The lions were wanting him to be their OC but some thing happened in the talks and walked out. Getting this from the radio once I find you a link I will post it. I thought he would have been a great fit there that team has a ton of young offensive player that need to play up to their skills.

Martz needs to be a head coach. He is way too qualified to be an OC. The problem is, Martz is almost the T.O. of coaches. He calls plays very well, holds a team together well, and is without a doubt one of the most talented coaches around today. His attitude, methods, outspoken nature, and lack of respect for authority continually get him into trouble though. That's why I think he has'nt found another head coaching job.

he said that he turned down the job because the money just wasn't there. i think you were right when comparing him to TO, stormdriver.

true, if the Lions ever want to have a good team he has to go.

I am not sure I would want him now if I was Lions.

I would. He's an outstanding coach. We'll see if he pans out though, he has caused his share of problems with other teams...

Well he's in Detroit now, I would think they have to turn around a bit and there is the talent, I always thought Detroit just needed direction and they seem to have it now with the staff they assembled...
