Your not gonna get confirmation on how much Lieanrt will play. Its just a guess at this point BUT cards have nothing to play for and bad weather . if there up or down at some point you just expect it. NOW if Cards had something to play for ofcourse warner would be there the whole game but teqams do it all the time when theres nothing to play for in bad weather. Think about it , of you were the coach would you risk Warner in this weather. They cant go anywhere with Matt in the playoffs. Again this is all a best guess situation.

Dare sit Kurt Warner this week? (1 Viewer)
- Thread starter Mack DAddy
- Start date
It was just Keyshaun talking on ESPN - as someone else said - just speculation - not an "official" report.I would ignore it.
Leaning this direction as well. Frustrating.
You can ignore Keyshawn but I can't ignore the logic behind his speculation. Warner took a fierce beating against the Vikes and I'm sure that Whisenhunt saw his playoff hopes in danger of disappearing. Warner is the engine for the entire team. Protecting him should be their top priority at this point.For me, there are just too many things lined up against Warner at this point, both factual and speculative. I can't afford to deal with 2.5 quarters of bad weather football and then seeing Warner get pulled.Warner out, Hill in. And I hope I don't regret it later...

i'm going with garcia. i'd rather have a certain 15 or so points, than a possible 6 or so. i think warner has a rough game. if he plays the whole game, 225 1/2 + 1-2 fumbles. no thanks.
Just did it too. This week I decided I'd stick with Warner barring apocalyptic conditions...And that's what I've heard/seen this morning.

Pretty much my thinking at the moment. I can't hope for a great game from Warner, meaning 20+. All the real scenarios and even the speculation adds up to no better then a 15 pt game with a ton of downside. Thigpen should probably be able to hit 15 without worry today, but there is upside - although not a ton given the weather there as well. His bonus is that he can run for 30 yards and get some points quick for me.So I'm going with the "safe" play of Thigpen over Warner. I predict a large bite mark on my rear end shortly.

x2.Painful decision sitting Warner.
Hopefully Garcia gets through the game. Griese is inactive so they can't be too worried about Garcia. Let's just hope he plays the whole game and throws a couple TD's. GL

I have no choice, my backup is Leinart
Yea as much as it pains me to sit Warner, I can't risk the downside. Warner has little upside right now over someone like Garica.

Some of these subs are crazy. The SB is no time to be putting a scrub into your lineup only because of weather.
I pulled Warner, but have Hill against StL, so he's not really a scrub. But Dan O? Campbell against the Eagles?
I suppose the flip side of some subs here is the other owner can say "do you believe what my opponent did in the SB?"

You missed a few of the other reasons for benching Warner... it's not just the weather.

Didn't get home in time from church to put Delhomme in for Warner. Will probably end up costing me the Championship.

Please tell me that you started Rivers!!!I am between Warner and Rivers in the NBC Primetime Event championship round. First place is $100K and second is $15K, so it is only a decision that could impact me to the tune of $85K. It would be nice to hear from some FBG staffers regarding why Warner is ranked so high IF his getting pulled is a possibility.
