Hopefully he's moving on to his dream job, with the Packers.

(I see you, Kerry). [&:]

Two weeks ago I'm sure you all thought Turner was the greatest OC ever. [&:]




Corleone -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 10:07:55 AM)

Should be an interesting Zimmer PC today. [:-]

You have to remember the reading level of the average Packer fan. You can see where words like "predictable" and "unimaginative" and phrases like "what the f*** was he thinking with that call" can be misconstrued as "cutting edge" and "great offensive mind".

I'm a Twins fan also, just saying. [:'(]

You aren't reading the Viking threads apparently. [;)]

God No. I rarely read any Packer forums either. As crazy as can get in here some times it's just not worth it.

BTW - If you guys couldn't figure it out, it was just a way to get a dig at Viking fans. I had no idea if anyone liked Turner or not. [:'(]




MDK -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 10:35:14 AM)

Turner = Gardy = Childress

Funny how Les Steckel doesn't seem so bad anymore.




MDK -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 10:36:30 AM)

Maybe Tony Sparano can join Turner with his own resignation.




TJSweens -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 10:46:02 AM)

I hate to say it, but Norv resigning doesn't fix this pathetic O-Line, which may well be the worst in Vikings history. When Kalil went down I said that it didn't matter because the LT play couldn't get any worse. Boy was I wrong.




SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 11:14:39 AM)

Pretty interesting presser
Zimmer taking no credit for forcing him out
The things this club has been thru keep piling up
An absolute disaster waiting to happen, normally.
We shall see how it plays out
First place club changes their co-HC basically, after several other season-changing events have already molded things.




SoMnFan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 11:26:12 AM)

My opinion ...
Zimmer doesn't lie or hoodwink
He did not see this coming. ( no pun intended)
Norv simply doesn't want to deal with the anger about his performance anymore, too old to fight it
Pretty sure Shurmurs been overstepping with the input, probably moving this along

Most experts saying this will mean a switch to more
Quick passes
Screen use
TE use

Been begging for all of that. Will be great if it results in it.




twinsfan -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 1:01:02 PM)

This is a sophisticated NFL offense

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRV!!!!

Just read an analysis of this, and also talked about Shurmur/Bradford relationship and how the setups should be for more West Coasts tuff.

Sorry, Norv, this line ain't the Dallas O-line.
More like the MN No-Line




TJSweens -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 1:08:57 PM)

I wonder if Shurmer can come up with an offensive scheme that doesn't require blocking. That would definitely help.




Black 47 -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 1:48:11 PM)

Me thinks there are things an OC can do to counteract a poor offensive line.




Black 47 -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 1:50:01 PM)

But Norv was going to stick with what worked for the 1992 Cowboys.

Within reason. Right now the quality of the blocking is so completely putrid, I don't know how much you can scheme to minimize it.




Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 2:11:27 PM)

"I have tremendous respect for [head coach] Mike Zimmer, our coaching staff and our players and at this time I think it is in the best interest of the team to step down," Turner said in a statement. "I thank the Wilf family for my time here in Minnesota and want to see our players and coaches achieve success."

After Turner surprised Zimmer on Wednesday morning with his resignation, Turner told ESPN's Ed Werder, "I think it's just we have different views on where the offense was going."

Zimmer said later Wednesday that he was "very, very surprised" by the resignation, and called Turner, 64, a "very good friend of mine."




McMurfy -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/2/2016 2:55:46 PM)

Norv Turner was one of the few offensive coordinators in the world who could make Brad Childress's offense look
Kick Ass!



On a side note, I met his daughter about 25 years ago in the student section at an Oregon game.
She was nice, pretty, and she knew football.

Personally I'd do this:

LT Long
LG Sirles
C Easton
RG Berger
RT Boone




Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/6/2016 1:15:24 PM)

That's a pathetic first half. I'm done watching.
