Chargers and Norv

SD will have to play one hell of a game to beat NE, I just don't see it happening.

John Butler was the GM before A.J.Smith.

Sorry I missed it.

Bottom line is. Do you want to win? If I recall the Chargers started the season at 1-3 and then 5-5, if Turner was so bad they would have folded, but instead they made a run for the playoffs and beat 2 pretty good teams in the playoffs one of them the former SB champs.

SD didin't fold cause;
1. They have one of the best RB's of all time
2. They have the best pass rushers in the NFL
3. They have one of the best CB that Marty S. hand picked in Cromartie
4. They have one of the best o-lines in the NFL
5. They get to play Oak and Den twice, Balt and Det. That's 6 easy wins for a talented team.
6. Not because of Norv Turner

What misery it was to watch the Bills in four straight SB's.

Seeing the pats in it every damn year is gonna suck out loud. Not saying thats going to happen but...

I predicted the upset a while ago, I have a feeling it may be a looong game next weekend though.

All this things you mention are because of John Butler and AJ Smith the GM's. Smith fired Marty for a reason. Are you sure AJ Smith didn't draft Cromartie? He traded Manning for Rivers was that also Marty, got rid Brees was that also Marty. If you love Marty so much how would you feel if your coach was 5-13 in the playoffs and never took you to the SB.

I’m not a big fan of either Norv or Marty but I think you have to give Marty some credit for SD’s success this year. If GW gets the HC job and we have a great year next year, I think a lot of the credit for that should go to Gibbs as well as GW.

I don't love Marty. I just think he's a better HC coach than Norv. I would hire Norv as an OC if I owned a team. But not a HC. And anyone who knows anything about football would probably agree with me.

The GM is the one who is at fault for not keeping Brees. He offered him a BS contract after he hurt his shoulder. NO gave him a better contract and he bolted. Marty wanted to keep Brees. The GM did not.

The owner fired Marty, not the GM. If I remember correctly Dean Spanos said it was a bad working envirnment, or something like that. The two could not work together anymore so he sided with the GM and Marty got the boot.
