LabattBlue Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 What a putz Martz is(courtesy of espn.com)..... ST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis Rams fired special teams coach Mike Stock on Friday and replaced him with Bob Ligashesky, who becomes the fourth man to try and turn around a unit that has struggled since Mike Martz took over as head coach in 2000. The Rams ranked at or near the bottom of the NFL in all special teams categories this season. In a season-ending 47-17 playoff loss at Atlanta last Saturday, the Falcons' Allen Rossum had an NFL playoff record 152 punt return yards, including a 68-yard touchdown return. The Rams also allowed an 86-yard punt return for a touchdown in a loss at Buffalo on Nov. 21 and a 94-yard kickoff return in a season-ending 32-29 overtime win over the New York Jets. Stock was in St. Louis just one season. He replaced Bobby April, who was fired in 2003 after three seasons. April had replaced Larry Pasquale, who was let go after one season in 2000. Ligashesky has coached just one year in the NFL, serving as assistant special teams coach at Jacksonville last season. Before that, he was an assistant coach in college for 19 years.
