I don't care that he is isn't showing he is angry. I care that he isn't winning.

I don't care that you don't care that he isn't showing he is angry. But I do care that you care that he isn't winning.

I agree. I think we lost ten games in a row after Denny's tirade. Only good for a clip on sports center and maybe a beer commercial in a few years. Doesn't do a darn thing for winning.

I don't really care that he's not mad. I think that Kent is mis-characterizing people's reactions to Whis. People care that Whis isn't making changes to a system that hasn't worked in two years.

If Whis was doing different things, people would probably not be as mad. But Whis says that we're going to do what we know works, regardless of whether it actually does.

To be fair to Whis, before things started getting bad, we were utilizing the tight ends, running the ball, stopping the run, a lot of the things that people were complaining about. But this year, when things started being bad, Whis has gone away from the things that have been successful this season. Now we're passing the ball three first downs in a row, we're running the same plays over and over, etc., etc.

Just another round about way of coach saying, "The System Works."

That AND the fact that this team has always had their heart and toughness questioned under Whisenhunt since as early as 2008. Here it is in 2011 and they are still showing up late for meetings and having their toughness questioned and nothing has changed except now they are losing. I think Whisenhunt has lost control of the team and lost control of it a long time ago...if he even had it. That 2008 team at least had strong leaders in Dansby,Berry, Q to a lesser extent and Warner. Not only does this team have no heart or apparent desire to win they also have no leadership...at any level. This whole FO, coaching staff and most of the roster needs to be purged. There is nothing that can fix this except for a complete and total makeover.

100% this -- just compare this to the situation down in Tucson. People can rationalize any type of behavior when the results are there, and lambast any type of behavior when they are not.

As of last week Wiz is under .500 for his career as a head coach.
37 wins vs. 38 losses.

I don't think he should panic but he better start winning if he plans to be a HC next season.

Sando over at ESPN thinks the " Fire Whiz talk" from fans is just silly.

Gives a list of things that the Cards need to do to play the 2015

Super Bowl at their own house.

1 Invest first rounder in left tackle
2 Invest first rounder in a qb predator (olb)
3 Get rid of Adrian Wilson and replace him
4cant remember
5cant remember
