F Norv Turner. F his inability to keep a locker room in check. F his 0-7 start. F his blown 7-1 start. F him
Why do you have so much hate for Norv????? He's a good guy, just not a good head coach. If there is anyone to be angry at it's Snyderrato.
BTW... not sure if you heard John Cooke on the radio yesterday but as I listened, there is no doubt that we'd be in much better shape than we are today.

Whoa nelly. While we can't say for sure what John v Snyder would look like. One thing we do have is a track record for Norv. San Diego is the epitomy of a Norv Turner coached team. 14-2 under Marty. Norv came in and it has been backtracking every year. If Norv had stayed, or continued his years here, fans would have screamed just as loud for his ouster, and cursed Snyder for keeping him.
Norv is an OC, a good one. Not a HC, not at all, not a good one.
See this cracks me up. Marty got fired cause he couldn't get along w/ the GM but he also couldn't advance in the playoffs. That's all that matters.....what you do in the playoffs. I'd rather go 8-8 and advance then go 14-2 and not win a game. Norv is certainly not the HC Marty is, got he's got something Marty doesn't....3 playoff wins. Marty has 0.

Marty has 0.So the end game for NFL head coaches is...gross totals of playoff wins?
It's a good a measure as anything else, but just seems sort of arbitrary to say, "yeah, but how many playoff wins does he have?"

LOL. I think he's a great guy but he blows as a head coach. And sometimes you just have to be blunt
I root against norvelle even though I like the chargers, simply because he came here & brought in H. Ellard & then told Monk there wasn't a spot on the roster for him. Not saying it wasn't a good coaching decision, but I'm still bitter about it.
He also drafted westbrook at #3 overall & we passed on Sapp et al. I know it's easy to knock picks that didn't pan out, fact is all teams have them, but at the time I just questioned his wanting a wr so bad when the defense was in such need & there were several top d prospects.
Plus, I always hated that a cowboy was our HC & he brought in cowboy players. It was a dark era for me as a skins fan, one in which I have to think too hard to recall bright spots & favorite players.

Imagine if we had done what Casserly wanted and had Dilfer and Galloway instead of Shuler and Westbrook
