Marty downplays talks with Chiefs
 

SCHOTTENHEIMER DOWNPLAYS MEETING WITH HUNT

On his Sirius NFL Radio Show, host Marty Schottenheimer addressed a report from FOX’s Jay Glazer that the former Browns, Chiefs, Redskins, and Chargers coach recently met with Kansas City owner Clark Hunt regarding a possible return by Schottenheimer in a Parcells-style executive role.

“I had a conversation with the people in Kansas City but it was merely as ‘What do you think the situation is?’” Schottenheimer said. “Because I have a very long-standing relationship, I have great respect for Clark [Hunt] and others in that organization. And so we had some dialogue and I told them what I felt, how I felt about it. That was all.”

Meanwhile, Bob Glauber of Newsday mentions Schottenheiner as a possible candidate for the head-coaching job with the Jets.

Per Glauber, Schottenheimer has attended several Jets games in recent weeks. His son, Brian, is the team’s offensive coordinator.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For all the Marty haters this is good news I guess

I don't hate Marty
he's a rollercoaster I'm tired of riding
and outdated

Ive heard rumours that his son Brian is future head coaching material...

Marty and Bill with the Jets. Fine by me.

Wonder what he "thought of the situation"....

I posted somewhere on here speculating if Marty wasn't brought in by baby Hunt to give him some direction on his affairs. Marty is probably like an uncle to him or something.

I'm sure he was compensated for his conversation as well, at least in travel perks.

My thoughts exactly, I want this team to head in a new direction. I am tired of the old cronie syndrome that has floated around here. Bring in some new blood.

Sounds like you nailed it.

The timberwolf!

Clark, like a lot of us.... grew up watching Marty make his favorite NFL team successful.

It shouldn't be surprising that he brings the guy in to ask some advice.

I don't see anything wrong with that. Say what you will about Marty, but he does know football... and I'm sure he's got a better handle on which candidates could turn this mess around, than we do.

isnt that extremely close to what a interview for the GM job would be, talking about opinions on how to resolve the situation?

Marty would have us in the playoffs next year and the defense would definatly have a new attitude next year

Marty as a head coach may bring the D up to snuff
but Marty in a hiring role hires family members
there's a bad economy and sons/brothers we don't know about

I think it is pretty obvious Clark is in over his head with the GM decision. Pretty soon he's going to start asking Dictator Carl and Jack Steadman for advice
