Chiefs offensive coordinator Muir retires

Football Betting Lines

02/01/2012 - Kansas City, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Bill Muir has retired, the team announced Wednesday.

Muir was named the Chiefs offensive coordinator prior to last season after spending the previous two years as the team's offensive line coach.

He coached a unit that ranked 31st in points (13.2) and 27th in yards (310.8) after losing starting running back Jamaal Charles to an ACL injury early in the season and using three separate quarterbacks.

"It has been an honor to be a part of this great league for so long," said Muir. "Over the years I've made a lot of great friends and worked with many talented players and coaches. This was a personal decision for me, the timing was right."

Muir had coached in the NFL for 34 years. Before joining Kansas City in 2009, he spent seven seasons as the offensive coordinator and offensive line coach with the Buccaneers, helping Tampa Bay to the Super Bowl title after the 2002 season.

In addition, Muir was the offensive line coach with the New York Jets from 1995-2001 and has also been an NFL assistant with Philadelphia (1992-94), Indianapolis (1989-91), Detroit (1985-88) and New England (1982-84), while also working as a scout with Tampa Bay from 1978-81.

"I am excited for Bill as he moves into retirement," Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel said. "I have known him for a long time and he is one of the finest coaches I've ever been around and an even better person. Bill is a very good friend and I have a great deal of respect for the way he worked. It was a privilege to work alongside him."

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
