Why would you want him instead of Shula? He's basically the exact same. If you want to get rid of Shula then you don't want Norv. They run the exact same offense except Norv doesn't have the same rapport with Cam and the suite of running plays for him. This would be the most pointless change ever.

Now if you like Shula and leaves for somewhere else then he would be a good alternative but to fire Shula and hire Norv would be asinine.

Don't agree.  Definitely wouldn't say it was asinine.  The argument that it is the same offense can be to his favor.  There wouldn't be much change as far as terminology.  What separates Norv from Shula is his game management.   He knows how to "in game" adjust and Shula doesn't.  Think of all the games we had last year where we came out on fire and then the 2nd half we held on for life while the other team came roaring back.    That is because the other team made defensive adjustments and Shula had no counter for it.  NONE.

Turner hasn't been around the game all these years because he sucks.   He and Rivera also have ties going back to the SD days.

We won't do it but I have always thought Norv would do amazing things with Cam at QB.

Are you serious?.   It isn't the play calling.  I would wrap Norv Turner up in a minute for Cam.  He is far more innovative that Shula will ever be and that is on Shula's best day.

Innovative?  Not really but his QB coaching is top notch. I would have loved to have him 3 years ago for sure.

I'd really like to know the 'why' behind this.

It's totally out of left field.

Probably because Turner wants to run his offense and Zimmer doesn't.  Turner never been about defensive offense really

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
