Michael Turner, Lost His Burst?

[H8R]

I'm watching him and he's not hitting the hole at all. Very tentative and looks really slow. Maybe he needs to get into a rhythm.... not sure but he looks out of shape and limited quickness. Granted, the Steelers run d is very good but he just looks dead.

I would say give him until after halftime.

He's playing the Steelers. They fill up the holes nicely. Turner has no where to go.

Two 5 yard gains

Turner isn't that young anymore, even though he hasn't been a starter in the league for long he has been in the league for a bit. I don't watch Falcons games unless the Ravens are going against him so I can't so for sure if he has or hasnt lost his speed. I just know he's not a young buck.

If you've watched Turner in the past he's explodes through the hole. He's not a patient back but he's playing as such.

we play good defense and we spent the off season working on our run game

but with ben our passing game becomes elite

we can win games without ben.....but against teams like the ravens (who shut down everybodys run game) we need ben.

im afraid of people forcing us to throw to move the ball

which im sure is your gameplan, as it should be

He is definately not as explosive as he has been in the past. Lets just hope week 10 he hasnt found it again.
