Are you old enough to remember Ray Handley?
How about Wayne Fontes?
Does the name Richie Kotite ring a bell?
Surely you recall Richie Pettibon, no?
Dave Campo?
Marion "Swamp Fox" Campbell?
Leeman Bennett?
Joe Kuharich?
Abe Gibron?
I will NOT try to say that Norv Turner is a good NFL head coach because his career says he is not. But the "worst"? I don't think so...
the lions were good when wayne was there

Yea, he's pretty much the worst couch I've ever seen.
I probably wouldn't have sat on him... no matter what kind of candy he was offering...

3. Has turned so-so RBs like Julius Jones into superstars (Stephen Davis)
Norv was long gone when Dallas drafted Julius Jones.

Hey now, no swipes at Richie Pettibon! He did knock the snot out of the superbowl-bound Cowboys that year on MNF. He just struggled in the next 15 games. Yet another Superbowl QB -- Rich Gannon -- let that team. Imagine if Gibbs had stayed 4 more years with Gannon rather than Norv drafting Patrick Ramsey?

UPDATE:
JJ has sought and gotten permission to interview Norv, shortly after hiring Jason Garrett (Aikman's 1990s backup) as Dallas OC.
Norv is coming....Norv in the middle of TO, Tony "Willie Beaman" Romo, and JJ should be QUITE entertaining. Just hope that he doesn't develop a RB, and they'll be soft.

Do you mean Heath Shuler? No matter, neither of them were any good but please keep your wasted first round QB picks chronologically correct.

Yes, I meant the candy man.

I love #4. Considering he dealt the Redskins most of these losses while he was head coach of the Redskins
Do you remember the 1st dallas - Skins game in 97? It was on a monday night & we won. at the end of the game Dan Dierdorf said something like "Norv Turner owns the Dallas Cowboys."
We'd won 4 of 5 vs. boyz (remember the sweep of 95?) at that point w/Norv, but It was a curse that I never forgot. After that, we went on to lose 8 st. to them, I think 6 or 7 of them w/Norv.
