Norv to Return to the NFC Beast?

[brent]

Old Dallas coaches are on Jerry's mind and Norv is coming off a great season as SF OC. Could he be back?

Consider:

1. Has experience dealing with 2 of the worst owners in football (Al Davis being one of them), can certainly handle a 3rd

2. Has experience dealing with completely useless "superstar" WRs (Michael Westbrook) and Randy Moss in Oakland.

3. Has turned so-so RBs like Julius Jones into superstars (Stephen Davis)

4. Has dealt the Redskins many losses

5. Is willing to run half the team, leaving the other half to the DC as in SF


How can JJ say no?

yes because every head coaching job Norv has ever done has bombed in disaster

I think he will receive strong consideration. Jones reportedly really regretted letting him get away.

Who knows, pair him with a top notch defensive coordinator... maybe someone also with some head coach experience, and maybe it could work. He is great with developing young QBs.

Turner had great success when they paired him with Ron Lynn and Mike Nolan. What world are you guys livin in, did you not see him for a head coach??? He was here 7 years to long. I hope the Cowboys hire him because at least we will be assured that the boys will not make the playoffs. He has done well at OC in SF, Miami, San Diego, and Dallas. But as a head coach he sucks. His record speaks for itself. JKC why did you ever bring him to DC is a question I always ask.

I think his past history before coming here was enough to give him a chance as a head coach as he was very successful in Dallas. It is the amount of time he was here that I would question. I just hope he does not become one of those guys who failed here but then came back and kick our butts. That would really suck.

Well, he is good with developing QB's. I wouldn't be surprised if Norville got the nod. He is a lousy couch, but a very solid coordinator.

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...

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.

Well, considering that his teams had about as much discipline as a submarine crew on shore leave in Tijuana it's hard not to blame him for Ferrote being a f**k up.

He aslo took us to the playoffs...If it wasn't for a Bad Snap the 'Skins would have been in the NFC Championship Game.... I was in Tampa that day and everyone in that stadium thought he would make that kick....
