Kurt Warner was munching on a hamburger and fries and drinking a Pepsi for lunch with his wife, Brenda, in Beverly Hills recently. Much as he's tried through protein shakes and healthy foods, the retired NFL quarterback still can't gain the 20 pounds he lost through the stress and pressure with the Arizona Cardinals his last two seasons.

INDIANAPOLIS - Kurt Warner understood what made the Greatest Show on Turf work. It wasn't his strong, accurate arm or those speedy receivers who stretched defenses to the limit. No, the Rams' secret weapon was Marshall Faulk's uncanny mind.
TAMPA, Fla. -- Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner had a few words to say about his future, but they didn't add up to much: I don't know. There are so many emotions that go into making that decision.
WARNER: It'll be business as usual. No big speeches. I'm not going to tell them it's just like every other game; I'm going to show them. Act the same. Prepare the same. Call plays the same way. As you lead them, they'll come to understand it's the status quo.
TEMPE, Ariz. Kurt Warner wound up right where he wanted to be, with a hefty pay raise to return to the Arizona team he led to the Super Bowl.
The changing of the guard among NFL quarterbacks is nearly complete. All four starting quarterbacks in today's NFL divisional playoff games were drafted in this century -- the last seven years, to be exact. Gone from the postseason scene are playoff fixtures such as Peyton Manning, Donovan McNabb, Brett Favre, Kurt Warner and Kerry Collins. The new breed has taken over. The only holdover from the old days among the NFL's final eight is 35-year-old Matt Hasselbeck of the Seattle Seahawks.
Ken Whisenhunt made the right move assuring Matt Leinart he will start next season. Leinart, not Kurt Warner, is the quarterback who holds the key to the Cardinals' future.
