Are you serious? you compare him to Young who is going to be 10 times better than him. Just because you were good, or even great some might argue, in college that doesn't mean much in the NFL with bigger, tougher, and quicker defenses. There are plenty of #1 picks or first rounders that couldn't hack it.
Anyways, we know now that they both will be playing.

Young ten times better than Leinart? At what? Running the ball...cause then I'd agree, but as a QB, no way. Young threw for 2199 yards and 12 tds in 15 games. Young's comp % was only 51.5%. Leinart threw for 2547 yards, 11tds in only 12 games, and had a 56.8% comp %. That's a lot better.
Young is likely the most overrated player in the game today. Everyone thinks he's the next best thing. He's not.
About Warner...he doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. He is one of the most accurate passers in NFL history (65.7% career), but 2002 changed him. He threw for only 3 tds and 11 int's in 7 games for the Rams that year. He has shown signs of brilliance, then turned around and looked like crap. I think he still has greatness in him, but he can't be rushed. He has to have time to sit back in the pocket. When he's pressured too much, he chokes. If he could make better decisions when he's hurried / pressured, and could hold on to the ball when he's about to be sacked, he'd be great again. I think he thinks that he needs to make the play on every play, and football is more about making the most of the opportunities that present themselves, and not forcing it.
