To be more accurate, most of the guys that were playing in the 4th quarter will NOT be professional football players in two weeks! I don't make too much of it, but it was nice to see Matt getting his reps, and his confidence.

What do you think about the cross training he is doing in MMA woody?

It sure as Hell can't hurt (unless he breaks his hand or something). He actually bounced back and showed a little toughness against the Steelers after Harrison drove him to the turf (isn't that the EXACT same kind of hit that Adrian Wilson got fined for after crushing Trent Edwards last year?). I've always liked Leinart and he will need to be tough because I don't think Warner is going to hold up this year.

Remember in 2006 his first start was at home against the Chiefs. On his first drive the Chiefs stacked the line bringing the blitz. Leinart called an audible and hit Boldin on a 49 yd. bomb for the TD. I'm not saying he should be league MVP material, but I've been a beleiver ever since that play.

I guarantee it hurt getting better at being an athletic competitor.

That's the nature of the game.
