Mike Martz
 

It seems pretty apparent that he won't be returning to the Rams. And most of the specultion I've heard has him going to the Texans.

But there is one team, one possibility, that really hasn't been mentioned. And it would be a PERFECT fit.


The Oakland Raiders.

If Norv Turner can't get the team to a winning record this year, Davis may lose patience. The team has done much to build themselves into a high octane offense, adding many players on the oline, Randy Moss, Lamont Jordan, and Kerry Collins over the past two seasons, but the offense is still underachieving. In Martz, Davis would have a coach that would go for the jugular, and make use of the Raiders 4 explosive WR's.

If nothing else, they'd be fun to watch.

I actually heard one ESPN columnist and a sports writer here in St. Louis bring up that possibility. While I would question Martz' ego working even somewhat smoothly with Al Davis, they could surprise you like Parcells and Jones have.

Get him in there and Kerry Collins is suddenly a Pro-Bowler and they'll be doing stories about how he overcame alcoholism and anger issues to become the first QB to throw for 80 TD's.

Lamont Jordan is also the kind of RB Martz likes in the wide-open offense.

Collins is a good QB but he'd never match what Warner did 99-01.

The only type of RB Martz likes is the kind that can block.
