. He brings the coaches like we might expect in Norton and Bates. But, taking a risk on Leinart might be a bit much. I guess there are a few ex-Trojan WRs available. Should be fun to watch this play out.

lmao. this is like the ghost of steve spurrier returning to haunt the nfl. can't wait to watch this guy crash and burn.
if carroll struggles to win when hes got superior players across the board how could anyone expect him to succeed in the pros?

I guess we might find out how guaranteed his contract is in a couple of years ....

Anyone know if he's called Mike Williams yet?

If he does this, it's actually worse than Spurrier who didn't have an NFL coaching background.

I honestly believe this. He's been behind Warner for years now. He has the pedigree. He just needed to grow up. I think he will be a stud. Not sure I'm the only one.

Nope, you and LHucks can definitely form a group of 2.

For the chance to have Leinart as the starting QB for a division rival... Arizona really should be offering Seattle however many of their draft picks it takes to close that deal.
I'm thinking Leinart and Arizona's 3rd rounder in exchange for Carroll's word that he'll be the starter for at least 2 seasons.

Why would he do that? Doesn't he know Leinart sucks?
He knows divison rivals don't trade and he's probably just making sure the Cards don't cut bait anytime soon perhaps buying a year or two worth of trainwreck that ensues when Leinart takes over for Warner. Pretty slick move imo.

That would be great entertainment for the rest of the NFC West. Hey Pete, Lendale White is a free agent. Dominique Byrd too.

Jimmy Johnson on Sunday Pre-game said of AZ: I don't know who they plan to play QB after Warner retires but they better get a QB because Matt Leinart just is not very good. I don't think anyone with real football knowledge outside of Carroll believes Leinart can be an NFL QB anymore.Only reason I can think to do this is to mine Leinart for information on Arizona's offensive scheme.

I respect Johnson's opinion, but he was never a passing game/QB guru.I would be more interested in hearing what Martz or Holmgren have to say.

Spurrier was exactly who I thought of when I read this. Oh Danny Wuerful (sp?).

The next thing you know, Seahawks will be getting paid and driving Hummers.

Aikman? Testaverde? Kosar?

I know who his QBs have been.

And Shane Matthews too....If he can't get Leinart, maybe he can at least get John David Booty.

Not in this universe. The guy is awful. He's JaMarcus Russell level bad.
Even if Leinart doesn't light it up, he will assist in rebuilding the team. He knows Carroll, he has a good idea of the system (and it may actually be the same system) and the Cardinals are going nowhere fast if they have to use Leinart next year. Having a quarterback that knows the system can really speed up everyone elses learning as there is somebody on the field that knows the offense.
I don't see this happening just because Leinart has intimate knowledge of the Cardinal offense and they don't have anybody else to lead the offense after Warner.
What would the Cards take for Leinart?

Hey now, lets keep this reasonable. Russell has a level just to himself - and only time will tell if he'll reach Ryan Leaf-like prowess. Leinart has a decent running game, plays in a weak division, and throws to Fitz. I think its a safe bet he'll be at least average if not, well, you know, slightly better than... But MVP caliber? That's a little out there.

Correct.Throw in the fact that he's had flashes of brilliance...he's worth a flier if you're a guy like Carrol.
I don't remember the flashes of brilliances (I recall some flashes of not terrible back when he started quite a few games in 2006...but never brilliance. JMO) but I do completely agree with the above that he is worth a flier and that it is far from an indictment of his ability to not beat out Warner.
did johnson say both sentences of this or just the first one?

With the 1st pick the Seahawks select Joe Mcnight, Rb, USC

Anybody else remember when HUCKS promised Joe that he wasn't going to say silly stuff like this anymore?

Go watch the game at St. Louis from this year. With Warner, the Cardinals were cruising and on their way to dismantling the Rams. However, Warner gets a concussion, has to leave the game, Leinart comes in, and suddenly the Cardinals offense comes to a screeching halt, as they scored zero points the rest of the game (a little over half of the game), holding on to win thanks to the defense. In other words, Leinart sucks.
