Football coaching merrygoround: Mornhinweg, Millen get vote of confidence

Despite a 0-16 road record (5-27 overall), coach Marty Mornhinweg and president Matt Millen have been given a third year by owner William Clay Ford to run the Detroit Lions. Why would be a good question but you know that kind of honesty will not be forthcoming. Maybe Ford figured he’ll make the same money anyway, from attendance and TV, and won’t have to buy out expensive contracts.
