Lol. It's strange how players and coaches are succesful before and after they are part of the Skins org. With the exceptions of course! Good for Norv.

I'm glad Norv won, but he has never really done that stellar before, during, or after with any organization. Marty built such an amazingly talented team that Norv didn't even really have to do anything.

What!!!! He was OC for the 92-93 Dallas Cowboys back to back Super Bowls! I'd say that's stellar!

????
Norv has accomplished plenty. He is a very respected offensive coach in the NFL. He game plans a game better than anyone.
Norv was credited for developing Troy Aikman. If you hear Troy talk he loves Norv and credits Norv for bring the Offensive system that developed in Dallas.

I'd take Norv or Zorn. Norv may not be HC material but he knows NFL offense. As long as you have a strong veteran team and a good defensive coordinator Norv isn't a bad HC.

He isn't a good one either. San Diego made the playoffs with the same record we had and a very talented team.

They made it ot the playoffs and beat Indy 11-5 team.
Are you going to take that away from them?

They didn't just beat a weak sister. They beat a SB contender.
Peytom Manning MVP of the league. Dwight Freeny highest paid DE in the league.

No. Like I said, they're a very talented team. Marty took them to 14-2 a couple of years ago and Wade took the Cowgirls to the playoffs last year. Very talented teams.

Yeah and they got beat in the 1st round of the playoffs. They are at home. Norv is preparing for next week.
Norv also did it without their two best players LT and #56 LB.

Yeah but they were real beat up with injuries. I'm not saying Norv is a great or even a good HC. But let's give the guy some credit. He knows how to run an NFL offense and has helped Rivers become on of the best QB's in the NFL. Hell he even got Alex Smith to play decent.

He gets his RBs involved as well, especially in the passing game, and he doesn't need great WRs to put up a ton of points.

Sproles is Superfly TNT.

Like I said, I think he's a fantastic OC. Ed Reed is probably the most valuable defensive player in the league in my opinion. If we could get more pressure on the QB and allow Rogers to use stick-em like Lester Hayes used to do, we could probably get more turnovers.
