i will gladly throw this entire season away if it means we land luck.
my question is, if whiz was really gunning for butler, why didn't he know that pitt was going to turn him down? i'm certain someone from that FO has ties to whiz and could have let him know, "hey buddy, don't get your hopes up on making a run at butler . . . ain't happening."
Shouldn't it be clear at this point? The Steelers organization (maybe not the players, maybe not the coaching staff) did not like Whis OR Grimm. Both got interviews with the front office, and the front office hired someone from outside the organization. Since then, Coach Whisenhunt has done nothing by try and poach their staff. I'm sure that the Steelers' front office is sitting there letting Horton leave and laughing at Whis.
Maybe Horton is a quality assistant waiting to break out like Haley was. Maybe Mike Miller was someone that the Steelers hated to see leave and will turn around the league-second-worst offense that he helped spearhead this season. But the Cards did a wretched job managing expectations this offseason WRT the defensive coordinator search.
