The Facts:
OC Ken Whisenhunt was interviewed by Steeler officials for three hours Tuesday, and it was evident he doesn't want to leave Pittsburgh to be an NFL head coach unless there's no other option. "This is the place I want to be," Whisenhunt said. "I've been very grateful to be a part of this organization for six years and I'm just excited to get this opportunity."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Whisenhunt, who has run the Steelers' offense since quarterback Ben Roethlisberger arrived in 2004, and assistant HC Russ Grimm appear to be the clear front-runners to succeed Bill Cowher. Grimm interviewed Monday with the Steelers before meeting Tuesday with the Cardinals. Whisenhunt talked with the Cardinals last Friday and met with the Falcons and Dolphins. Atlanta has since hired Louisville coach Bobby Petrino.
