WHAT TO WATCH FOR: The Cardinals don't have the linebackers to defend Atlanta's spread offense, so the Falcons should have a big day running Warrick Dunn.
Falcons CB DeAngelo Hall has a bruised calf, meaning he could get burned by Arizona receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin. If there is a problem in Arizona, it's that QB Kurt Warner still doesn't believe his young receivers run precise routes all the time.
RB Edgerrin James wants the ball more, but he definitely looks like he's slowing down.
CZAR'S SCOOP: For a 24-period, Cardinals coach Denny Green wanted to switch quarterbacks. However, once the Falcons got whipped on Monday night football, there was no way he wanted rookie Matt Leinart to get his NFL debut in a hostile road stadium and before a truly upset Falcons' team.
If Warner continues his fumbling act and it leads to another Arizona loss, look for Leinart to start next Sunday at home against the Chiefs. There is a chance that DE John Abraham (groin) and LB Ed Hartwell will return after Atlanta's bye week.

I honestly expect Matt Leinart to get into this game after half time. That will be a good thing for the Falcons. They should confuse and tee off on him.
