I just read he's being interviewed for the vacant Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coaching job. Marty is 68, but the guy was fired after posting a 14-2 regular season mark with the San Diego Chargers in 2007 and never got another head coaching job in the NFL. The UFL doesn't count. Yes, they did lose in the playoffs. I don't think any NFL coach has been fired after a 14-2 regular season record?
His son Brian, currently the maligned offensive coordinator of the New York Jets just interviewed for the Jacksonville Jaguar job. The guy doesn't deserve it.
I believe the NFL is shying away from young punk head coaches. Going back to Don Shula's son David - they just don't work out. Recent petulant young NFL coaches that did horrible are my favorites(I'm being facetious)Lane "Baby" Kiffin and Josh McDaniels.
Tampa, give Marty another shot- he deserves it and he can hire his son as an offensive coordinator and groom him for a head coaching job if and when he deserves it...
