Except, Norv Turner would get 7 or 8 wins with having most of his team healthy. Norv would take a 14-2 team and turn them into a 10-6 team, and eventually an 8-8 team. Norv never had to deal with the amount of injuries, at least not from what I remember, like what Gruden has had to deal with this year. And Norv had a better GM to work with.
Gruden hasn't been dealt a great hand. He's lost two 1000 yard receivers. His 1000 yard tight end never plays. He's went through running backs like they're disposable. The entire offensive line is injured. His number one draft pick out on IR. Other key members of the defense injured. Poor special teams play. Yet, Gruden has kept the team fighting hard, but eventually there's just too much to overcome. Firing Gruden won't fix anything.
