    The greatest part of Warner’s career is not his stint at Rams; it’s actually his ressurection with Cardinals after everyone thought he was a washed up QB. That’s what made him a HOF.

      Both . But the rags to riches is what sells in Hollywood. Lol but Rams was a good team 1999 and 2000. But who would of thought this old Washed up QB could take the crappiest team in the NFL back then to a Super Bowl. The best thing they had was Larry Fitzgerald. But incredible Story for sure.

    Kurt Warner is the kinda of man you wanna be. Not the Super Bowl Champ. Not the MVP. Not the Hall of Famer. The Man. The human being. Although if you can be like him as a human being AND "do your thing", go for it the way he did, with hard work dedication and integrity.

    Warner is still the most successful NFL QB to wear jersey number 13. Watching the CFP Championship game I thought it was very ironic that Stetson Bennett wore jersey number 13 just like Kurt Warner. Their stories were somewhat similar. It was a lot of fun watching each of them win championships after all that each went through to get there.
