The Cardinals have decided to place Matt Leinart on the Injured Reserve List ending his season.  The Cardinals just didn’t think they could afford to tie up a roster spot with Leinart so they made this move.  Tim Rattay will now backup Kurt Warner and the Cards were lucky to find him available this late in the season as he’s a pretty good player.  Rattay played in 4 games (2 starts) last season for the Bucs and he completed 61 of 101 (60.4%) passes for 748 yards with 4 TD passes and 2 interceptions (88.2 QB Rating).  He was one of the final cuts by the Titans before the season started as they decided to only go with 2 QBs this year.  Rattay has now played in 36 games (18 starts) and he has completed 417 of 687 passes (60.7%) for 4,689 yards with 28 TD passes and 20 interceptions (82.6 QB Rating).  He also has carried the ball 43 times for 72 yards (1.7 ypc).
