Report: Chargers will keep Norv Turner in '09

ESPN's John Clayton reports that the Chargers will keep Norv Turner as their head coach in 2009.
Injuries and incompetent defensive game planning wrecked San Diego in the first half of the season, but the Bolts have won three straight and can steal the AFC West title with a Week 17 win over Denver. San Diego is already favored by eight in the game. Turner isn't much of a motivator, but the Chargers' front office likes him because he mostly stays out of personnel matters. If Turner falls flat again in 2009, however, that should undoubtedly be his last season. Dec. 24 - 12:50 pm et

I'm not sure what surprises me more.

Keeping Norval, or the EIGHT point spread.

Both are ridiculous, IMO.

Glorious news, absolutley glorious; the Chargers have found their Schottenheimer.

**noa** · 12-24-2008, 05:12 PM

Wow. Seems like a stubborn refusal to admit a mistake at this point.

Nobody sitting here can criticize Shottenheimer for what He did in San Diego. I know the whole "big game" deal, but he doesn't kick the field goals. what was he his last season 14-2? His offense and defense was very good....his recruiting was exceptional. He's improved at every new coaching assignment. Yeah, He's lost the big game....how long since we've been to the big game? I don't think that I would want him back here again, but I would make a strait trade right now.

So the Chiefs get a Christmas present from the Chargers. I'll take it.

**Rain Man** · 12-24-2008, 05:15 PM

Hallelujah.

Thank you Denver. Your collapse has done this division a great service.

This is great.

Their GM will settle only for a yes man
this is the opposite of Marty
and SDs doom

kcxiv · 12-24-2008, 06:20 PM

Haha, This is awesome. Great team underachieving and they are keeping their coach. I am sure Charger fans love this. As dude above me said, their GM wants a yes man, he has them.

That does need a correction, ergo; Schottenheimer WITHOUT the team assembling skills.

AFC Championship Game = BUST X2.

Chargers getting old with Wildcard the only hope in sight; Schottenheimer.

Case Rested.

Great news. Al Davis is still running Chokeland, The Rat, who has done nothing without Elway, remains in Dungver, and Norv Turner is staying in Sany Eggo. If we can just get a competent coach this offseason, the division crown will be ours!
