I’m guessing the more insightful players, could see thru
what Martz was doing, which makes that whole tactic
more problematic.

Agree, but you still have to display the maturity and grit to take it because the goal is that important.

I don’t think he is completely honest there about what he was doing. Here’s the deeper story. Before camp, Martz wanted Justin to be the #2. Justin had worked with him before. Vermeil nixed that and said Warner was the #2. He didn’t ask Martz if Warner should be, he just said he is. DV said Justin could not even compete for the #2. Vermeil already knew who Warner was before 99–he had him there in 98. (Ironically, when Green went down, Justin signed as the #2).

Martz is famously abusive. It even showed up in how he treated cohosts when he was part of broadcast teams. So I think that was part of it.

I think Martz lit into Warner at least partly because he was pissed at being shot down over Justin. I bet he told himself that he was just putting pressure on him. And to an extent that’s probably true, because Trent Green told a story about how Warner asked him why Martz was so rough on him, and Green said he told Kurt ah he did that to me too in Washington.

I may not remember the Green story right. I don’t remember if Green told that story or Warner told that story, where he asked Trent about Martyz.

Oh, I totally agree.

I’m assuming there was an ugly scene in the new Kurt movie? Probly made
Martz wanna ‘explain’ things.

At this point, I imagine Martz actually believes what he’s saying
in that vid, though. Humans. “the brain is a self-justifying organ”

Remember what Martz said about Mcvay….(and then unsaid). He doesn’t come off looking good these days.
