First off, this is nothing more than a rumor (although extremely probable).

Since Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune is reporting this news, I'd say it's 99.999999999999999999% correct.

If this does happen..

Domino effect...

Please, please, please!!!!

I could report this news and it would be 99.99999999999% correct.

It was pretty common knowledge that this was their last chance.

The Chargers should have kept Marty to coach the regular.season,.then.brought in Norv to coach the playoffs.

No, it's not particularly weird at all. He is a terrible, terrible excuse for a head coach.

Can't motivate his players, way overconservative, coaches from the fetal position, horrendous time management, an offense that hasn't changed since 1992, etc.

He should be kissing the ground that Aikman, Irvin, and Emmitt walk on, because they've kept him in this league for almost 20 years past his sell-by date.

Hey!!!!

I'm trying to be optimistic.

MAYBE this will force Hunt to do something about Dumb and Dumber if Norv and AJ are gone.

cant wait till norv is calling our plays next year

Are you paying attention, Clark?

I still think he'd make an excellent offensive coordinator, especially if Geno Smith is our QB. Keep in mind that AJ Smith took a wrecking ball to Norv's offensive talent. Replaced Sproles/LT with Ryan Matthews. What used to be Vincent Jackson, Antonio Gates, and Malcolm Floyd at a distant third is now Floyd at first and a worn down beaten up version of Gates.

If you surround him with a head coach who handles the discipline and game management, surround him with talent, and allow him to focus primarily on being an offensive coordinator, think he would do very well as a coordinator.

Wow, 4 WCO guys. That's kinda rare to see so many all applying for a former non WCO place. Pretty cool IMO
