Looks like Norv turner getting fired
 

According to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune, it would require a "miracle turnaround" for Norv Turner to stay on as the Chargers' head coach in 2012.
"It will take a miracle turnaround for Norv Turner to be the coach beyond this year," said Acee on NFL Network's Around the League segment on Monday. The Chargers have dropped five straight games and are in last place in the AFC West. ESPN's Jerry Rice also blamed Turner for the Chargers' 2011 collapse on SportsCenter Monday. "Norv Turner is one of those coaches that just can’t you over the hump," Rice said. "I played under this guy." The Chargers appear

Don't even think about it, Pioli.

damn.

Two openings in the AFC West it appears...

Maybe the Chargers will hire Turner Gill.

Well, it was a good run while it lasted.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Haley gets a pass...


as another chiefs heads to the IR

Norv Turner as offensive coordinator would be decent.

I'd like to see the Chiefs go back to the Coryell-style of offense.

Well that becomes one of the plumb job openings in the NFL.

cowher buying a house there?

Norv > Haley

Sad.

hes a motivator

Cam Cameron will be San Diego's next coach. You heard it here first.

Haley is fired
Jackson is a McDaniels in the making
& Fox is Elway's hoof puppet

How do you follow Norv Turner???




Marty Morningweg?

Naw man, I am content with scoring a field goal every three or four games. Best thing they ever did was get rid on Al Saunders. Makes me sick watching those guys score all those points. Real fans don't need to be bothered with all that scoring nonsense. It raises the risk of injury.

Weird scheduling quirk. The Bears play SD, Oakland, KC, Denver and Seattle in consecutive weeks. The old AFC West!

That is all..

Jeff Fisher + Norv Turner + franchise QB = winning

Do Not fire Norv

Two, may three, years too late.

why, he might be our coach next season

Norv>Tebow.

What's Al up to these days?

Using my amazing internet search skills, I've determined that he's the quarterback coach of the Oakland Raiders, believe it or not. I think we need to get him out of that hellhole.

Agreed.

I'd offer Al Saunders whatever he wanted to come back here.

False, give Haley that team and see how he does.

Any decent coach + franchise QB = Winning.

Fisher is my nightmare...

Al Saunders is the Raiders Offensive Coord

We're missing the most important piece of the Air Coryell Offense.

THESE!

Not even for OC?

Another emotional bullshit by Clay. Nothing new. Move on.

Fisher = another patch of grass on the other side of the fence. Why anyone wants him as our HC is beyond me.

I'd love to have him as our OC.

norv's stayed there a lot longer than he should of

good idea except Haley wont have a decent OC on his staff.

Maybe he'll have more time for other things, and more time for family.

pretty much any offense, but yeah

Better yet (for Norv)....

In my opinion, Haley couldn't get along with a guy who has been a head coach and is a qualified coordinator....see Charlie Weis.

Also, a completely different style of offense. I don't see it as a possibility.

Jim Hart?

sdutChargersS.D. U-T Chargers

RT @MartyCaswell: Bombs away- UT's Kevin Acee on why he believes AJ Smith will be gone & the latest coaching rumors http://bit.ly/vbuAEb



Looks like the chargers are getting rid of AJ smith

Damn I was hoping this bump meant that they canned his ass today.

If rumors are swirling about AJ getting the axe, Norv wont be far behind him.

I bet they are already talking to Cowher or another HC that wants control of personel.

Damnit, I don't want to face the Jaw twice per year. Sure hope that rumor is bunk.

Eh, overrated...

well this was only 2 years too late

This report really goes out on a limb.

I wouldn't worry too much about him.

hes the oc or offesive consultant in oakland

Fisher

Or Andy Reid.

You'd make him the head coach?

At the end of the day, system doesn't matter.

Talent matters, and, of course, talent at the most important position matters most.

I sure hope they don't fire old shotgun face. I want them to keep him around for the next 10 years!

People keep talking about Norv like he's some awesome OC.

What the hell has he ever done without the Dallas Cowboys? Jack ****ing shit. I could have coordinated that offensive cast. "Okay guys, we're going to run on first and second down, then throw to Irvin on 3rd down".

Holy complex offense batman!

Norv leans on the running game when the running game is not working. He leans on the passing game when the passing game is not working. He's done this everywhere he's been.

So unless Norv is bringing the offense from the 1993 Dallas Cowboys and a time machine with him, he can just go the **** away.

AMEN

Honestly, since the thought is they might upgrade to Cowher/Fisher/Reid I'm not too worried. While certainly better than Norv, the lot of them are overrated IMO.

Dean Spanos is going to eat a lot of cash to dump both AJ Smith and Norv Turner.

Of course he'll get it right back if the team moves to Los Angeles.

I wouldn't mind if Norv was brought in to be our offensive coordinator. He is a great offensive mind, just a crappy HC. Problem is I don't think Haley can co-exist with another offensive minded coach (and I don't mean Muir).

Ill never understand why he keeps getting hired as a HC? He was in D.C. for like 6 or 7 years and never did crap. Then the Raiders and well, thats not even worth discussing....yet the Chargers thought he would make a good HC. WTF????

Don't tell that to guys like Gailey, Cowher, or the Hoodie.

They've made a solid living off of making pigs smell like perfume...

And when it mattered most, the real smell overcame the perfume.

The Bolts will hire Herm and Matt Millen to replace Norv and A.J.

Every Chief fan's wet dream. The only thing better would be if Denver did that.

Unless you throw Marty Morningweg into the mix, you couldn't have more of a downgrade in this instance. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

2 out of those 3 got rings.

I'll take that smell...

Yes, but about anyone would be an upgrade over Norv.

Not the end of Norf ball
nooooooooooooooooooooo

Those guys got rings for precisely the reason Milk mentioned. Without the stud QB, none of them have won a thing.

Nice to see you back, Parker! Merry Christmas to you and your family man.

Look at every team he became the OC of compared to the year before.

I bet you that the improvement on offense was pretty good in every occasion.

He's a good OC, I remember he came here in 2001 as our OC and our Offense improved a lot. I know he went to Miami and they had a few playoff years with him as OC. Then he went to San Francisco and coached Alex Smith to his one good year before this year.

The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that Chargers ownership is unsure whether it is going to fire coach Norv Turner and perhaps general manager A.J. Smith.

It has been considered almost a certainty that Turner and perhaps Smith would be fired when the Chargers entered December on a six-game losing streak. However, San Diego has been one of the hottest teams in the league this month as it has outscored three opponents, 109-38.

The newspaper reports owner Dean Spanos is now conflicted because he likes the fight Turner has put in the team and Spanos was impressed by the fan support he saw in the stadium Sunday in a big win over Baltimore.

The paper reports that if the Chargers can go to the final week of the season in contention it could go a long way toward saving Turner’s and perhaps Smith’s jobs. Ultimately, getting to the playoffs is what ownership wants to see, but it is interesting that it has been influenced by this hot streak.
