The Facts:
The Chargers have gone 5-for-5 in interviewing head coaching candidates who've won a Super Bowl ring as either a player or assistant coach. The latest is Mike Zimmer, who met with Chargers executives on Saturday as they continued to search for a replacement for the fired Marty Schottenheimer.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Zimmer was hired recently as Atlanta's defensive coordinator after doing the same job for Bill Parcells in Dallas. With Parcells' status uncertain, Zimmer jumped to the Falcons on Jan. 9. ... Scheduled to interview Sunday is Gary Gibbs, New Orleans' DC. We had previously reported he would interview today, but Zimmer went first. Gibbs will end the streak of interviewees with a Super Bowl ring.
