Arizona Cardinals franchise receiver Larry Fitzgerald took to his website to publicly thank former head coach Ken Whisenhunt and general manager Rod Graves for their guidance and professionalism during their tenure in the desert.

The ever classy Fitzgerald said he and his teammates should all take responsibility for the Cardinals' disappointing 2012 campaign that began with such hope.

Fitzgerald fell victim to the team's quarterback carousel which limited his offensive production.

The 29-year-old Pro Bowler had just 71 receptions for 798 yards and four touchdowns this season but remains an elite superstar in the league.

    Maybe happy to the extent that this could bring a new offensive system, but I honestly don't think he would ever be happy those two are gone. I've never seen anything to suggest th at those guys didn't have the utmost respect and friendship for one another.

    That's just a ridiculous statement! I doubt anyone in there profession enjoys failure, and failure of team leaders and coaches.

    Not only has Larry never struck me as the sort of person who'd take pleasure from anyone's firing, my understanding was that he had a pretty good relationship with both coach and GM. Whiz took him to a super bowl, and Graves not only made him the best paid cards player ever, but made a lopsided trade for Kolb largely because he was the QB Fitz supposedly wanted us to go after, with rumors that he would leave if we didn't make a move. Say what you will about how good they actually were at their jobs, but these were two men who had Fitz back, I can't imagine he found this to be good news.
