As a way of trying to gauge the in-season fan reactions I'm re-posting this poll. Nothing has really changed since the end of last season except for a couple of games that either reinforced your opinions or perhaps tipped you off a fence. So, let me first reiterate some of Norv Turner's Charger history and stats then let you vote.
Norv Turner was hired as head coach of the Chargers in 2007. He inherited a team that went 14-2 the year before, but was knocked out of the playoffs after only 1 game. As the Chargers head coach he's had the following records:
| Year | Record | Result |
| 2007 | 11-5 | Went 2-1 in playoffs. Lost to Patriots in AFC Championship Game. |
| 2008 | 8-8 | Went 1-1 in playoffs. Lost to Steelers in Divisional round. |
| 2009 | 13-3 | Went 0-1 in playoffs. Lost to Jets in Divisional round. |
| 2010 | 9-7 | Missed Playoffs |
| 2011 | 1-1 |
In Progress |
The following can also be noted during his tenure:
- Came in with a reputation for a developing quarterbacks and has overseen the growth of Philip Rivers.
