Mike Martz?

Now that Kinnick has had turf for a couple years he can really bring back his "Greatest Show on Turf" offense again, instead of that cruddy grass my Bears insist on in Soldier.

Thoughts?
 


1. The artificial turf you see today plays nowhere near as fast as AstroTurf (which is what St. Louis has/had when Martz was there).

2. No thank you. Quarterbacks in his offenses take a beating, and we don't have much in the way of quarterback depth right now.
 










I have to admit, as a Bears and Iowa fan even seeing his name here made me itchy. Keep that guy as far away as possible. He's a football dinosaur with an outdated system. He's so smart that he eliminates the TE position as everyone else is emphasizing the TE. No thanks!!!!

they only take a beating when the line isnt very good. kurt warner seemed to stay upright quite a lot. martz doesnt want to run enough for kf. plus martz says he is retired.
 




Marshall Faulk said the reason Martz didn't do that well in Chicago is because he didn't have the talent he's used to. You really think he'd get that in Iowa City?
 




As the board's foremost expert on offensive coordinators, the only former Bears OC I would want is Ron Turner. I think he would provide the most continuity with O'Keefe's winning and proven system.

Marshall Faulk was a GREAT player, but this comment is ******** ... he didn't succeed in Chicago because it took him two years to figure out that 7-step drops don't work any more

Dude you are high TM hit the nail on the head his QBs take a beating! That would be the worst possible guy you could get besides KOK.

Actually Warner and Bulger after him got battered pretty good with the Rams. Yeah, a crappy O-line didn't help. It took Warner a couple of years as a backup to heal and return to form; Bulger never did.
 


I don't know why this is even being discussed. Martz would likely never go to the college level and he would certainly not consider Iowa. He couldn't be more polar opposite of what KF wants to do offensively.

i agree with this guy.
Martz gives more business to the century 21 rep than a family of ants during winter time. No way Ferentz hires somebody who won't also be there next year.
He also runs one of the riskier offense systems devised to mankind, which pretty much goes against everything Kirk Ferentz stands for as a football coach. Not a chance.
 


As a Bears fan I hope this never happens. I highly doubt KF even thought about Martz. Martz is a jerk and wants total control. That is partially why he left Chicago and KF would never allow it anyway. I think its time this thread goes away.
