IMO saying Norv is not a good HC is not accurate. People forget Norv is the last Redskins coach to take us (Redskins) to the second round of the playoffs in the last 15 YEARS.
Not Spurruer, not Gibbs, not Schottenhiemer...Norv Turner did it.

NOrv also was HC in the black hole Oakland Raiders for only two seasons, where nobody wins. Not even so called awesome Shanahan couldn't win there.
So it needs to be put into perspective.

Someone is forgetting the 2005 season.

Norv was pretty much a joke when he was here, at least for the three years I was around him. Maybe he's grown some cojones since joining the Chargers

I did forget about 2005. They beat Seahawks 20-10 in 1st round.

The Redskins under Norv were not as much of a joke as they were under Spurrier.
