Concerns about the Cardinals' passing game are relative ones, the chart reminds us.

Kurt Warner is on pace for the fourth 4,000-yard passing season of his career.

The other NFC West starters have combined for one -- by Marc Bulger, in 2006 -- during their careers. The 49ers' Alex Smith has 5,083 yards for his career. Warner had 4,830 in 2001.
