The NFL world is mourning the loss of former head coach Marty Schottenheimer, who passed away on Monday from complications of Alzheimer’s Disease. Schottenheimer was diagnosed in 2011 but it was not publicly disclosed until 2016. Last week it was announced that he was being moved into hospice care.
Marty was best known as the coach of the Cleveland Browns and Kansas City Chiefs, taking those two franchises to the postseason a combined 11 times over the span of 15 seasons. He had the Browns on the cusp of the Super Bowl twice, only to be denied by the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship Game each time.
