Norv Turner: Getting to know the Panthers newest coach

Let’s begin with the things we know about new Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator, Norv Turner. He randomly resigned from the same position with the Minnesota Vikings during Week 7 two years ago when the team began with a 5-2 record. He’s developed quarterback Philip Rivers into a regular season juggernaut despite very little success in the postseason. He’s a veteran of his craft and now, the new offensive coordinator for Cam Newton and the Panthers.

Turner first became an offensive coordinator in the NFL for the Dallas Cowboys during the 1991 season. He inherited an offense with only one Pro Bowl member, running back Emmitt Smith and a third year quarterback, Troy Aikman.
