thanat0s Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Adam Shein listed nine players he has no trust in for the stretch run to the Super Bowl. They are...1. Joe Flacco2. MICHAEL TURNER3. Ben Roethlisberger4. Marshall Newhouse5. Russell Wilson6. Tim Dobbins7. Christian Ponder8. Ndamukong Suh9. Larry FitzgeraldAdmittedly, there are a couple guys there I don't recognize immediately. I think Big Ben is all about injuries. Flacco was a guy catching an easy pass away from the SB last year, so I don't get that. Poor Larry is trapped in no man's land in AZ. Suh is just flat overrated and isn't a difference maker in any part of the season.Turner at #2 was intriguing. I knew he'd make the list, but I didn't expect him so high. what do you think? Too high? Should he be number one? Have a totally different nine players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Falcon Jedi Knight Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I trust Turner to get about 15 yards on 20 carries. So yea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobyd77 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Turner has done a lot for this team, but do to his lack of run production lately, he won't be much help. Plus Turner has yet to even show up in a playoff game. so with that said he can't be relied on the way we use to rely on him in years past with the new scheme we run within the offense.

MondayNightRedman Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I disagree about suh being overrated. Every time I watch him he is bullying lineman around in the course of the play and has 2 guys on him most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiccolas Cage Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I'm so disappointed in Turner this year. I knew that he would taper off especially with Dirk's new philosophy but I had no idea that he would be under 30-50 yards almost every game. I just didn't see it.

If this is another attempt to continue to bash a player we have heard enough. we know he's lost a step and we get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
