Trai Turner

Did anyone notice how he looked last night? I know everyone was super focused on Benji and Ealy. But I'm curious how Turner looked, I'm just as excited about him as the other 2. Kid could end up being the biggest road grader on the right side we've had since Otah left.

He looked really good at times but had a few mistakes. The kid just turned 21 and he was playing his first NFL snaps, I think all that considered he did well and is going to be a beast.

This.  He is going to be special.  I did not notice a lot of movement by the Guards last night--hard to run without pulling etc.  Maybe I just didnt see it, but it looked vanilla from my couch.

I am not  someone that could overly critique his play but for the most part I thought he looked good.  There may have been some performances that  he could have done better but those things will come in time.  I do think that the coaches will take advantage of the preseason to get him as many reps as possible so he can be exposed.  At this point I think time will be his greatest teacher.

It was about what I expected from his debut.

 

We cannot forget that this was the FIRST game Ever for this group.  Silatolu was out last year, Chanlder and Turner are new, Bell is on a different side and Kalil has to hold this group together.  We have to remember this is unit.  They function as one not as 5 individuals.  You are going to have some issues after the first pre-season game.  The only thing we can hope for is to improve before September  7th.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
