If you want a guy who won't take any of Jerry's crap then that guy won't even be on the coaching radar. Jerry knows what he's doing, he's not gonna bring in any coach who will undermine him. He only did it for Parcells because they were desperate and in rebuild mode but now that there is decent talent, he will continue to look for puppets.

Norv is getting a little too long in the tooth to be considered for HC.....not to mention he wasn't very good at it when he got the opportunity.

Won’t happen, but it’d be a downgrade anyway. I didn’t want Turner back when he was a contender when Wade got the job.

I disagree. I think Norv would've been perfect for Romo at That stage of his career. The problem was Jerry was stuck with that 3-4 and needed a defensive coordinator that could run it. I don't think Jerry really wanted Wade to be the Head Coach at all but he was the best 3-4 coach he could get his hands on.

Norv would've had that offense humming with Romo , Owens ,Witten and Barber.

I have a bad feeling if JG is let go, Norv may end up being our next HC. Or at least pursued by Jerry as one of the top choice if Norv ends up doing a good job with Cam. He is doing a good job so far. The CAR offense is currently 10th in points per drive. Since JJ thinks Dak is Cam lite, he might think Norv can turn him around and may tried to get him away from Carolina.

He'll be an upgrade over JG but I prefer we get someone who will not take any of JJ's crap. I don't think Norv will do that.
After hearing about his stint with chargers from my brother I'd fear that hiring too. No better than Garrett

Chris Petersen has been my wish for years. A smart, and innovative coach. Would be a breath of fresh air around Dallas.

I don't think Norv would be interested, but if they continue to play well I could see Jerry looking at the situation in Carolina and seeing Norv as a cheap, quick fix. They also lack a true #1 receiver, have played with a MASH unit on the OL, and, up until now, their top TE (Olsen) has been out.

For the most part, though, Cam still looks like Cam to me (exceptional in moments, but not elite overall). If coordinators could truly fix veteran/experienced QB's, their salary would have another zero attached to it.
