Front page on AZcentral Whiz is saying it is his fault and taking all the blame, so not sure where this is coming from?

A day after his team dropped its fourth consecutive game - this time a 34-10 debacle to the previously winless Minnesota Vikings - Cardinals head coach
Ken Whisenhunt said it's fair to put the blame squarely on his shoulders.
However, that doesn't mean he's going to change anything about the way he goes about his
business.
"How much blame am I willing to take? I'm the coach. We've won one game. The blame obviously falls on me," Whisenhunt said Monday.
"But I know what I believe in, what we believe in, works. And I know you stick to it. I remember probably four years ago, a lot of people banging on us, saying we weren't a very good team, and we went to the
Super Bowl. I believe in sticking with what we know works.
" . . . We're going to continue to work the way that we know can be successful for us and at some point, it will start working."
Whisenhunt also revealed that starting free safety Kerry Rhodes suffered a broken bone in his left foot and will miss several weeks. It isn't known yet whether Rhodes will require surgery, but he might, and Whisenhunt wasn't able to put a time frame on how long Rhodes will be out.
"It's not going to be season ending," he said.
Whisenhunt also responded to comments made after the loss by quarterback Kevin Kolb, who suggested some players may not be on the same page with the rest of the team when he said: "It starts with meetings. It starts with showing up to work on time, getting in early, getting your work done. All of that stuff that a professional is supposed to do."
Whisenhunt tried to clarify those remarks, saying, "That
has been happening," that players are working early and late and also on their own.
"I guess he's talking about doing it even more. We've been meeting after practice, before practice. We've been doing a lot of extra work, the guys have on their own in addition to what we're doing. I didn't hear it, but I would guess his message is we've got to put even more in get on the same page. It's good that you're quarterback is saying that. That's important."
Asked if players have been late to meetings, Whisenhunt said: "That's not been a problem. That's not something that I'm going to tolerate."
