The Arizona Cardinals offensive unit was engineered by a bevy of journeyman signal-callers during a large portion of the 1990s.

When the Arizona Cardinals franchise left St. Louis for the “Valley of the Sun” back in 1988, the team possessed one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL.

Unfortunately, two-time Pro Bowler Neil Lomax would play for just one season in the desert before a chronic hip condition forced the 30-year-old into early retirement. The Cards would soon discover that replacing the talented signal-caller would be an extremely difficult task.
