To this day, Joe Theismann, who played for Walton with the Redskins, will tell you there might not be a better offensive mind in the game.

Walton had his most recent NFL duty in 1990-91, when he served two years as Chuck Noll’s offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers. When Noll retired in 1991, a new staff came aboard, and Walton went into the moving business. From 1983-89, he headed the Jets. Also among his years in the NFL were two seasons as the Jets’ offensive coordinator (1981-82), seven with the Washington Redskins (offensive coordinator 1978-80; running backs 1974-77) and five with the New York Giants (wide receivers 1969-73).

After I wrote it I thought about it and checked into it, he was out in 83' my bad. For some reason I thought Joey T. had gave Walton credit for that season but the old memory was a little off on that one.
