    Get used to it. Ron Turner is a terrible coach. He absorbed alot of the Wanny stink during the 90's, then ran the U of I football program into the ground. He is not the answer as our offensive coordinator. His gameplan was fine today IMO. It was lack of execution. We can't block blitzes (a problem all year), and Rex was incredibly inaccurate. Being an NFL coordinator has little to do with head coaching a Big 10 school, so I'm not sure why you keep bringing up Ron Turner's U of I record. Turner actually did what few other U of I coaches have ever done---win a Big 10 title, so even if it was a valid comparison which it isn't, it still wouldn't make sense. We can't block blitzes? So find a workaround....shotgun, no-huddle, roll the pocket. Turner is a hack. You could just block the blitz better, too. Grossman also hasn't been able to throw well under pressure, which we all know. I'd like to see more shotgun too, however. Not just more gun, try a few rollouts, even a no-huddle set.(that slows down a blitzing Defense damn nearly every time). It is pretty pathetic as well that Benson only got 3 second half carries today. He was simply truckin New Englands D. Turner is holding back this team, not helping it.

    You're referring to Jamar Williams out of ASU. Still gotta take a Day 1 OLB if Briggs is gone, preferably 1st-2nd round. I possible cap-wise, I'd rather re-sign Briggs, then trade/release Oguneleye to save $$$(again there might be a cap hit). This guy has been non-existant of late. I'd rather start Anderson at LE personally.

    They ran the frickn ball down the throat of the #2 run defense in the league. The gameplan against the 3-4 is to run between the tackles and guards and not go wide against the 4 LBs. They did this superby. They sucked at first but they stuck with it and it paid off, i liked the patience there. They could of done better with cedric but thats a tad bit of splitting hairs. I was really happy with game plan of the runs today. I would of like one or 2 more screens but jones frickn jumped early and blew that one. Samuel had a very good game in secondary. Give the Pats some credit. I hate the Dick Jauron. "we didnt execute" excuse (in other words 'we called the right plays but the guys fd it all up'). But that was the major reason they lost today. At no point, did I see any attempt to throw off New Englands blitz package. Evertime it's like "well, lets hope we can block them all this time" Why not try the shotgun again, they only attempted it twice vs the Giants,(yeah, it didn't work those 2 times, but that doesn't mean you abadone the foramtion). What about runing a quick no huddle set? Its hard for a defense to execute alot of blitz packages from the no-huddle because they don't have the time to organize themselves. Sorry, but I'm pinning this loss on Turner, I want him gone.

    EVERYONE STOP BLAMING GROSSMAN! Do you realize Ron Turner is a freakin hack! A moron so dumb he got axed from U of I. HE DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO COUNTER A BLITZ! SHOTGUN, ROLLOUT, NO HUDDLE...FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! Plus someone needs to inform him Benson is the best RB on the team! TURNER OFFERS NO SCHEME TO COUTNER A BLITZ! HE SUCKS MAJOR! I'D RATHER HAVE SHEA AT THIS POINT! DID I MENTION RON TURNER SUCKS!
  7. Soriano12
    Ron Turner sucks. Sucks major.

    What an arrogant classless post. Can I ask what college team you chear for?
  9. Soriano12
    Ben Wallace = simply worthless
  10. Soriano12
    There is not much more I can say about Ben Wallace, he looks just so average out there. Crap, that contract is gonna kill us too.
  11. Soriano12
    I think Tyrus has way more upside (and Thabo possibly too). Offensively as well?
  12. Soriano12
    Weis is a cowboy, thats for sure.
  13. Soriano12
    Luol Deng is by far the best player on the Bulls and has the most upside. He is the future for that team.
  14. Soriano12
    PICK! 8)
  15. Soriano12
    Soriono has a chance to become an elite defensive outfielder.
  16. Soriano12
    A) when I wrote that, he had just been down for a second. it was not clear he was injured. my mistake. sorry. TD ND!
  17. Soriano12
    Walker appears hurt..yeah...that's funny. I must say the ND hate on this board is pretty pathetic.
  18. Soriano12
    Except when he pitched against the Cubs of course.
  19. Soriano12
    I like to throw out a big screw you to Willingham for that garbage defensive backfield he recruited.
  20. Soriano12
    Mark Prior will be out until mid -June(with whatever his current so called injury is), then make to 4-5 starts, before ending the season on the DL again with whatever new injury he decides to make up.
  21. Soriano12
    It would be just the Cub's luck that he got hurt.
  22. Soriano12
    Word.
  23. Soriano12
    any Soriono predictions for 2007?
  24. Soriano12
    I'm gonna miss those "football-like" spike throws.
  25. Soriano12
    I just don't get why those who subscribe to the new way of baseball thinking have such a hard time conveying their message. wait...yes I do. :lol: :lol:
