Discussing the best (and worst) of Arizona sports.
Ok, so now we know: Matty-Matt Whine-hart is a goner in the A-Z. He's now a third-string QB in Houston with a big pay cut. Derek Anderson is now the undisputed starting QB for the Cardinals. For Game 1, anyway.
Leinart may not have fit here and Anderson may have more of a handle on the "intangibles" (i.e. not using the media to spar with your coach, aka the guy who can fire you), but there don't appear to be a lot of folks that trust that Anderson will keep his starting gig for the entire season.
Coach Whiz is trying his best to hide his respect for undrafted rookie Max Hall, but he's having some trouble with it. Whiz hates to give unqualified praise - or even qualified praise most times - to rookie players, but he's been fairly generous in stating his pleasure with Hall.
Given Anderson's shaky history and Hall's surprising ascension, how long is it before Max "Power" Hall starts a game for the Arizona Cardinals this season?

Barring injury or the team being totally out of contention....
Not this year.

Agreed.
With the receivers that he’ll have, I expect Anderson will be at least decent. Maybe even good. (I love me some Cardinals Kool-Aid).

The Kool-Aid is delicious.

I hope you know the history of the term “drinking the kool-aid” and are appropriately ashamed

I'm surprised
That so many people think Hall will be starting in the first fourth of the season.
