The Cardinals tried like hell to trade 27-year old QB Matt Leinart before cutting him loose for nothing.  Leinart played in 8 games (1 start) for the Cardinals last year and he completed 51 of 77 passes (66.2%) for 435 yards with 0 TD passes and 3 INTs (64.6 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 9 times for -6 yards (-0.7 ypc) last year.  Leinart played in 29 games (17 starts) in his time with the Cardinals and he completed 340 of 595 passes (57.1%) for 3,893 yards with 14 TD passes and 20 INTs (70.8 QB Rating).  Leinart also carried the ball 46 times for 90 yards (2.0 ypc) with 2 TD runs for the Cardinals.  He was 7-10 as a starting QB for the Cardinals.  It speaks volumes about his ability that the Cardinals chose to start Derek Anderson over him will also keeping undrafted rookie Max Hall and 5th round pick John Skelton over him.  This could very well be the end of his NFL career.
