Don't listen to this. Bob the Huddler, who's sisters ex cousin-in-law is a vikings fan, told him that Norv is terrible and will ruin our offense.

And people elsewhere on the internet are blaming Cam for getting Shula fired and are saying Cam is uncoachable.....rofl

Guys on here have been over-reacting like crazy in a negative way to Norv.  IMO, I think he's gonna be good.  Goal isn't #1 offense, it's top 5 rush and top 15 pass, which both are completely doable with tweaks to our personnel and an intelligent approach to our offensive play calling.  First, lets remember why Shula got hired.  He wasn't the most qualified, he was the only one that would take the job since it was perceived that "Ron was a lame duck coach" going into his contract year after Chud left if I remember correct.  Good for him to be serviceable, but it's time to go.

As for Norv, Cam has experience with Air Coryell, don't throw out his understandable concepts just to "change" things.  Norv will ask him to be more judicious in the run game, but his pass concept will be the same, but maybe he won't run an aging stewart on a goddamn go-route and think he's being innovative.  He's also better and getting Cam to work on his timing of his throws.  If Cam wants to improve as a passer (which I think he does), Norv will be a guy to help take him to the next level.  In Minn, Zimmer conflicted with him so there were mixed signals, it's better to just let one or the other just run the show, and in this case, Norv will run the show, Ron will focus on the Defense with wilks.

FWIW, Norv helped make both V-Jax and Josh Gordon, helped Antonio Gates, and helped Darren Sproles, so he has experience with all the kind of weapons we have, aside from the athletic freak we have at QB in Cam Newton.  I think this can be dominant, and FWIW, I think the only reason he came back to coach was to help mentor his son to eventually take that position in a few seasons, so he knows his success will eventually be his son's success, giving him more motivation to succeed.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
