As a lifelong Cardinal football fan I can attest to what difference a great QB makes, Kurt Warner took an above average team to within 1:32 of winning a Super Bowl.

It's funny, I was actually very upset at the Giants organization when they benched Kurt Warner, in favor of the Rookie, Eli Manning.
Long run, it turned out to be the right call, but it's hard as a fan when you see a team in the playoff hunt, throw that away halfway through the season, for the sole purpose of seasoning a rookie QB who has no chance of winning many games at the time.
