Here are the yardage allowed totals for the rest of the year, in chronological order — 393, 412, 423, 406, 344, 270, 299, 254, 358, 382, 323, 263, 390, 349.

It took until Week 8 for the Raiders defense to allow less than 344 yards. They allowed under 300 yards just three times, against the 14th, 18th, and 27th ranked offenses. Norton’s defense gave up 382 or more yards eight different times.

Another reason why it’s time to move on from Norton is due to his lack of adjustments. From both throughout the season, and also simply from the first half to the second half of a game. No team in the NFL surrendered more points in the 3rd quarter than the Raiders.

Even beyond the numbers, there is plenty of reason why Norton has to go. His situational play-calling is a disaster — such as not knowing when to blitz and when not to blitz, and he doesn’t understand the strength of his personnel.

Too many times, Sean Smith would play off-coverage. Anybody that has ever watched Smith play football knows he is a press-man cornerback. If you play him five or more yards off of the wide receiver he is covering, he is going to get torched. Which he did. Often. And honestly, you don’t even have to have seen Smith play to know that — just look at the guy, he’s massive.

Too many times, Norton put Malcolm Smith in one-on-one coverage with a player that he was clearly outmatched by. Too many times, even Khalil Mack was dropped in coverage, defending someone he had no business covering.

So for all of these reasons and more, Ken Norton Jr. has to go. It appears that Del Rio already may know that.



Del Rio’s noncommittal response about potential coaching staff changes really says everything there is to say — the writing is on the wall. Instead of providing a vote of confidence in his defensive coordinator, he instead gave a canned response that in no way answered the question that was asked.

And if there are any truth to the rumblings, Wade Phillips could be an option to replace Norton as the defensive coordinator. And even if not Phillips, there will be several other coaches available that will be an upgrade over Norton. Even an internal promotion to someone such as Jethro Franklin would be an upgrade.
