Does Whiz trust anybody not a Steeler?
So trying hard and failing is better than succeeding to a lesser extent? I'm sure that Max Hall will be happy that's your position.
The Cards are now stuck with Ray Horton (apparently), who will have little credibility in the locker room because he's clearly not the coaching staff's first choice (or even perhaps second). Horton will be on a short leash for whenever Keith Butler actually becomes available again (as Bill Davis was).
Having a plan and failing to execute it? Isn't that why we went through three quarterbacks this season?

Rooney probably believes that Butler doesn't count because he's white.

You spouting off that Horton will have no "credibility" is idiotic. Just sour grapes on your part.
Shane that was dead on!! lol I needed the laugh, because it's better then crying, which I was about to do.
I still feel sick though.
Wait? Hs first two DC's were Steelers?
Why is it "idiotic"? Why "sour grapes"? The message has been clear that Whis had one candidate on his mind: Keith Butler. This is the second or third time he's been unable to get him.
IMO, Whis's continuing reliance on former Steeler assistants will be what ruins his future in Arizona, and possibly as a head coach with another franchise.
I have no idea whether Horton will work out or not. I sincerely hope he does, but there were certainly more qualified candidates who were passed over or allowed to accept other positions because this staff had fallen in love with a Pittsburgh assistant (again).
Better to have tried then never tried at all. Its like the guy at the bar who refuses to hit on the "10" and settles for the "5" every time. What is better occasionally going home with the 10 or bagging a bunch of fatties. Unless you are in to that sort of thing and more power to you.
You better believe the players know this is all a business, and that is exactly what happened. They are not going to feel one way or another about choice 1 or 2 as long as they guy comes in and they like what he does and does for them. The players know all about risk and will not fault Wiz or the new coach for it.
If you struck out with the 10 and now you're left with a 3?

Its only the 2nd time. Its idiotic because Horton is considered a quality coach in this league. You just spouting off saying that the players wont hold him in any type of respect is just off the charts and you have nothing to back it up.
Clancy was a holdover that Whiz never wanted. When he finally got to fire him, he hired Billy Davis, who coached the Steeler defense for three years under Cower. Yes, I get it that not every hire is a former Steeler, but pllllllllleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaasssssssssseeeeeee, this is getting ridiculous.

Cardinals officially request permission to interview Steelers assistants Butler, Horton and Packers assistant Moss. Teams have not responded

Why is the choice between a 5 and a 10? There were plenty of 8 or 9 candidates out there. The problem is that Whis is holding a flame for a high school crush who's married to someone else. That's never going to work out, and it doesn't matter how hot she is.

Todd Haley came to us via the Cowboys and never worked for the Steelers.
