Observers are saying that the Chargers look flat. They are not firing on all cylinders. They look poorly prepared. They are suffering from miscues on seemingly routine plays. They are playing without passion. The sports reporters have said it all this morning, but none of them have addressed the real issue.
The Chargers have an enemy within their ranks. This is not another Patriots Spy-Gate scandal. This is something much more destructive.
The San Diego Chargers hired Norv 'the Noid' Turner as their head coach. Turner is the Typhoid Mary of the NFL. As a coordinator, he is fine. But as soon as he takes the reigns as head coach, everything he touches turns to dust.
Need proof? Just look at the what happened when he was calling the shots in Washington. Need a more recent example? Look at Raiders, where he took the team to a 9-23 record during his tenure. Lack of talent was not the problem in Oakland.
Norv 'the Noid' Turner is the issue in San Diego. The Offensive line is missing blocks and getting blown off the line.. something that did not happen often last season. Tomlinson is being asked to run a power game instead using his ability to bounce to the outside. And Philip Rivers has fallen apart under Turner's command. watch the tapes from last night's game...on EVERY PASS during the game, Rivers kept his eyes locked on his target receiver... he never tried to 'look off' the defense, or even bothered to go thru his check-down receivers...he simply focused on one guy, and wonders why the defense was able to break up the pass?
The Patriots did not need any dirty tricks to win this game. They already had their secret weapon in place. Norv 'The Noid' Turner is going to drag the Chargers down quickly. The team that was on the brink of greatenss will soon be on the brink of a top 5 draft pick.
Future teams be warned.... AVOID THE NOID!
