Addison is great but there has to be a role for both
Juju and dionte seems like a relevant comparison - with dj being the juju role
He plays the same position as Addison. Turner has been great in that role with Addison out, but not so much out wide.
Blah blah blah it's a win for goodness sake. Some of you are miserable as well trolls.
Turner had one other big game early in the season then disappeared for some reason. Couldn't understand it.
Probably has more to do with Yellens play than anything else. It’s quite remarkable that he showed up Late Aug. and has been this successful. Would love for him to come back another year!
Agreed but that kid wants a chance to earn some money; he has a new born to take care of.
Because Pitt plays both Turner and Addison in the slot. I agree that he should have played more and move one of them out of the slot, but they haven't. Turner's 2 good games were when he played in he slot for Addison .
They absolutely did
I get they play the same position but are they not that interchangeable that u can utilize both? Does it have to be one or the other???
I don’t disagree, but if they’re not going to do that Turner should have been starting.
If we start turner and bench Addison, start guys like shockey, Wayne and mack instead, I’ll help Addison pack his bags and leave this program immediately.
The receivers that should be on the field (now that we are going empty a lot) and play the majority of plays:
Tipton needs to move on. Seriously. We need the scholly. I’m sure he’s a great guy but enoug is enough.
They have been keeping Vince Davis on the field in empty. Sometimes he stays empty and sometimes he shifts back as a protector.
You can do that, but quick and shifty guys who play the slot usually get covered by a 3rd DB safety or LB, so it is an easier matchup. Turner has not done nearly as well when covered by a corner and not playing the slot. I would actually use Turner in the slot and Addison out wide, but Pitt has chosen no to so that very often.
If Addison was OK with it, I would shift Addison to tailback.
And this thread officially comes to an end with this nonsensical post.
I was gonna say, I think Turner is the one actually built more like a tailback and could be a better fit (although I agree that moving either of our slot receivers to RB is unrealistic).
