I beg your forgiveness for reporting on something that I'm sure all the Furriners readers have already seen but, in the event that anyone has missed it, I will report that there's a video posted over at the Arizona Cardinals team page over at ESPN.com which includes this interaction between host Trey Wingo and NFL analyst Darren Woodson:
TW: (Arizona) is built to win and win in that division now. Can Matt Leinart be that quarterback for them?
DW: I don't think so right now. When you look at quarterbacks around the league, you'd better have one of these three qualities:
1) you'd better be athletic (Donovan McNabb)
2) a very smart quarterback (Peyton Manning)
3) a big arm (Brett Favre)
Right now, Matt Leinart doesn't have any of the three.
TW: Of those three things you mentioned, which is he most likely to be able to get to through hard work and off-season conditioning and working with the coaching staff?
DW: He'd better spend some time with Peyton Manning! ... He's never going to have that athletic ability. He's never going to be a guy who's going to increase his arm strength.
Well said, Darren!
As for Derek Anderson:
Big Arm? Check.
Smart? Check.
Athletic? Well, let's not get crazy here! He moves as well as Tom Brady... let's just put it that way.
