Cards tune up in red zone

The Cardinals continue to hone their red-zone offense at training camp in Flagstaff.
It will be interesting to see how Matt Leinart fares running it. Kurt Warner, of course, got the call in these situations last year and was quite effective. (Leinart was quoted, before he got hurt, that he didn’t understand the quarterback shuffle).
Now, assuming Leinart holds onto the starting job, he’ll likely be handling the offense no matter where the Cardinals are on the field….
Aaron Francisco, who was picked on by the Saints Thursday, made a sliding interception of Leinart on Monday morning…Jamaica Rector made a nice over-the-shoulder catch in the end zone during the red-zone practice…Bryan St. Pierre continues to look sharp as the presumed No. 3 quarterback. That he’s thrown only one career NFL pass shows how tough it is to get a quarterback job.
