Re: Norv Turner sucks. Worst Head Coach Ever Best article I've ever read on Norv Turner, who's a terrible head coach but always avoids blame: Turner Attributes Poor Coaching Record To Poor Coaching
quote: Norv Turner, newly hired head coach of the San Diego Chargers, is being forced to defend his lousy track record just one day into his new job. Addressing criticisms of his 58-82 record in stints with the Washington Redskins and the Oakland Raiders, Turner claimed there were extenuating circumstances in both cases, namely that he was a shitty coach.
Obviously when you see '58-82' you think okay, this guy can coach to save his life, Turner said. Thats understandable. But try to remember that things arent always what they seem. Oftentimes a coach can be victimized by poor players, injuries, or just plain bad luck. That wasn't the case with me, though. I just wasn't a good coach. Luckily we have a lot of great players here who are capable of overcoming that, and I'm going to make it a priority to stay out of their way. So if we don't go to the Super Bowl, it's really just a matter of our players being unable to overcome adversity.

The Bears are also stuck with his brother Ron at OC, and he has yet to dazzle me as well. I realize the Bears don't exactly have the best offensive weapons to work with, and the players have been making a lot of fundamental mistakes... but when you have a 3rd and 6 and Ron Turner calls a short comeback route for a gain of 3 yards, it's time to start calling for heads. | |
