Marty Schottenheimer(sp?) Fired!

[EricStratton]

WLOX reported that Marty was fired by the Chargers today! 14 wins and 2 losses equals FIRED! What a crock of $hit! Don't even care about the Chargers or Marty, but this is a new low in the coaching world.

Probably because he let Drew Brees get away from him.

Well, he did pretty well without him, and I'm almost sure that wasn't his decision. Prolly the GM's or Owner's call. Spent a lot of money on Rivers, which makes for an expensive clipboard holder. Again, he was 14-2 this year.

I am glad Brees left, though!

I hope San Diego loses every game for the next 20 years. What a bunch of ingrates, he turned that sh!t program into a winner. They lost to the nearly unstoppable New England Patriots, one of the greatest dynasties in NFL history.

My dad hated the Houston Oilers for years after they fired Bum Phillips after making the play-offs, but I agree this one is a new low. From what I read, the owner was made because the offensive and defensive coordinators left for different jobs, including Wade Phillips taking the Cowboys job.

it was the owners call. i read the press release- someone at work printed it.

he said that they couldn't deliver a superbowl trophy to the franchise because he lost those coaches, but in a few more words
