Re: Norv to Return to the NFC Beast?

stevo395:

Are you old enough to remember Ray Handley?

How about Wayne Fontes?

Does the name Richie Kotite ring a bell?

Surely you recall Richie Pettibon, no?

Dave Campo?

Marion "Swamp Fox" Campbell?

Leeman Bennett?

Joe Kuharich?

Abe Gibron?


I will NOT try to say that Norv Turner is a good NFL head coach because his career says he is not. But the "worst"? I don't think so...

Hey now, no swipes at Richie Pettibon! He did knock the snot out of the superbowl-bound Cowboys that year on MNF. He just struggled in the next 15 games. Yet another Superbowl QB -- Rich Gannon -- let that team. Imagine if Gibbs had stayed 4 more years with Gannon rather than Norv drafting Patrick Ramsey?

Do you mean Heath Shuler? No matter, neither of them were any good but please keep your wasted first round QB picks chronologically correct.

Norv didn't draft Patrick, Mr. Spurrier did

Re: Norv to Return to the NFC Beast?

UPDATE:

JJ has sought and gotten permission to interview Norv, shortly after hiring Jason Garrett (Aikman's 1990s backup) as Dallas OC.

Norv is coming....Norv in the middle of TO, Tony "Willie Beaman" Romo, and JJ should be QUITE entertaining. Just hope that he doesn't develop a RB, and they'll be soft.

One thing about Norv, he knew how to run the ball as Stephen Davis, Ricky Williams and Frank Gore testify. He would have been a better OC under Gibbs for "Redskin football" than you know who.

Re: Norv to Return to the NFC Beast?

Norv isn't going anywhere, at least not to Dallas. Garrett was hired to handle the offense and be a HC in waiting. Jones is going to hire a 3-4 DC to be the interim HC and get the defense in shape by the time Garrett is set to take over.

2. Has experience dealing with completely useless "superstar" WRs (Michael Westbrook) and Randy Moss in Oakland.
i would'nt call westbrook or moss useless,just very hard to please players.i think turner will be the coach,but since they have hired jayson garrett to be the OC.wonder if norv would still call the plays,or just work with the QBS?
