Marty Schottenheimer/ Marvin Lewis- What Are The Odds On This?

Former long time head coach Marty Schottenheimer and current Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis have birthday’s today. Schottenheimer turns 69 and Marvin Lewis is 54. Here is the odd thing- what are the odds that 2 long time NFL head coaches would be born on the same date [different year] and are from the same small town? Both Schottenheimer and Lewis are from tiny McDonald, Pennsylvania [population around 2,000}

Marty Schottenheimer was an outstanding coach, in the regular season. Get to the playoffs and it was a different matter. his record in the regular season 200-126, post season 5-13. No one has won more games as a head coach and never coached in the championship game. Should Marty Schottenheimer be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame?  I don’t think so.

One response to “Marty Schottenheimer/ Marvin Lewis- What Are The Odds On This?

  1. Marty had some plain bad luck in the playoffs as well. Games where fumbles bounced away from his guys, and I saw a stat where his kickers missed something like 14 of 34 attempted fgs. Lombardi could not have with that luck.
