The San Diego Chargers Will Fire Norv Turner

Certainly the Raiders have the easiest schedule, but ultimately it could come down to who wins the two Chargers v. Raiders matchups. Bolts need to win both or they’re likely out.

There’s still a gleam!

If I had to bet who’s going to unsuck first I’d have to bet on El Capitan. Mr. Acee needs to dig deep and find out who stole PR and replaced him with Matt Leinart.

Guaranteed, Buddy Nix will prove who the real genius was all those yrs. We will beat Chicago, Rivers doesn’t lose to Cutler.

I’d hire a new GM, A J’s picks have been busts. And, his first job would be to hire a new coach and fire norv, now. This season is toast. Time to start re-building for next year. But won’t happen. The re-building will have to wait till next year (at least) I wonder if A J had a deal worked out ahead of time with the Giants. If not, his gamble picking eli could have blown up in his face. Imagine if Rivers had gone to the giants.

Our play calling in the redzone continues to be a problem. KC has an awful defense and yet, Norv couldn’t find a way to score against them. Norv is still calling the same old plays and teams seem to know when they are coming. He has run out of tricks.

We had this game won and Rivers botched the snap…WTF..frankly, I am tired of Norv Turner and would like a coach that will bring the best out of his players. Norv doesn’t seem to do that. If we fire Norv, I hope to god Manusky doesn’t get the Job. As someone in here mentioned, ROB RYAN would make a competitor out of this team. Give him a try. I want a hard nosed, physical football team. Not a soft finess Norv tteam.

Teams have been taking away VJ, taking away Gates and Crayton is just not the same. Floyd is the only player that can help us, but he always gets hurt.

Our receivers are having trouble getting seperation, and when they do Rivers over throws them. I hope the Chargers look hard at Justin Blackmon. The talent level on this team is low. We had our chance in 06 and 07 and we blew it. Our next draft needs to be perfect, and AJ needs to stop being stubborn and bring in some talented FA players, with mean streaks. We need a dominant pass rusher, receiver, safety and Corner, OL and DL.

Our secondary seems to get burned at every crusial point of the game. and Our defense just can’t seem to get to the QB when we really need them too.

We have slow players on offense and defense. We need more speedy players, we need more aggressive players and we need a more aggressive coach.

RIVERS, GET UR SHIT TOGETHER…WE CAN’T USE THE EXCUSE THAT WE ARE 4-1, 4-2..GUESS WHAT, WE ARE NOW 4-3 AND HAVE GREEN BAY ON DECK COMING OFF A BYE WEEK..WOULD BE VERY WELL ON OUR WAY TO BEING 4-4..SCORE SOME DAMN POINTS.

I have been wondering if SB Nation has some agreement with the franchises from directly calling out the GM’s or head coaches. And defending them when the boards turn on them.

When they made the hire, I remember a quote from one of the FO guys, saying that he was brought in to get the team over the playoff hump to the SB, but they wondered how long that would last when we did not even make the playoffs.

Seems like a nice guy, seemingly a good OC, just not getting it done.

I think the Turner decision is grounds for canning AJ as well, though the question there is who would replace him. I don’t love his picks, but he is not horrible.

We should go hard at getting Eric Decosta..best damn guy for the Job. I know he won’t leave the Ravens, but he might for the right price.

Not that you’re not spot on with your reasons WHY Norv should get fired, but the sad truth is we here at BFTB don’t control the fate of the Chargers — on or off the field. AJ and Norv are BFFs. Plain and simple. And Deanos doesn’t have the cajones to shake things up as much as he needs to.

Oh, and one other thing. I’m sick and tired of the Houdini acts Norval pulls off! Last night’s game was a perfect example. I watched the first quarter and saw a team in utter disarray in all 3 phases of the game. I come back from Halloweening, and they’re completing a 2 point conversion to tie it! And he pulls the same hypnotizing crap in the second half of seasons! So while we’re all calling for his head NOW, he’ll win a few games in December to make us all forget. Please — Norv — for the sake of the good of the team — tank it in December so we can fire your butt!

a win is a win…..

wouldn’t that make it easier for the Spanos family to pack up and move to LA next year?? Start from scratch? If that happens….LA better give us the Clippers back!

that hat is constructed of fecal matter . Bon appetit !

On a side note should norv and AJ get the boot , I suggest Mangenious as HC and anyone from myself to a cardboard cut-out as GM . First off I’d fire all personnel people responsible for the Mathews deal , the English selection and general malaise permeating the Chargers complex , including John-John.

It’s a nice thought.

Norv isn’t the only problem but he does need to go. But so does AJ, even more than Norv, in my opinion. He’s missed far too many times in the draft lately and his track record over the last 3-4 years is questionable at best. Sad to say, but I worry that the Chargers’ window is closed. Gates will never play a healthy season again, they lack an elite WR, McNeil is in decline, Mathews has a very low football iq and very high propensity to get banged up and they don’t have many players on the rise. Just not a good situation any way you slice it. People keep waiting for them to regain their form of a couple of years ago, but I don’t think they can/will.

Rivers is the only one that can save Norv Turner’s job now.

At this point I’m REALLY hoping Philip continues his Year of the Eli circa 2010. If AJ won’t fire Norval, the axe should fall on him as well.

It looks to me like our scheme has been decoded and every team knows how to play our offense. The routes are predictable and there is no more exciting variety of plays. We are being dulled to death. I’m a big Charger/Rivers fan but I don’t even like this years team at all they are like Norv stuttering pricks.
So either the scheme no longer fits the players or the players no longer fit the scheme.
Bottom line Norv and Philip have never beat Tom Brady, Big Ben and now Rex the hex.
One definition of insanity is trying something over and over again and expecting a different result.
Hey but its Norvember right? I knew at the start of the season we would have to fight and claw to get 10 wins. It really doesn’t matter now does it?
Buddy Nix was the true scout not AJ.
We need to change our scheme/tendencies and scout ourselves to figure this out.

im not sure why everyone is surprised that the chargers suck this year? Norv has never been a winner . i know every one keeps saying well he won with the cowboys like 100 years ago .. yes but he was not the head coach… im not a super sports fan .. even i know norv has always suck … this is why i give no credit to AJ smith.. becasue he hired the worst coach ever… i knew when he got hired that they would never win a super bowl with this clown… anways i will have a party the day he gets fired.. why would some one hire a coach that was in the raiders it makes no sense

I say fire the bum
