If Norv Turner Leaves?

I would like to see a shake up. I'm not satisfied with what we are getting from Cam. He is capable of doing more if we put him in the right situation.

 

But Norv is a bum. He's been coaching off reputation for 20 years. The Charges went downhill when Schottenheimer left. Washington Redskins? Cleveland Browns? Come on man.

Nope. Shula will probably be back next season.

Fans always hate their OCs. We hated Henning, then Davidson, then Chud, now Shula. If we hired Norv we would hate him too.

I liked Henning and Chud except his last year he was all about himself.

Henning was good, I liked him. Davidson is kind of like Shula. How could you watch us go 0 for 3 in the Redzone and say Shula is safe?

 

We scored TDs on 58% of our red zone visits this season.  That is good for top 10 in the league

 

9 of 16 games were against top half of the NFL defenses.

 

So one game doesn't make me want to fire everyone.  If you look at the entire body of work this season we were pretty successful on offense.

 

That is unless you judge everything by total yardage and/or total points.

 

We can still improve however.

Norv is a bum HC, nowhere near a bum OC. x10 Shula will ever be

I don't see much difference between Chud and Norv Turner.  They usually have lots of yards, but his teams also is near the bottom in INTs and turnovers.  It is all very much high risk, high reward

 

There is a reason why Chud and Norv teams always have a lot of yards, but not a lot of wins

    • So dumb I get it, they want to expand the reach of the NFL, but it's not the right sport to be playing games halfway around the world for a variety of reasons.   But one of the main ones is what happens if a player has an injury in that game? A lot of times, you're not supposed to fly right after some injuries, so when they happen here it's not a big deal, the player stays in that town for a few days and then flys home separately.  But that opens a whole bag of worms if the game is played all the way out in Australia. Plus just needing that long of a flight to get out there and back, even if they get a bye week after, it means a ton of travel and needing to adjust to a new time zone directly after another game.
    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
