Norv coached the 3-4

[Dough Boy]

If I'm not mistaken, Oakland was a 3-4 team while Norv was the HC. Maybe this is why Norv feels comfortable assembling a defensive staff.

Or maybe he was talking out of his rear to get the job.

Norv isn't going to have sweet FA to do with the D.

 

[Gaede]

and they sucked at it too, IIRC

That may be the case, but he still was a HC that used the 3-4.

I don't think that's true. I think he will have a say. If he's chosen, then he will have a say. Why would Norv leave SF and come to Dallas to be a puppet. By all accounts, he has the good life.

Don't confuse my initial post as a Norv backer. I'm not sold on any of them. Each HC candidate brings his own mixed bag. I would have rather waited for Rivera, maybe Rex Ryan or the QB from the Colts.

It will not be Norvs Job to assemble a defensive staff... thats the HC's, I mean Jerrys Job!

I hope thats not true. I hope that whomever the HC is will have the ability to assemble their own staff. Now, I'm ok with getting Jason Garrett. By all accounts (and there were many) Garrett became a hot item over the last year.

The Raiders sucked a year after going to the Super Bowl ,Norv Turner did not crash the Oakland Raiders, he had two years with an incompetent roster and a senile owner.

Turner with one more good draft, schemes and talent playing to their potential can deliver a contender in the NFC.

Garrett too if he gets the job.

Fun Fact: The 2006 Dallas defense, bad as it was, would still rank 2nd or 3rd best among all the defenses Norv Turner has fielded in his eight full seasons as a head coach in the NFL.

I think if we're counting on Norv to fix this defense, we're tilting at windmills.
