Norm Chow FIRED

Your right,nows the right time to fire if you want to get a quality coach before they are all hired.

He sounds really surprised. That's pretty crazy, if it isn't acting. I mean, did he really think everything was going great?

At least he wasn't negative about the team or vince.

 

You make valid points. Hopefully the terminology will be the same, it'd be a big help. Tho we need Vince focusing on other areas, not learning a whole new playbook.

 

If I remember correctly it had more to do with just wanting the starting job handed to him, and his lying to Fisher.

 

I think it may be a good move, but it's not so clear. It's obvious to me that part of the reason the O was bad is lack of talent. I questioned Chow's calls sometimes, but I honestly don't know if I wouldn't call out most other OC's calls about the same. I've watched many games where I wondered what the hell the OC was thinking.

Chow didn't look really bad to me, and it's got to be a tough decision to change an OC with a young QB....so this seems kinda odd.

 

He said that? I must have missed it. Got a link or anything? I thought it was all about Volek vs Fisher.

 

I think it had a lot to do with Fisher getting his feelings hurt. :clown:

I do think I remember something about Volek saying Chow's offense sucks, but I'm not 100%.

Just find it ironic that Volek gets run out of town and two years later... Well, guess no one can succeed in Norm's O.


(All along I figured Volek ****ed Fisher's wife or something along those lines)


I bring up Volek a lot, and I know most people don't like him and I'm not sure he really would ever have much success as a starter. But it is one of the biggest incidents that started me really not liking Fisher as much as I used to. I think Fisher looked like the bigger chump out of the whole incident, but I know I'm in the minority on that opinion.

However I think it makes Fish look even more like a chump if he is validating what Volek complained about with Chow's O.

 

Interesting,"another direction" Jeff said to him. Maybe the pennys finally dropped and after seeing other teams throwing the ball around he's decided i want a bit of that. I know he loves his fisherball but who knows? ,he might be changing his mindset.I live in hope.

 

Ok, I'm searching for a link on the Volek deal....

Meanwhile, I found this which I find funny... nice addition to the Norm Chow legacy....

"Offensive coordinator Norm Chow said Collins has been such a quick study he believes the veteran could be ready for the opener on Sept. 10 against the New York Jets. "

Yeah, Collins was really prepared to start the 2006 season! LMAO.

 

Well there should be a rule: The offensive coordinator of any team whos kicker is All-Pro should be fired.
