I guess I will start the new year off on a good note by stating that I am happy that the Eagles brought Andy Reid back. It was laughable that they would fire one of the five coaches in the league that should never be fired as they have proven themselves beyond a doubt already. If Sanchez could have shown up for maybe a quarter and a half against the Giants, it would have been the Eagles playing this weekend when they were thought of as totally cooked about 6 weeks ago. Enough of that, let us get on to the real issues.
One of my first ever blogs on this site just over a year ago was how could the Chargers be bringing back Norv Turner, if you want to read it here you go.

It is almost as if the Chargers do not want to win. How much talent can you have and constantly lose year in and year out and still keep your job. If you like this guy so much, keep him as an offensive coordinator, he is good at that. Just don't let him be the head coach. The owner stated that Norv and AJ Smith give them the best chance to get back to the playoffs. No, the fact that you have an incredibly talented team and that you play in the AFC West gives you the best chance to get back to the playoffs. I could coach them back to the playoffs. For the record, I don't like AJ Smith too much as a person, or at least what he seems like as I don't know him personally, but I think he is not the problem as he has drafted some good players and picked up decent free agents. My dislike for him goes back to firing a 14-2 coach who lost his last playoff game on a terribly unfortunate play. I don't want to waste too much time complaining about Turner as it seems to fall on deaf ears, but at the minimum it gives me an outlet to vent. Thank you for listening!
