Back when all Martz had to do was gameplan, strategize and build tactics to score, guy was a genius. He designed an offense that was amongst the best to ever grace the NFL - and he did it with Kurt Warner at QB... not exactly Dan Marino back there, except for his years with the Rams in Martz' offense.Fast foward to Martz being head coach, and his many many weaknesses FAR overcame his schematic (sp?) genius. Far too much ego. Loss of brain in play calling. Just awful game management (time management and time outs for example) overall. Not a coach to rally the players either, Martz went from Genius to fool while going from OC to HC.Can anyone else think of a similar situation elsewhere? Back with the Browns, Belichick would have been a candidate for this, but wow, has he shown himself to be HC capable since then. What coaches were great coordinators, but those skills simply did not translate to HC for them?
