Don Banks of SI.com reported that Cardinals head coach Ken Wisenhunt is likely gone in Arizona, while Jason Cole of Yahoo! Sports is reporting that he’s expected to be back for next season.

Peterson says this Pro Bowl pick most meaningful
Arizona's Patrick Peterson is headed to the Pro Bowl for the second time in his two seasons in the NFL.
This one, he said, means more because he has been chosen as a cornerback. Last year, as a rookie, he made the Pro Bowl as a punt returner.
Patrick, as confident as they come in pro football, says he expected the selection and considers it a reward for the hard work he has...

Horton was saying all the right things Friday after the team's final practice...

Mike McCarthy is 22-13 ATS in that spot since 2006. Mike Tomlin is 17-13 ATS in that spot since 2007. Sean Payton is 20-12 ATS in...
