This is ridiculous… Little did I know my post from last week would turn out to be prophetic. Apparently Martz tried to phone in a suggestion during the Rams surprising win on Sunday. I do find one part of this story unbelievable though. There is no way the play Martz wanted to call a running play. You know it was a passing play. Lets just establish that right now. There is no way Martz should be calling plays from home or anywhere else unless he is taking back over as head coach. If he is healthy, then get back on the sidelines or at least the booth. Dont try and undermine Vitt’s authority from behind the protection of an illness. Oh and apparently more than 60% of the people that voted on ESPN agree that Martz should not be allowed to phone in plays.

Now, since it appears that Martz is recovering and is at least healthy enough to phone in a play, can I point out the fact that Joe Vitt stuck with the run even while down by 14 points. Jackson got 20 touches for 90+ yards and the Rams won. I don’t think this is a coincidence. Fire Martz!

Oh and just as a side note, aside from the Vikings, is there a more ridiculous looking organization in football? This backstabbing, picking sides, he said/he said crap is just petty and needs to stop. The Rams need to clean house and get their crap together.
