Kurt Warner and Matt Leinart Split Reps in Practice 50/50
The good news is that Kurt Warner says the foggy vision, residual effects from a concussion sustained against the Rams, is gone now . The better news is that he and Matt Leinart still split reps 50/50 at practice just in case Warner isn't ready for Sunday nights matchup between the Arizona Cardinals and the Minnesota Vikings. Ken Whisenhunt is taking a more cautious route this week after Warner took all of the reps last week but Warner is optimistic about playing this week.
News that isn't so good is that Mike Gandy is in jeporady of missing Sunday's game, which means that Jeremy Bridges will likely start in his place. To make matters even more interesting, Levi Brown also took reps at left tackle, in the event that Bridges goes down during the game. The last domino effected will be Brandon Keith who would step in at right tackle if Brown moves over (so needless to say he'll be active for the first time this year). Will Davis and Stephen Spach also missed practice while Tim Hightower, Bryant McFadden, Kenny Iwebema and Neil Rackers were all limited. Karlos Dansby, despite nursing injuries in both shoulders, fully participated in practice.

This is indeed good news
Matt needs the reps more than Warner. If Warner can’t go I’d feel much better knowing Leinart has gotten work with the fist team offense.
Good luck to the Cardinals in our big match-up Sunday night!
From a Vikings fan – I wish you guys the best of luck in our game! I rooted really hard for you to win the SB last year!
Hope Warner is back to full health going forward. Also, please beat the Packers when you play them – we universally hate them. Thanks. ;)

Brandon Keith & Herman Johnson
I want to see Brandon Keith & Herman Johnson get some work. Their young and huge.
Speaking of young, wheres Rashad Johnson and Greg Toler?

Keith is still developing but it seems like they’ve decided that he’s better off at tackle. Either way he’ll get a shot at playing time next season.
Big Herm is a developmental guy who we probably won’t see on the field until 2011, especially if they keep him at tackle.
RJ – had a tougher than expected rookie season but the depth ahead of him hasn’t helped either.
Toler – Looked ok in a couple of spots but ultimately he’s been about what we expected, very raw.
Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
This is a monster chance for Bridges
He’s never played LT before this season but if he can prove to the league that he’s even a capable fill-in starter at that spot then he’ll have a job for the next several years. If he does really well then we might be looking at our starting LT for next year.
