Posted by Mike Florio on November 10, 2012, 12:27 AM EST The Kansas City Chiefs deny a report that owner Clark Hunt met Friday at team headquarters with former Chiefs, Chargers, Browns, and Redskins coach Marty Schottenheimer. Of course, that didn’t stop KCTV from speculating that they may have met elsewhere — even though the SiriusXM report that prompted the denial from the team was that Hunt and Schottenheimer met at Arrowhead Stadium, which doubles as the team’s headquarters. Schottenheimer coached the Chiefs from 1989 through 1998. He last coached in the NFL in 2006; Schottenheimer was fired by the Chargers after a 14-2 regular season and a one-game exit from the playoffs. Chiefs fans have been clamoring for a housecleaning by Clark Hunt. The Chiefs last made it to the playoffs in 2010, and they last won a postseason game way back in 1993. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/11/10/chiefs-deny-meeting-between-hunt-and-schottenheimer/
Well, that's what Marty's best at........ making a bad team respectable. Too bad for him, that's are far as he goes.
OK, I'm good with that........14/2 sure as hell would beat what we've seen throw up the last 3 1/2 out of 4 1/2 seasons no doubt.
If he was brought back it would be hilarious. It would be an admission that the last few years have been a complete mistake and waste (which they have been anyway I suppose).
Except that Martyball doesn't succeed in the current NFL model - and this is of course assuming that Marty has another batch of brilliant coordinators up his sleeve again, because history has shown (3 times in fact) that once Marty's initial quality coordinators with a given team leave him for greener pastures and promotional opportunities that his teams muddle and die (or would we like to refer back to that term in Washington when his coordinators were hired away, he brought in Kurt - like he was going to do here - and the team turned to utter dung?).
Norvyball definitely doesn't succeed in the current NFL model, that's been clear over the last few years.
2009 was practically a mirror image of 2006, minus the record breaking HOF running back at the pinnacle of his career. True story
