NFL Props: The Sad State of Being Norv Turner

READ MORE: Dick Vermeil, Herm Edwards, NFL Prop Bets, Norv Turner

tall_turner_oak.jpgMost of the sportsbooks this year have varied on whom they think will be the first NFL coach fired this year, but universally it’s brow-beaten schlep Norv Turner, head coach of the Oakland Raiders. BetUs.com released its odds and, not surprisingly, Turner is at the top of the list getting 3/1 odds of getting canned this year. A surprising second is holy rolling New York Jets coach Herm Edwards at 5/1 odds, followed by only-happy-when-he’s-crying Kansas City Chiefs head coach Dick Vermeil at 6/1.

That guy could be completely out of footbal and working at a hardware store in Des Moines, but he would still inevitably get a call from some league’s GM at the season to get fired. The prop bets going into this season for first NFL Coach to be fired or resign are all over the place with the Oakland Raiders’ Norv Turner, the favorite to be axed first. However, the SharpJuice likes the pencil-mawing giant Mike Tice, head coach of the Minnesota Vikings as the first to go at 12/1. Obviously, he’s not a believer in Mwelde Moore.
