Norv Turner seems to have a long, proven record of mediocrity, yet he keeps getting hired somehow. [/ QUOTE ] Norv and it's not close.

Re: who is the worst nfl head coach?
I know Bill Simmons writes a lot of nonsense about gambling, but seeing as we're piling on Norv Turner here, it's worth digging up this tidbit:
[ QUOTE ] Gambling is a part of sports; we may as well accept it. Maybe there are ways teams can actually use it to their advantage. For instance, Hopper once played blackjack in Vegas with Norv Turner, who spinelessly kept staying on 16 (ed: against a dealer 10) until my belligerent friend drove him from the table with a biting remark. After hearing that story, I thought Turner's coaching career made infinitely more sense. What football player would be inspired by a coach who stays on 16? [/ QUOTE ]

Re: who is the worst nfl head coach?
[ QUOTE ]
As for the teams he's run as OC, he took over the 2001 chargers offense and helped them improve. Well, that and the addition of LDT who took over for 2000 leading rusher Terrell Fletcher and his 384 yards. [/ QUOTE ] Don't forget switching from Ryan Leaf/Jim Harbaugh/Moses Moreno Platoon to Doug Flutie. And, of course we improved after Norv Turner left because we passed him up at HC for Marty Schottenheimer.

Sometimes you are supposed to stay on 16. Anyone who thinks otherwise should NOT offer advice on blackjack theory.

[ QUOTE ] 1. Turner 1a. Edwards [/ QUOTE ] How is Edwards worse than Crennel? Cameron? [/ QUOTE ] You can't be serious with Cameron. He's only coached 2 games in the NFL FFS and he's got a bad team. Edwards is terrible with personnel decisions and cannot make in-game adjustments. And don't get me started on clock management.

Just admit you/Simmons don't understand the proper time to hit v stay and move on. Simmons was wrong, end of story.
