POST #8 Matt Leinart is definitely in the anti-Whis camp:Matt Leinart: Credit Kurt Warner for Cards offense, not Ken WhisenhuntBy John Breech | CBSSports.comJanuary 15, 2014 5:40 pm EThttp://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-foo ... whisenhuntKurt Warner was the man behind the Cardinals offensive success in 2008, not Ken Whisenhunt. (USATSI)When Tennessee hired Ken Whisenhunt on Jan. 13, Titans president Tommy Smith mentioned that he liked the fact that Whisenhunt had led the Arizona Cardinals to a Super Bowl and had a 'history of building successful offenses.'Maybe Whisenhunt should hire Kurt Warner as an offensive coach because that's who actually built the Cardinals offense, at least according to former Arizona backup quarterback Matt Leinart.During an interview on Fox Sports Live, Leinart was asked if he thought Whisenhunt would be successful in Tennessee and Leinart didn't just say no, he piled on."I don't think it's a great fit and I don't think it's great timing, and here's why," Leinart said. "You look at his tenure in Arizona -- only two years, he had success, and in those two years, Kurt Warner ran that football team -- I was a part of it."Leinart and Warner were teammates from 2006-09 and Whisenhunt was their coach for three of those years (2007-09)."Every single Monday, Kurt Warner would come in and implement 20 to 30 new plays, which he would say, 'I want these in my game plan.' We became a spread offense and we became Kurt Warner's offense. Then Kurt Warner retires, they go 5-11 twice and they go 8-8," Leinart said.Whisenhunt was fired in 2012 after one of those 5-11 seasons. Arizona also went 5-11 in 2010, the year after Warner retired.Leinart also said Whisenhunt doesn't deserve much credit for helping San Diego as offensive coordinator in 2013."Then you go to the San Diego Chargers this year, Mike McCoy had the offensive influence," Leinart said.
