I dont care what anyone says, Marty Schottenheimer has to be the most underated coach in the history of football.
I know the guy has never gotten past the AFC championship game before, but you have to look at the big picture.
Everywhere hes gone, an undeniable trend has taken place.
He always leaves a team in better shape then it was when he got there, and when he does leave, the teams he leaves nevers reaches the level that it reached when he was there.
Cleveland has never been the same since he left.
Kansas City has never been the same.
One of the biggest mistakes Daniel Synder has made in Washington was getting rid of Schottenheimer after only one year, he did go 8-8 in that one season. I have to think, if he was still in Washington right now, the Skins would be no where near 4-9 right now.
Now look at him in San Diego, he has brought that team to levels that it has never seen before. They are the favorite to go to the SuperBowl.
There are only a few coaches in NFL history that I rank above him. WALSH,Parcells,Belliachek, Lombardi, Peyton etc.....
He is trully a great one, but always gets bashed. Kind of like Bobby Cox.
