With three consecutive starts under his belt, Arizona Cardinal starting quarterback John Skelton is beginning to feel more comfortable in the position he has dreamed his whole life of getting. In his first start of his career he led the Cardinals to a victory over the Denver Broncos. After a disappointing loss to the Carolina Panthers in his second start, the Cardinals played the Dallas Cowboys on Christmas night. After leading most of the game, the Cowboys took the lead with under two minutes to go in the game. During the last drive, Skelton found Larry Fitzgerald on a 4th and 15 and eventually led the offense down into field goal range where Jay Feely kicked the game winning field goal to give the Cardinals a much deserved victory.
With all of this experience that he is gaining, Skelton is positioning himself as a legitimate answer to the Cardinals needs at the quarterback position in the future.
