redskns21 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Unexplainable IMO. I do follow the Chargers as they are somewhat close to where I live and I can't stand the Bay Area teams so I'm very bummed about this hire. I see no benefit to hiring him, especially for this team.

Fred Jones Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 The Chargers won't replicate what they had last year, but they have a lot of talent on that team and will probably add to it come draft time. If the Chargers can get someone like Rivera to run the defense they should at least win a few games. Close games and playoff games is where Norv will display his lack of head coaching ability.

jbooma Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Charger Fan has got be feeling "Norvous" right aout now...poor ****s have no idea about the sad sack postgame routines they are in for...I think the real story now is who does he bring in to run the D - Ryan or Cottrell? I completely disagree heck look what he was able to do in Oakland with that crap. Think about this if Norv can make Phillip take that next step, this team with a very good QB, LT, and their D is going to be sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimster Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I don't get why some people keep getting opportunities and others don't. I was hoping they'd hire Rex Ryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doom44 Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 They are now starting from square negative one....Makes our redskin organization look Like Chess champions.

skinzplay Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Don't be so quick to predict clouds of doom hovering over San Diego. I think Turner will be successful in San Diego because he can only be successful when he has what he had in Dallas: (a) an abundance of talent at the skill positions ( a strong general manager who has the final say on coordinators and position coaches © a competent defensive coordinator (i.e., Norv didn't pick him) Look for the Chargers to make it well past the first round of the playoffs next season. Turner's going to light it up with his play-calling now that he has Tomlinson and a great offense at his disposal. And, just to note, the offense the Chargers have been running the last few years is the one he implemented when he was there as O-Coordinator.

worstSeat Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 So what do people think? Are the chargers going to crash and burn? Or will they do well? I think they are in for some bad times personally. Depends on how much Norv has to do head coachy things. Norv's worst problem is he's a yes-man for owners. He had the Skins in the playoffs, a soon-to-be Super Bowl QB, and a brusing back playing Redskins football. What does Snyder do? He plays over-the-hill fantasy football with our favorite NFL team, mortagages the team's future for the first time, and benches Johnson for Jeff George. I have no idea why Norv catches Snyder's rub around here other than he didn't tell the boss "Hell, no." Norv can do fine. It looks like the reason he ain't in Dallas is because he finally grew a backbone and told *Jerry* the way the team should be run. Jerry said forget it; the Chargers said bring it on. Good for Norv. Btw, why isn't this Stadium worthy? It's an ex-Skins coach. That's enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsDukes Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 the funny thing is if he wins a superbowl in SD then redskin and dallas fans will never be able to complain about him again I'm more than willing to take that chance. he started to learn how to win here and then Danny took over In general, taking 7 years to learn how to do anything is grounds for dismissal, not praise. And apparently he needed remedial courses by the time he got to Oakland. Please don't blame Norv's ineptitude on Snyder. If anything Danny should have booted him the moment the ink was dry on the deal buying the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsDukes Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 no they are keeping things in place, it is the same offense as last year Really? Norv has no abandoned his Air Coryell roots and is going to play Marty Ball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything Danny should have booted him the moment the ink was dry on the deal buying the team. It took 7 years because of the mistake at QB once he had a decent QB we were a good team. Not all of the skins mistakes where his fault. As soon he figured out who to win then Danny gives him a bunch of washed up players. I think we would have been better off not making those moves and see what happened. Oakland was going to be a mistake from the beginning no QB, Randy Moss, and Al Davis.

jbooma Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Really? Norv has no abandoned his Air Coryell roots and is going to play Marty Ball? The old OC there played his offense. Mary had nothing to do with the O this year, he was like Gibbs a CEO type coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peckerwood Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I heard someone on the radio say today that they've been running that offense since 2001, when Norv was the OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peckerwood Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Like he's the only guy to ever make a mistake drafting a QB in the first round. Shuler was the consensus number one QB in the draft that year... him and Dilfer were the top two. Nobody could've known Shuler would be such an assclown.
