Norv still has to agree to it.  Ron asked him about signing on once before and he chose the Vikings instead.

Pretty sure he wanted Norv as a consultant then, he wasn't going to replace Shula as OC. Norv took the OC job in MN.

Just now, Mr. Scot said:

Correct.

Your post just indicated otherwise, that he had the choice of the same job with each team and picked them over us. He picked the better position over the worse one, rather than choosing the Vikings over the Panthers...

I only said Ron talked to him about signing on here.  Didn't specify the job.

Norv stats

2014: 27th in ypg, 20th in ppg, 14th in rush ypg, 28th in pass ypg, 28th in sacks given up

2015: 29th in ypg, 16th in ppg, 4th in rush ypg, 31st in pass ypg, 25th in sacks given up

2016: Resigned halfway through the season because his offense still sucked. At the time of his resignation they were 31st in ypg and 23rd in ppg

This is gonna go great....

2017 Vikings without Norv: 11th in ypg, 10th in ppg, 11th in pass ypg, 7th in rush ypg, 7th in sacks given up

That's with freaking Case Keenum.

I'd much rather us go with new blood , young OC that doesn't already have ties with the current staff. Bring someone in for once based on their abilities/potential and not by familiarity/picking your favorites and friends. 

How is this any different from signing M.Kalil? Has had a bad track record in the last few years, may have been good once in distant past but recent history has been abysmal. Not sure why youd be excited about this .

That's with freaking Case Keenum.

and a revamped offensive line, healthy stefon diggs, a peaking kyle rudolph, athletic power back, adam thielen as a primary target. 

also, a defense that keeps your offense on the field, and great field postion.

Hard to use 2017 against Turner, same team but completely different roster.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
