CHOCTHEFALCONFAN™ Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I agree I hate how he starts off his run! - But dude it was the Steelers Defense! - Thats why nobody should assume we would just dominate the Steelers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyBirdNorth Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Looks like he was running in quicksand..Looked to me like he was running against a great defense. The Steelers run defense was excellent today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suave G i B Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Turner is AFRAID to pound the rock.IF he hits the tacklers hard early, then he can truck them later on. He is looking to cut back the cut-back, or turn the corner when the DB is already blocked out.It is painful to watch him run, and I've said this for over a year now.I smell fear.Pump him full of painkillers during warm-ups, something, anything I mean Geezus Ka-ryst.

Blitz28179 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Turner needs to change his # to 45 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharma Initiative Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Turner had chances to cut outside or go to another open spot and instead chose to ram into the line to see if he could pop out on the other side. Horrible running decisions from him all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripedss Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Turner had chances to cut outside or go to another open spot and instead chose to ram into the line to see if he could pop out on the other side. Horrible running decisions from him all day.One trick has no vision, no cut back ability, all he knows how to do is run north and south.

CHOCTHEFALCONFAN™ Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Wow I was negged for telling the truth! - Thanks to who ever evened it! - Some people on this board just don't want to hear the truth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb4242 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Looks like he was running in quicksand..He's looked like that since the end of the 08 season. Our OL doesn't help any with their pathetic run blocking. We still get no push from the OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atljbo Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 ppl go look at how many running yards the Steelers give to RB's... Last year the best back in the League Chris Johnson had 57 yards rushing against the steelers. Ray Rice is the only RB to reach over a 100 yards on them last year.I'm not making any excuses because im pissed also... I dont think Turner is tippy toeing... Dude was looking for a hole to run in... the O-Line didnt create any holes.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Falcon Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 i agree with this thread. I keep hearing how he is faster again this year, but he looked SOOOOO slow today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcon057 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 i agree with this thread. I keep hearing how he is faster again this year, but he looked SOOOOO slow today.It was called walking to the line of scrimage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point_Blank Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 He did look a bit slow, but we did play a good defense. Pros to the Steelers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dilkin Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 i agree with this thread. I keep hearing how he is faster again this year, but he looked SOOOOO slow today.Yes, he looked very hesitant out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskokas finest © Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I too didn't notice any of his supposed quickness. Add to that he was particularly indecisive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_ATL Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 He looked the same that he always does against a good defense, ineffective. I don't know if it's him, the o-line or a combination of both. Either way, it needs to be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dilkin Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I too didn't notice any of his supposed quickness. Add to that he was particularly indecisive.Well he will hopefully plow through the Cards defense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statick Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Yes, he looked very hesitant out there.You would be, too, if the o-line couldn't open up a hole for you and your cutback lanes were gone. The o-line got beaten on run blocks. The Steelers plugged the running lanes pretty good yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illest_will Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 meh, even when we had holes, he wouldn't burst through them. people were constantly tackling him from behind, that's a problem with hitting the hole hard, not a lack of hole.

cyofish Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Looks like he was running in quicksand..He ran like he was afraid of fumbling. He was often running with both hands wrapped around the ball. There were a couple of runs where it looked like he prematurely flopped to the ground after a hit. Almost like what a runner does at the end of the 4th quarter when the teams has the lead and is just trying to run out the clock. I wonder if he was intimidated by the Steelers defense. That being said, the Steelers DL was just blowing up the running plays. They didn't have a problem shedding blocks and plugging up the running lanes.
