Whisenhunt Keeps Redbirds Self-assured In Football Betting
As celeb quarterback Kurt Warner has retired, NFL betting anticipations are mixed for the Arizona Cardinals and their 2010 NFL gambling prospects. NFL wagering handicappers will now assess if Arizona can make the playoffs for the 3rd consecutive NFL betting year with Matt Leinart in charge.
Leinart is a former Heisman Trophy winner who was selected 10th in total by the Cardinals in the 2006 Football Draft. In his 4 seasons with the squad, he has actually started for the Arizona Cardinals many times. In his first year he started 11 times, but then sustained a sprained shoulder during Week 16. For his second season, he started 5 games. His hold on the job, which was handed back to him in the course of the 2008 offseason, was precarious as a result of a formidable performance by Warner. Warner was named the starter when Leinart threw three interceptions in a matter of minutes throughout a preseason match. Nevertheless Leinart was named the starting quarterback for good after Warner retired at the conclusion of last season.
There may be doubt with bettors, enthusiasts, and some in the media but don't count Arizona head coach Ken Whisenhunt among the doubters. Whisenhunt has rapidly proven himself as the most effective Arizona Cardinals coach since Don Coryell of the 1970’s Cardiac Cardinals when the team was situated in St Louis.
There are plenty of pro football devotees and oddsmakers who never considered they would live to see the day that the Cardinals would be viewed as a normal and consistent NFL playoff betting competitor, let alone a Super Bowl team as they were in 2008.
Arizona is something of a longshot with the Football preseason probabilities to make the post season but Whisenhunt is still self-confident and eager for the 2010 season and the challenge of winning without Warner.
“I think every season in this league is an enormous test of your ability,” said the coach. “You could have everybody back, be really excited about your season and then have a couple of injuries and suddenly you’re tested. That’s part of being a coach, but I enjoy trying to meet those challenges.” Far away from being a “rah-rah” type of motivator, Whisenhunt is more of a cerebral figure that analyzes any situation with astute experience. Arizona might be a bargain value on the board with the football odds, or so do several odds makers think now considering of this approach.
“Maybe it’s the engineer side of me,” stated Whisenhunt, a graduate of Georgia Tech. “I tend to think about things from all different angles; try to analyze them until I find the best solution.” Whisenhunt commands regard from the team because of his humility and approach, according to star wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald.
“He’s not a jerk,” said Fitzgerald. “There’s a lot of different ways guys can handle being a coach. He listens and he respects you as a man so you have no choice but to do the same thing for him.” Whisenhunt is generous in spreading it with the entire organization and does not take the credit for Arizona’s recent Football wagering results.
“When you have success, everybody shares in it,” said the most productive Arizona Cardinals coach in a generation.
