West Coast, Marty Morninweigh (SP?) was his OC. He's currently Andy Reid's OC.

With Vinnies previous experience with Mooch I'm wondering why he was not considered earlier particularly ahead of Fassel? With Zorns leaning toward a hybrid West Coast Offense why wouldn't a West Coast architect like Mooch be a likely choice to stabalize an area where the biggest shakeup will occur, on offense.

Also I've heard that both Fassel and Meeks have stated that their choice of OF and DF coordinators would be Zorn and Blatche. What are your thoughts on Mariucci having coordinators picked for him.

Marty was the head coach of the Lions during the 2001–2002 seasons. Mooch replaced him and got axed in 05 after three years on the job.

Per Wikipedia Ted Tollner was his OC in Detroit after serving the same roll in SF for one year.
