A look back at the 2010 season for the Cardinals
The 2010 season was a season of change. After two consecutive years in the playoffs, Kurt Warner retired. Anquan Boldin was traded. Antrel Rolle left in free agency.
Matt Leinart was supposed to be the heir apparent at quarterback. They signed Derek Anderson, and Anderson won the job. Leinart was cut.
They went 5-11, losing seven games in a row in the middle of the season Anderson, Max Hall and John Skelton all started games at quarterback.
Anderson started the most games with nine, and he led the team with 2,065 passing yards, seven touchdown passes and 10 interceptions.
Tim Hightower led the team with 736 rushing yards and five touchdowns.
Fitzgerald had 90 receptions for 1,137 yards and six touchdowns.
