Marty-Ball Fired!

Brian Schottenheimer ran a pretty solid offense with the Jets this season.

 

How about a guy who coached with the Air Coryell Chargers back in the day, always seemed to have his name among candidates for jobs through the years, but for some reason never got one ... Al Saunders.

 

You do know that Saunders actually succeeded Coryell as the Chargers coach back in '86 or '87, right? I believe his first full season was the strike year, where SD got off to a hot start and faded miserably down the stretch.

Won't happen, but it would be kind of funny after going without a head coaching job all these years he would get another one with the Chargers.

 

Somehow, I knew I should have just left it non-time specific ...

 

Business is business and it's a great job, but I don't see Cowher taking it even after a year. At his resignation press conference, Marty Schottenheimer was the first person he thanked and it was pretty glowing.

I bet Chris Yandek gets the first interview with Marty. Chris Yandek said Chris Yandek has to interview a coach in the morning. (Just teasing, Chris Yandek.)

Thank you -- needed a good laugh after driving 300 miles after 11 p.m.

 

This had nothing to do with that, though.

This was a pure personality conflict.

That will get you canned almost every time eventually.

 

Not a terrible head coach at all.... just an awful talent evaluator.

 

How about Seifert?

 

I'd like to put a $10 spot on Lovie Smith. Probably won't happen, but it just means a smaller flower spread for the lady tomorrow.

 

First request as coach: Bring back the powder blues.
Second: Bring back powder blues leather helmets.

 

Matthew McConnaughey? After all, you gotta keep livin, man
Oh, and Wayne Fontes is dead, been that way for awhile, I think
