You're half right. Joey T. did call him the best, but he wasn't the coordinator during our record breaking season.

To this day, Joe Theismann, who played for Walton with the Redskins, will tell you there might not be a better offensive mind in the game.

Walton had his most recent NFL duty in 1990-91, when he served two years as Chuck Noll’s offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers. When Noll retired in 1991, a new staff came aboard, and Walton went into the moving business. From 1983-89, he headed the Jets. Also among his years in the NFL were two seasons as the Jets’ offensive coordinator (1981-82), seven with the Washington Redskins (offensive coordinator 1978-80; running backs 1974-77) and five with the New York Giants (wide receivers 1969-73).
