The NFL world remembers Marty Schottenheimer and his legendary motivational speeches

He was 77.

The NFL world is in mourning on Tuesday as longtime head coach Marty Schottenheimer died at the age of 77.

He won 200 regular-season games in a terrific career that included jobs with the Cleveland Browns, Kansas City Chiefs, the then-San Diego Chargers and Washington. He last coached in 2006.

The tributes continue to pour in from former players, fans and Hall of Famers, and there have been a lot of them who quote some his legendary motivational speeches before, during and after games.

There was a Twitter statement from CBS’s Bill Cowher — the former Pittsburgh Steelers coach who was a defensive coordinator under Schottenheimer — that touched on “There’s a gleam.”

He was referring to a speech Schottenheimer gave to the Browns:
