They made the playoffs only once, in 1999, where they lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the second round. Following his tenure with the Commanders, Turner went on to serve as offensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers in 2001 and Miami Dolphins in 2002 and 2003.
When the Oakland Raiders fired head coach Bill Callahan following the 2003 season, owner Al Davis hired Turner to replace him. Turner went 5-11 in 2004, followed by a 4-12 record in 2005, and was fired on January 3, 2006. During Turner's two years with the Raiders, he managed only one win against his division, the AFC West. In addition, Turner was unable to jumpstart an offense that, in 2005, included Pro Bowl wide receiver Randy Moss.
Perfect...
And both of those situations were crap. He never had a chance either place.
