ol'_dirty2 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 sit Turner in a playoff game in favor of Quizz or anybody else that has the hot hand? It could mean the difference in a win or loss. Don't get me wrong...Turner didn't lose us the game...I would actually argue that he had zero impact on this game. Just wondering what you all think the coaches will do in the playoffs if this trend continues into the postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerSteve Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Only death or dismemberment would induce this coaching staff to remove Turner as the starter for every game into the far future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Negatorris Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I like Smitty but I'm ready for him to make the hard decisions and step away from his comfort zone. You gotta give Quizz that starting job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dabirds Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I like Smitty but I'm ready for him to make the hard decisions and step away from his comfort zone. You gotta give Quizz that starting job.I'm sorry, but I've yet to see Quizz run between the tackles with any effectiveness. Not that Turner has been much better, but starting Quizz is not going to make any difference. We need talent that can hit a whole, break a tackle and have good enough balance to not be taken down by an ankle tackle like Quizz and Turner are both susceptible to. Someone needs to coach up our guys, or we need to snatch someone off a practice squad somewhere that somewhat capable abilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synaptic apoptosis Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I am having a hard time coming up with a starting RB that is worse than Turner. At this point he has nothing to offer the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high impact Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 You can say what you want. Truner is only half the problem. The O-Line cant block an old lady trying to get in the backfield. On a good day!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the runs that Turner gets stuffed on are just effort plays. Other times there's no hole to rum in, but there's a all or nothing thing going on with Turner and its nothing more often than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcondiehardsince 88 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I am having a hard time coming up with a starting RB that is worse than Turner. At this point he has nothing to offer the team.Thank god, the five posts prior to this one made me hallucinate with the rest of them who wrote the ****....................turner did absolutely nothing but waste a spot where a playmaker could steal focus from the defense, munch up meaningful downs and add yardage needed on the following to convert, waste two goal line carries that could have easily and would have easily been completed for the win, and actually throughout the entire game, the only time at all that i recollect the defense even looking like one was when turner was involved in some fashion. The **** was steel curtain on turner plays, and non existent with him out of there.am i the only one that noticed this????? REALLY???

tommysims67 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 turner does fine when we wear another team down but when down two scores its all about the pass...and he isn't getting any younger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falcondiehardsince 88 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 if you call fine 8 tries to go ten yds, Id rather have a lil better than fine, or swell, or manageable, or good, better, best, great, sweet, awesome, amazing, unreal, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtybird56 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Quizz isn't the answer as a feature back but if he can give us 3 yards instead if Turner's 1 or 0 yards that's all this offense needs2nd and 7 instead of 2nd and 10 and keeping the D honest on top of that is all we need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcondiehardsince 88 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 bro quizz had almost 10 yds per carry his first touch went further than turners last 13 carries and then some..........the line blocks fine, its what their blocking thats the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ol'_dirty2 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 THIS STAFF?dont you mean SMITH?Koetter doesn't strike me as the stick to tradition typepoint taken...not sure who's call it was for Turner to come back in on that last goal line play. If it was Smith or Koetter, whomever, somebody has to be able to recognize who's the "hot" back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joefalco Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 My question is why isnt snelling in there more? it seems he runs better between the tackles and is a more viable option in the flat for a dump off pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phattywankenobi Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Turner only had 13 attempts so obviously his role has been reduced. Honestly I don't think even Rogers would do well up the middle since the defenses are already in the backfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I don't think even Rogers would do well up the middle since the defenses are already in the backfield.You know I thought that too until i saw the saints running backs continually getting hit in the backfield and turn it into something positive. Hes too old too slow too fat and cant break a tackle. The guy is done there is a reason he isn't getting the touches anymore its because he sucks.

joenate Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 By the time our backs get to the line of scrimmage, there is a wall of 13 mfers piled on top of each other. they run right into a wall. no holes. no seams. no nothing (yep, a double neg). . .

sdogg Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Our OL flat out sucks. They play with no pride. Would not be upset if we used all our picks on OL. Maybe then we will get 5 guys that can push 1 yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
