Marty Schottenheimer got a game ball by Jets coach Rex Ryan after last weekend's playoff upset of the San Diego Chargers, the team that dismissed the father of NewYork's offensive coordinator following a 14-2 regular season.
Brian Schottenheimer said he was touched when he learned of his boss’ gesture Tuesday—and joked that it didn’t even occur to him to do it. Marty Schottenheimer was fired in February 2007 after the Chargers lost their first playoff game despite having the NFL’s best record that season. He had 35 wins and two AFC West titles in his last three seasons in San Diego, where his son was quarterbacks coach from 2002-05.“It felt nice to pick up the phone after the game and talk to my father,” Brian Schottenheimer said Thursday.
Rex Ryan did the thing his father never did as a head coach--the Super Bowl. The Jets play Sunday in the AFC championship against the Colts. I love jets jerseys
