Jerry Rice on the Norvator
“Norv (Turner, then-coach of the Raiders) was never really head coach material … He couldn’t control the players and guys like Charles Woodson walked all over him. Woodson routinely showed up for practice and meetings when he felt like it, along with some teammates.”
:mad: this is gonna be bad ..isn't it.

Of course it is. After 4 years of having a reasonable assemblence of order under Parcells, and having the organization run properly, Jerry is calling all the shots again. Let the good times roll!!!

Norv is a clown. I'll bet we dont see the turner defense force show up in this topic.

Who knows, maybe he'll let his coordinators take care of it. It would be nice to see Singletary knock around some heads in the locker room.

Then why even hire him for the HC spot?

May as well give it to Singletary.

I don't remember Jimmy or Bill ever relying on his coordinators hand out the dicipline. And I am sure Coach Landry never did either.

Because the 49ers would not let him go anywhere, so the only option is "Head Coach" until 2008 when Norvell switches roles with current "Offensive Coordinator" Garrett.

In all fairness to Norv, when the last guy Callahan tried to instill discipline and hold guys accountable on the Raiders ,they all *****ed to Ol Man Davis and Callahan was out the door. Tough to have a disciplinarian with a meddling owner who wont back up the HC.

You just described what we were before the Parcells hiring.Players bypassing the head coach and running to owner Jones.

What does Rice know about Norv? Wasn't he gone by then?

Well actually, Rice was there in 2004 for 6 games, so I guess he was. Rice was probably angry about 5 receptions over 6 game span, lol.
