the team that takes him needs the best coordinator in the world as an insurance policy... its a big risk that could cost millions if he has health issues midseason, and its not like the stress of running a crappy 500$mill team back to respectability helps that any...

maybe as a consultant or assistant coach, i doubt he'd be hired as head just based on the risks involved.

Marv was an excellent coach with an excellent GM in Bill Polian.

And, interesting to note, he replaced Dick Vermeil as Redskins special teams coach back in the early 1970s. I think Vermeil might have been the first ever special teams coach in the NFL after George Allen introduced the idea right?
Smootsmack you must be a little younger then me. Marv LEvy was the 1st special teams coach for the redskins in 1971 under George Allen. Which makes him also the 1st in the NFL. This particular staff went on to become quite famous. Mike McCormick who built the Seahawks and the CArolina Panthers and was also Head Coach of the Colts and Eagles. (NEighbor of Mine Growing Up), Charley Winter (Weeb Eubanks Son-Inlaw), Ted MArchibroda famous Colts coach, Boyd Dowler (Packers Pro Bowl Reciever) and someone not so famous in the NFL but a huge part of the Redskin history is Lavar "Torgy" Torgenson, one of the best all time defensive line coaches.

George Allen allways took credit for all of those punts we used to block but MArv was the archetict of those great special teams. Boy when was the last time we had at least 2 punts blocked in a season?
