Yall remember when Sean McDermott got fired in Philly?  He was supposed to be awful for us. 

People here (a lot of them anyway) said he was a bad hire and sucked as a DC and a lot of us pointed out that the Eagles had bad personnel on defense.....so yea.

Now he's a HC and made it to the playoffs holding the other team to 10 points.....needs a QB and guy is gonna be a good coach.

yep. 

So Norv + Cam might just be fine.

and a revamped offensive line, healthy stefon diggs, a peaking kyle rudolph, athletic power back, adam thielen as a primary target. 

also, a defense that keeps your offense on the field, and great field postion.

Hard to use 2017 against Turner, same team but completely different roster.

a revamped offensive line because they got rid of kalil who is here now which makes it even worse

what athletic power back? latavius murray? yeah hes amazing...they lost dalvin cook in the first month.

they have had an awesome defense for 5 years. that hasn't changed.

rudolph's numbers are actually worse this year than they were last year

diggs played 14 games this year. a whopping one more than in 2015 and 2016 when he played 13 games

thielen was used heavily last year as well

norv is the major difference between the vikings this year and the vikings the last few years, he was the problem, they got rid of him and are doing better than ever under zimmer on offense

Your post just indicated otherwise, that he had the choice of the same job with each team and picked them over us. He picked the better position over the worse one, rather than choosing the Vikings over the Panthers...

That leaves the door open to speculation, and Norv Turner’s name is the most logical replacement. Rivera was interested in bringing Turner aboard previously, namely in 2013 before settling on promoting Shula from quarterbacks coach.

But Turner went to Cleveland with Rob Chudzinski instead, and being Cleveland, that didn’t work out.

Might have had the timeline wrong. I'd forgotten about him joining Chudzinski in Cleveland.

Norv stats

2014: 27th in ypg, 20th in ppg, 14th in rush ypg, 28th in pass ypg, 28th in sacks given up

2015: 29th in ypg, 16th in ppg, 4th in rush ypg, 31st in pass ypg, 25th in sacks given up

2016: Resigned halfway through the season because his offense still sucked. At the time of his resignation they were 31st in ypg and 23rd in ppg

This is gonna go great....

2017 Vikings without Norv: 11th in ypg, 10th in ppg, 11th in pass ypg, 7th in rush ypg, 7th in sacks given up

That's with freaking Case Keenum.

Man. With norv coaching since 1975 seems like alot of years have been left out of this picture. And im not sold on him either. Just saying your backup to your point was weak.

i think his most recent years are the most relevant given how much the game and offenses have changed recently. also its not super easy to pull all those stats from the NFL website so feel free to pull up his stats from the early 90s Cowboys with a HoF QB, HoF WR, HoF RB and the greatest offensive line of all time to prove me wrong

From '07-'12 he was a head coach. Does it really matter what he did a decade plus ago?

Can’t tell if you are being saracastic on Murray.... but last that i checked he has double digits touchdowns.

diggs was hampered by knee and hamstrings issues all last year... just bc he played doesn’t mean he was 100%. Due to his injury thielen was able to break out. Diggs was really a decoy more than anything else.

Rudolph is much more efficient this year, and isn’t being saturated with targets due to injury. 

Diggs was a rookie in 2015, and if anything Norv showed he knew how to use him. Which can be exciting with Samuel on deck......
