I have to say yes. I just came back from the game against Oakland and... man.... my chargers were HORRIBLE. I've been bummed since Marty got fired, but this has gotten ridiculous.
WANTED: new coach. must do something besides "run up the middle" and "throw long balls" at nowhere...
grrrr...

San Diego honestly has to know that they had a better chance of winning a superbowl with Marty then Norv Turner. |

|  | Well, Ahoy Paloi | | Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Cape Cod, MA | | | I would say yes, but not sure who is the O-coordinator? This team is indeed a mystery. What Cheeszwiz said above is so true. |

Seriously, though....Norv is not a head coach. He just ain't, man...he's a coordinator.

...however, I do appreciate them being my team's farm team.

there are some player stats about teh chargers i'm sure can't be ingored ... there's plenty of blame to go around... it isn't all on coaches shoulders to make it happen

He has been throwing a lot of picks, the 2 pick-sixes last week against the packers were the difference in the game.
Gard- i hate to say you are right. 
I do agree with the argument that Norv is a great coordinator and a bad coach. I think he's had more than enough opportunity and talent but since we all know A.J. Smith isn't going anywhere i don't think Norv will either.

I was actually really happy when San Diego picked him up because I already knew how inept of a coach he was. Just took him longer to reach the bottom of the pile of suck than it did in Oakland. He benched Jerry Rice to give Ronald Curry minutes, and in doing so broke Rice's ongoing record of consecutive games with a catch. He should've never been allowed to coach again after that. |

He moved to San Diego and thought he had escaped Norv...then guess who got the coaching job.
He would dance a jig if they fired Norv. About every 5th email I have gotten from him over the past few years has had the subject line: NORV MUST GO!
