The Arizona Cardinals suddenly have life on offense after switching from starting quarterback Matt Leinart to backup Derek Anderson.
LeinartThey went three-and-out three times in three drives with Leinart at quarterback.
Anderson came into the game and immediately the Cardinals seemed to have a spark. Anderson moved them right down the field into scoring position, the first time all summer Anderson has clearly outplayed Leinart.
Anderson's accuracy problems surfaced in the red zone, so it's not like he looked like Kurt Warner, but anyone watching the Cardinals' game against the Tennessee Titans would come away thinking Anderson would be the better choice.
The next exhibition game just gained importance for Leinart.
