Football is a business. You hear that common refrain all of the time when players are holding out. (Looking at you, Vincent Jackson.)

So forgive the indulgence as we ponder the fantasy impact of Tom Brady‘s recent fender bender.

The big winner in Matt Leinart’s exodus from Arizona could be undrafted rookie Max Hall. The big loser also could be the Cardinals.

The word coming out of Arizona is that Matt Leinart has lost the confidence of his teammates.

Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt told reporters he has respect for Matt Lineart, and his decision on a starting quarterback isn’t personal.

It’s the topic du jour this week in the NFL: Matt Leinart or Derek Anderson?

Ken Whisenhunt said following practice on Monday that he hasn’t made a decision on the whole Matt Leinart versus Derek Anderson thing, meaning it isn’t going away anytime soon.

It’s the morning after … nine games were on the NFL preseason slate on Saturday night, so let’s take a bullet-point look on thoughts and observations from around the league.

The Cardinals will give QB Derek Anderson a chance to prove that he should be the team’s signal caller as they travel to Chicago to take on the Bears.

If the possibility the Cardinals cut Matt Leinart is very real, what happens next?

As you would imagine, Matt Leinart isn’t happy about not starting Saturday’s preseason game against the Chicago Bears. Despite his current demotion behind Derek Anderson, he still plans on starting the regular-season opener.

The Cardinals have made the switch from Matt Leinart to Derek Anderson, at least for the team’s third preseason game against the Bears.

Apparently Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt has seen enough of QB Matt Leinart, now he wants to see what Derek Anderson can do. Anderson will get the start for the Cardinals on Saturday, according to Darren Urban (via Twitter).

Despite the vote of confidence from Ken Whisenhunt, NFL Network analysts Jamie Dukes and Rod Woodson believe Derek Anderson will ultimately win out as the starting QB for the Cardinals over Matt Leinart.

Much of Wednesday’s production meeting for NFL Total Access was dedicated to Tim Tebow, who will be a focal point of the show today at 7 p.m. ET. Get the latest from analysts Mike Mayock and Charley Casserly on Tebow’s pro day performance.

The addition of Derek Anderson won’t hurt the fantasy value of Matt Leinart heading into next season.
