Martz and Lions fail to reach agreement

Frankly I was surprised to hear that Martz would have accepted an OC position in the first place. He has the biggest (unjustified) ego of all NFL coaches. Did anyone really believe he would play second fiddle to a rookie Head Coach? He probably wanted either more control than they were willing to give him, or more money than the Head Coach himself woud have been making.

 

Without knowing the details of this broken deal, I would be more inclined to blame this on Martz instead of the Lions. We'll see...

sounds like martz was asking for $1.5 million per year. doesnt seem all that outrageous if you consider the redskins gave al saunders over $2 million. i'm not sure what marinelli's contract is for.

Weird way to go, first hear he accepts the job, then still working on details. athe it's a done deal. Now evidently he's not going to get the job. Somehow I doubt it's over the 1.5 mil, even with what Ford has already put out for coaches. Anxious to hear what the full reasons are, just can't see it being over 4.5 mil for a 3yr time frame.
