    It’s long been assumed that Marty Schottenheimer would like to get back into coaching. The power-run oriented coach has been out of the game since his adversary, Chargers GM A.J. Smith, fired him after a 14-2 ’06 season was wiped away by a one-and-done playoff loss. If ESPN’s Chris Mortensen is correct, Schottenheimer is returning to professional football…sort of. Mortensen reports that Schottenheimer is in line to become the next head coach and general manager of the UFL’s Virginia Destroyers. The 2011 season will be the Destroyers’ first.

    I thought Marty didn't want to coach again. I am surprised they didn't try to get Jeff Fisher or Dom Capers. I know that Dom Capers helped get the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans off the ground.
