Norv Turner is a reasonable long term choice (i.e., greater than 1 year,) because of his reputation for developing young quarterbacks. "Screech" Rivers is precisely that. Hey by the way, can Shottenheimer coach receivers?
Norv is likely a stop gap, as he would have been in Dallas. It will be interesting to see if AJ gets the axe after the draft or is given a year with Norv and an all new blended or cobbled together staff to see if he can play well with others and Marty was the whole problem. Norv was prepared to butt heads with Jerry Jones at the expense of landing that job, so I doubt AJ will scare him.
I wonder what the Vegas oddsmakers do with this move?
Christmas comes early for the rest of the AFC I think. The only way I see this as a fit at all is that Norv does like to pound the ball. I can guarantee you that LT would have had more touches in the 2nd half against the Pats than Marty gave him.
But overall...I couldn't be happier than if I hired the Chargers coach myself...unless I could talk Art Shell or Dave Campo into it.
since i haven't understood much that the chargers have done in the last ten days, why should i expect to understand this. bottom line is that this is good news for us.
