Quite frankly, I think he's out of the NFL because of politics... plain and simple.

Just look at his recent statement about his private conversation with the commissioner around Spygate. A guy who discloses that kind of information is not a guy who plays by the rules of the insider's club, and thus gets ousted pretty quickly. Martz transformed the game... for the better. No way he gets removed from "the NFL club" based upon merit. No, this was insiders politics.

For example, show me a quote from any of his star players that confirms Martz's supposed arrogance as a coach or as a man. There's just nothing to backup the personality or ego problems that the media extols... nothing tangible.

These are just outward signs of a man being railroaded.

There's a big difference between not understanding and not agreeing.

Maybe, I don't know how old some of the guy are here.

As you know, I've been watching this stupid game for over 50 years.

At first, I was good with Martz, but then the warts started to show, I eventually picked up on them. And so did the rest of the NFL.

I doubt if you can find one person who is not a Rams fan who wants Martz coaching their team. Invariably they think he's nuts.

Should Rams fans use other fans as any sort of gauge in regards to anything relating to the Rams though?

I really couldn't care less about what other fans and the media think about the Rams because their general opinion them is shit. Uninformed, disinterested, pretentious shit.

So yeah, most fans wouldn't want Martz but that means absolutely nothing to me.

That's fine everyone's entitled to one's opinion, IMO, Martz's body of work since he's left the Rams has not been what I consider would be a good fit for the current team, you feel otherwise. I've never cared what others thought because when it comes to sports I have always marched to the beat of my own drum, but in this case factoring age, history and body of work Martz would not be my choice, that's all.

I don't think Martz is nutz. I think that label has unfairly been cast upon him by a dysfunctional Rams front office, who threatend to slash throats and who would not let him speak to his team from hospital, and by the STL media. I also think that those who were close to him and also understand the game do not think Martz is nutz. Did he do things differently, like his use of time outs, yes. But I see that as a willingness to be different, a willingness to not play by everyone elses rules. For me, that's something to aspire to, not condemn. Medocrity is all that's achieved by those who are too afraid to break convention.

I don't think logic could allow me to surmise that. Since the Browns did interview him while they did not ultimately go with him the fact that they were even considering it would logically lead us to the conclusion that your statement is not as definitive as ya say and is based on your own perceptions. Which don't misunderstand me bro that is cool and why we are all here as lets face it if we were always right and saw everything for what it truly is we more than likely would not be on here offering our opinions and analysis...............LOL Anyway bro while I might not agree with your position I can agree with the drive behind your opinion it's the same one we all have we just want a better team sometimes we just differ on how we think that goal can be achieved.
