Kurt Warner has to be getting some discussion for league MVP this year and I haven’t heard a lot about it yet. All he has done is lead his team to a 7-3 record, for the first time since 1977, throw for nearly 3200 yards and 20 touchdowns. This is all after 10 games!!!

Warner was brought into Arizona as a mentor for Matt Leinart but has shown that he can still play and read defenses with the best of them. He has some excellent receivers in Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin and doesn’t need the running game as much. In fact, when Edgerrin James went to the bench and the Cards went to a pass first offense they have really starting playing well and winning.

Warner features a career high 71% completion rate which is incredible considering teams know what the Cards are going to do with the ball. He has a 105 passer rating which would be his 2nd best ever and is on pace to have more than 30 Td passes. Warner is peaking at a time when his team needs him to peak and it’s fun to watch. If the Cards finish strong and make the playoffs, don’t be surprised if Kurt Warner walks away with his 3rd league MVP and garners some serious discussion for the Hall of Fame.
