Report: Cards are having “internal conversations” on Ray Horton

You know that thing we said earlier about the possibility that no head coaches will be fired during the season? That could be wrong.

Mike Jurecki of XTRA 910 in Phoenix reports that the Cardinals are having “internal discussions” regarding defensive coordinator Ray Horton. Given that the team’s defense has had little to do with the team’s eight-game losing streak, the fair inference is that the Cards are considering firing coach Ken Whisenhunt and promoting Horton to interim head coach.

If it happens that would keep Whisenhunt from matching Jim Hanifan as the longest-tenured coach in team history, with six full seasons.

Stay tuned.

It must have a lot to do with his courting of Kolb. That was a disaster. He hitched his wagon to the wrong horse.

Profootballtalk has been spewing a lot of rumors lately. Just yesterday they were talking up a possible return of Gruden to the Raiders.



Sorry about Fitzgerald dude. I'm right there with you.

Nothing will work in Arizona until they fix the QB and OL issues. Those are the 2 most neglected positions on the team.

They should promote Ray Horton to starting QB.

Whiz has had several years to build up that o line and draft a good qb and has failed miserably. He built a solid defense but that's about it. Other than that he has sucked. Would be good to see him go. Get gruden.

Jay Gruden (not Jon), Ray Horton and Winston Moss are going to be good head coaches I think. Would like to see the Jets and Cardinals each hire one of them.

Gruden definitely has experience taking over another coach's good defense.

I don't really follow how Arizona's operation runs so someone correct me if I'm wrong here, but I am under the impression Graves does the personnel decisions. If so, Whis is a fall guy for the real problem. The defense has steadily gotten better, but the offense has hit rock bottom because of the OL and QB, RB's not staying healthy too. Looks like personnel issues, not coaching.
