Take away the 53 yarder against Chicago and the 61 yarder against Philadelphia and he's averaging only 3 ypa.

I realize this can be partially put on the o-line, today especially he didn't have any holes. And really, it's still true that our offense offense runs through Turner. I think he really should be getting at least 15 touches a game. Right now, Turner is on pace for 224 carries and that isn't nearly good enough. Sad to say, we need Turner to be getting closer to 275-300 carries.

Turner has been the only real bright spot at times.
