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 http://rotoworld.com/headlines/nfl/2...ly-out-in-2012 |

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????

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.

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.

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

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. |

Report: S.D.'s turnaround impresses brass
December, 23, 2011 Dec 23 11:50 AM ET Comments50 By Bill Williamson 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. Tags: San Diego Chargers, A.J. Smith, Dean Spanos, Norv Turner |
