Arizona Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt can't decide who he wants at quarterback.

The Cardinals coach announced Wednesday that rookie Ryan Lindley will start Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions.

John Skelton threw four interceptions during last week's 58-0 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Skelton was benched during the game and was replaced by Lindley.

The rookie quarterback has thrown five picks in two starts this season. Lindley was benched following a poor performance against the Jets in Week 13.

The Cardinals, who have dropped nine straight contests, placed quarterback Kevin Kolb on injured reserve earlier Wednesday.
